Not saying anything is inaccurate because everything else looks great 2188 viewers, yes. But he only streamed for about 2 hours this month, and my list has a minimum requirement of 5 streaming hours. I mentioned that in the last couple of threads, but not this time. Hmm, it's probably a good idea to include all my requirements for the rankings in the OP every month to avoid confusion. | ||

They only spread creep and inject larva Because there aren't nearly enough amazing Protoss streamers compared to all the Terrans and Zergs who constantly stream -.-' Makes me sad when I want to watch high level Protoss play. Good thing I love White-Ra lol, but that's about it. Anyways, we all know EG wins | ||

I cannot differentiate between a caster and a player from the data I have, so I have to manually exclude casters. Some players also cast events on their streams, which usually gives them way more viewers than they'd usually get. In this case, however, I couldn't find any specific events that Neytpoh casted, and my memory fails me as well. So if anyone has any information on this, please let me know. Especially if he's really just streaming his own games. His average viewers for last month were 630, so if he's just a player he'd definitely make it into the ranking. He's a professional player for team Virtus.Pro (the same team Slivko is on) He is not a caster | ||

It would just be interesting to see how they do compared to individuals. Just a thought. | ||

His life must be 1/3 streaming, 1/3 tournaments, 1/3 sleep. I find that quite sad honestly but not speaking french in Marseille is preventing him from doing anything. | ||

But some players do cast games on their streams in their spare time, so to speak. Pomi did so recently, for instance. The problem is that, while I do record the events the streams are running under, it's not easily possible to determine whether a stream is being used to cast or to play. Player X streaming the event "Playhem Daily" is most likely playing the game. Player Y streaming the event "WCS Europe finals" is most likely casting. But you cannot say for certain without actually watching the stream. I'm planning on changing my approach for this, though, and I'll either create a white-list of regular events or a black-list of events where players were casting games, instead of blacklisting the players entirely when I find out they were casting some games. Hmm, did he cast games on his stream lately? He started the stream to ladder, and I figured that's what he's still using his stream for. If that's not the case, please let me know.

It's the lack of time for the most part that keeps me from doing interesting statistics like that. It's often more complicated than it sounds, though. Sometimes the restreams (which haf far less viewers, obviously) have the same event name as the original stream, or there are different streams for the same regular event (Playhem Daily with their various casters), or there are multiple streams for the same event. But this is definitely something I want to do. And then of course there are the big events like GSL, MLG or IPL, which do not publish their live viewing numbers at all. | ||

Yeah Apollo plays, I just wasn't sure if you meant that you don't put casters on the list, or you don't put people who only cast on the list. Difference =] | ||

He was one of the best WC3 players from Russia along with Happy, which is why he has so many viewers, because almost all of them are Russian, he does not cast his games, he just plays and streams | ||
