I don't use Twitter, but I'm dying to know who's decision it was to have your hostess do that MLG mug bit with the Dr. Pepper. I know one of you orchestrated it. My friends and I were yelling at the screen to drink from the fucking mug already. The outrage.

extended series rule came from Counter strike, must have been influenced by the GotFrag team. Also it won't be removed, confirmed by MLGAdam.

Wow. 70% of Anaheim's streams were SC2.

Will be interesting to see what happens in Raleigh with LoL.

lol

Yeah, I know your stance on it TT

I know where it came from. Considering most SC players despise the extended series rule, I'm sure we could advocate change if we really wanted to. As the finals get more and more anticlimactic there will be no choice. Fortunately it didn't happen last time, but I see it being a problem more often than not.

extended series is the least of the problems. the worst is the abomination of point distribution so that people never fall out of groups after going 0-5, 2 events in a row. Get ranked in an early event with a fraction of the competition = lose out the season while staying in group play. It's disgusting.

edit: just read its being changed? Hope that's confirmed! Would make MLG so much better even though it's already great for the most part.

edit2: starting episode 2, <3JP.

Extended series is staying, but point system is being revamped.

It's to drive people to our Twitter, and to coordinate all questions in one place rather than multiple forums and avenues.
