And males between 18-24 is the audience that MLG can sell stuff to. Not a large part of their audience is much older, and below don't really have much money to use, or for their potential sponsor/advertisers to sell stuff to. So in that way that graph makes perfect sense. no mtv if anything has there largest audience between 18-24.. I watch alot of the reality shows. Who you think watches 16 and pregnant, jersey shore, real world challenges , 40 year olds? mtv is for younge people around the ages quoted here, That statisic is very impressive, however im curious how they actually know what age are the viewers ( this goes out to both mtv and mlg, unless a survey is done its just guess work) | ||

+ Show Spoiler + That being said, because of their low prize pools MLG should have lots of money in the bank. 2012 is going to be an awesome year. | ||

Pretty sure if something about Bieber was on, under 18 girls would of flocked to watch it on MTV or some shit. Wasnt VMAs on 1 of the weekends of MLG aswell? Surely that would of out rated MLG The graph might seem pointless to you, but it probably resonates with sponsors quite a bit, especially since it's focusing on the 18-24 male demographic, one of the most sought after demos AFAIK. And MLG does amazing in that regard. As for MTV achieving higher peak viewership because of VMA's/Bieber/etc, that's likely true, but that's also probably part of why MLG went with average quarter hour (I would assume over the duration of the tournament) vs. MTV's Nielson ratings for the same metric. After all, how often does MTV have VMA's? And how long are they? MTV may have higher peaks for brief periods, but what that graph is saying is that MLG has a much higher average viewership when it's "airing", so to speak. For sponsors, that's incredibly useful information - they can invest in MLG and reap a higher average viewership relative to MTV's standard programming for the same demographic. Might even be cheaper/more profitable than paying a crapload for a small ad to air during the VMA's or whatever. Anywho, my 2 cents. | ||

Actually you're kinda right about NFL games.... Hahahaa it really does seem like you see some record being broken in every NFL game, including the most obscure categories of records like "most pass yards after a third quarter deficit" and so on. That said, your jab/generalization concerning "American statistics, events, hype, ... so on and so forth" is uncalled for/stupid, just like the "sup Dreamhack" comment | ||

But grats MLG, you beat a Lanparty... No... The reason DH wasn't so high probably was due to scheduling over thanksgiving, and bad hours for Americans. But MLG's quality is good imo. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + It is hard to compare to TV though, because TV station are limited to 1 country mostly, unless you have a satellite but (in Belgium) almost nobody has that. | ||
