Criticism is allowed. Undue flaming is not. Take a second to think your post through before you submit. Bans will be handed out. Should go without saying, but don't link restreams here either. | ||

It even counts when someone gets "bumped" and refreshes the stream as a "view". So I wouldn't put too much into that. MLG/twitch will be the only ones who know how many people coughed up $20 and they'll release some ambiguous statement afterwards about "meeting expectations" or "surpassing expectations" but other than that they won't release hard numbers. They'll do well this time around because it's a "new" thing, the true test will be what price it continues at and 3-4 events down the line once the new car smell wears off. | ||

I'm getting tired of hearing people complaining with there "First world problems". If you can't afford the MLG stream TOO BAD. Don't come into this thread to post the millionth post about why the Winter Arena should be free. I'm sorry if you don't have a job, you are paying for college tuition, and etc. Watching MLG Winter Arena is not a NEED... it's a want. | ||

The organizers may think that $20 is not a big deal for ppl who can afford a computer. However, they FAIL to realize that most starcraft players are STUDENTS, who have enough loans already on their bucks and certainly won't pay $20 (2~4 days worth of meal plan) to sit in their room. | ||

You are going to owe tens of thousands on college anyways aren't you? whats the big deal about $20. | ||
