IPL, thanks for doing everything you can to provide us with good content. No pain no gain. While you may have pissed off a few idiots out there, you probably gained alot of loyal viewers.

What the fuck, you are thanking Blizzard? The guys who took an extremely important feature out of the game and fucked you over?

Just about half of the really important US LANs have had just horrible connection problems that wouldn't have been all that bad if Blizzard had LAN play available. I hope someone in the company is held accountable for the decision to not - at the very least - give tournaments a LAN version of the game.

The cables themselves generally run underground. This statement said a tower was hit, aka some sort of structure that probably takes many fibers and joins them together into one big link to go to some other city. The entire city wouldn't lose internet if just one fiber was taken out, this is more likely some sort of processing center.

Well actually Lani showed where the cables were broken and it was just cables in the air just being broken in two.

OT : Really unlucky IPL, everything is really awesome, hope this won't demotivate you to do more events in the future cause this was reaaally promising ♥

The connection issues are unavoidable alas, but you guys over there still deserves props for the stream quality that I have seem with my limited time. That and the fact I have several other streams to enjoy if I can't enjoy the games I want. So cheers to you guys :D

I like to think of this as a good omen weirdly, NASL season 1 finals had alot of issues and such on the first few days, and they brought us the most amazing finals we've seen to that day, here's to seeing the same happen for IPL!

LAN or no LAN, Dustin Browder has been trying to prevent accidents like this for some time. Perhaps this is the catalyst that will finally make people understand his obsession with destructible rocks.

Thanks for the continued updates!

Hope you can sort it out soon! I hope you will really put emphasis on VOD's for today's matches and maybe even get some of them casted from replays later on.

Thanks for the response. When I read about Blizzard being nice enough I think I got a little too hopeful for how I wanted that sentence to end.

Nothing but love for IPL. You guys are amazing; from the timely updates like this to the extra content, i think you've really stepped the game up.

I think the satellite trucks might be your next step though!

Can somebody explain to me what the OP means with whitelisting IPs or whatever? Somebody else said something about blacklisting too. I can't find any topic explaining it and to me it doesn't make any sense why Blizzard would have to do anything so you could use SC2 with a certain IP.
