I actually felt that watching multiple Bo5 matches in a row were a bit long. The finals should definitely be Bo5 but I might consider reducing the preceding matches down to Bo3. | ||

Totally right of course. What we need to do is put the finalists in a cage with an angry bear, a katana, and a computer running BW. The winner is the player that kills the bear (they each have their own cage and their own bear), and also wins the bo5. The eventual champion will be crowned the ninja Starcraft champion of the world, second in rank to only Bisu, the ninja champion of Aiur. FP view would be really cool, although it seems impractical to implement. What we really need is less PvP. This can be solved by trying to find the worst map for toss ever, and using only that :p | ||

"I want to see chinese players like Lx, Pj and F91." - I totally agree. While I can see why no Koreans are allowed, it would simply add to the credibility of the tournament. The winner could really claim to be the best SC player out of Korea atm. "replays>vod's" - actually, I beg to disagree. While replays are great, nothing beats a well-commentated vod. Except for a well-commentated live stream, of course... I totally dug the event. Especially the art and graphics team was brilliant. It would be even better if we had even more hype - maybe extra hype movies before the finals? Maybe polls that would be commented on ingame from round of 32 onwards? Definitely I'd love to hear/read more from the players, from the losers, too. It would have been nice to see Mondy interviewed directly after the upset on teamliquid, for example. I think everyone did a fantastic job. There's always room for amelioration, though (player webcam stream included in the live stream like in the Korean leagues, anyone?)  Greetings, fragbait | ||

In short this will allow the tsl videos to be higher quality mp4 videos rather then the normal youtube flash versions. | ||

2) Although switching to the FP view of the player in game might be problematic (with my fair understanding of how you guys streamed TSL), it might be cool to release FPVODs after the game. I for one would love to see Draco or JF's FPVODs from the finals. Of course, this would depend on the players' computers, and how they handled fraps or camtasia I guess. 3) It would be great, from an organiser's point of view, to make the TSL a sort of pseudo-qualification tournament for Courage or something? Maybe sponsor the winner to go to Korea (if he/she wants) and try to qualify for pro-status? Maybe eSTRO (Idra) or CJ (Testie?) would be interested in trying a top foreigner every season. Again, the understanding would be no guarantees, but a shot at making it pro? I guess that's long term though, so please don't flame me for thinking big. 4) For the finals, it would be awesome if TLers all over the world got together to in groups to watch it, and streams of these gatherings were fed in the run up to it, and between games. It would create atmosphere, and help build hype (not that you need much more hype, but still). I know people get together to watch the OSL/MSL/PL finals, so it would just be a matter of setting up a webcam at some of these places. Also will increase lulz on IRC, methinks? Again, this would create stream complications, but nothing R1CH and crew cant handle I think. In conclusion, let me just say that TSL1 was fantastic, and that TL can only go up from here. I hope at least some of these suggestions helped, and look forward to a cracker TSL2. | ||

Individual player tournaments are not proleague. (Which is where I assume he got the bo7 idea from.) | ||
