as always TL establishes itself as THE place to hang out, first on the internetz now in real life.

do you think a lounge stream would be a possibility like in TaKeSen's flat on HSC3, or do you consider that to intrusive when the main focus is on giving the players a chance to chill out.

I used to be a writer for the now defunct scsuperbestfriends.com, can I still get a press pass?

This is a great idea btw, good work Ibsen/TL. I'm okay with a little player isolation in exchange for a better tournament environment for the players

I think this is a valid concern, was thinking the same thing the entire time i was reading it, seems like a great thing for players, but i thought part of the awesome MLG experience was for the players and fans to get to interact in between games. Maybe its just me though.


The current model is:
  • A player's section separate from the fans at the MLG event
  • The players try to get away to relax whenever they can (hotels and rooms away from fans)
  • Many small parties that are totally closed to all but a select few


In reality we are not removing players from the fans: they are already removed. We are trying to grant access to fans worldwide in a way that respects the needs of the players and casters.

see it that way if the player is fed up and wants 2 hours of quiet time he had to leave the venue get to the hotel depending on the hotel location it can be 45 minutes to more than an hour round trip, now he can go to the lounge in 5 minutes and is back in 5 minutes, giving you at least 30 minutes and more, time to see him on the MLG floor every-time they take a break.

plus they can take quick breaks in between which mean your favoured player is well rested so he will like play better, be in a better mood and less tired all of which will mean he is more likely to stroll around the venue ---> better chances for you to grab a handshake an autograph and maybe a quick snapshot.

TL;DR: rested and happy players have a higher chance at winning and interacting with the community.

This is going to be great; all the talent will be rounded up into one room where we can feed off there awesomeness :p

I imagine this will allow for a ton of great content to be produced out of Anaheim including interviews etc; i am expecting some world class HB trolling :p and unless someone brings a copy of Portal, i don't see anyone that stop him

Thanks sounds a lot better than how it first seemed, in the OP it makes it seem like whenever they are not playing games, they will immediately leave and go to the lounge but thanks for clearing things up.

They won't need any of that because they have Hot_Bid.
