In the past I watched game till the finals ends. Like MLG somethimes ended 4 am. Now I just go to bed like at 1 AM and don't really care about the finals. Most of the time it's pretty obvious who is going to win. So that takes away the fun for me.

On a more related topic is there any reason that MLG did not work with the Korean teams with players in the event as far as the partner referral deals go? I like a lot of the teams, but not one of the teams with players in the event is a partner with the event. | ||

Anyway, I won't be watching. $10 for an 8 player tourney? No thanks. There are more casters/"analysts" at this than players... edit: On April 19 2012 18:12 feanor1 wrote: This is ridiculous, do we really need 15 pages of people to go on about how they don't support the move to a sustainable model. I mean we had a 200 page thread last arena, you saying you don't support it doesn't add anything to the MLG Details thread. Just wait for the Spring Championship and be happy that that is free. This ended up being $15 for both spring arenas and a portion of that is going to Grubby for me, Literally the price of one and a half movie tickets. Voicing our opinion surely helps, notice how it's $10 now and not $20? I think the issue many people have with this system (I certainly do) is that it really seems to milk the PPV for all it's worth. Not one but TWO arenas that are PPV only, the first of which only has 8 players? Seriously? That's a stretch. Not to mention no live audience (hearing the crowd is always great, the Korean players especially love the crowds), so it just doesn't seem worth it to a lot of people. Communicating that to MLG is the best way to get them to address it. Kinda like the crappy 'extended-series' rule. | ||

So you are saying that you will be streaming from the player's desktop? Not the method of having an observer follow a player's camera movements? | ||

would be fine with an ad-sponsored free stream like IPL This IPL has almost perfected the way fans that aren't attending the event can still view it. Look at the IPL that was in Atlantic City. The HD stream was FREE and the amount of talent and fan favorites they had there was insane. All they had to do was put up a bunch of ads and the whole SC2 community could enjoy this event together. Heck, for what we got for free they could have put up even more ads. I don't like this PPV model and would hate to see the day where more and more SC2 events turn into PPV. | ||
