The downside is that LoL viewers are used to free HD streams which MLG doesn't provide, so I'm not sure the LoL numbers for MLG will be at their usual high. Still, Providence will be a major stepping stone to eSports if all goes well. | ||

Pretty much every commercial had me refreshing 1-2 times because screen went black. Missed plenty of starts of games beacuse of it. Stability was much better in Raleigh. I had the same problem for the first two seasons that I watched, when I was being a cheapskate and watching for free. If you have $30 kickin around, you can purchase the entire year commercial-free. Best decision I ever made. The only problems I've had were universal stream crashes that were usually fixed within 5 minutes, if not right away. | ||

Oddly enough, one of the reasons that SC:BW works well on Korean TV is the Korean system for commercials is to do them in 5+ minute blocks. So you can run an entire game, then drop a bunch of commercials. | ||

181k unique concurrent viewers is respectable for a lot of tv shows with decent budgets. | ||

If so, the number is heavily inflated since most of us had two or more streams running at the same time except for at the end of sunday. no-- that will count as one unique concurrent view, but if you watch for an hour it will count as 2 hours total. | ||
