So is he going to give mostly advice towards zerg players, or does he also give some tips/pointers to other races? Thank you for these! Will definitely look over a few of them :D

Edit: ooh. he gives certain details as to why his opponents do certain things. Pretty cool.

Cool idea and initiative. But the ads are too aggressive and there are too many of them Also, no HD ? Or Youtube is encoding them ?
Hope it gets improved soon, keep it up !

He's still allowed criticism even if it's free. Welcome to the internet where almost everything is free, especially web-specific media. That doesn't mean we consumers can't complain. Our eyeballs and time is our payment and advertising is how the money comes in.

For example, people complained about Facebook's privacy policies. Were they warranted? After all, Facebook is free...

Excellent analysis of the games. I like how he focuses entirely on engagements, tactics, and economy whereas Day[9] focuses more on overall strategy and metagame concepts.

My only concern is the way he moves his camera. Mouse scrolling makes the viewing experience very jagged. My eyes can't follow what he's talking about. It's better to use the arrow keys to move around and then use the mouse as a highlighting tool for what he's talking about. This smooths out the camera for me and makes it much easier to watch.

Holy crap, this is awesome! I look forward to watching all of this. I love watching Idra, he has a lot of great insight.

Edit: Also I don't think the advertisements were that big of a deal, gotta make a living somehow, and it's not like we're watching this for constant action, just for learning's sake.

Guess I don't need to answer after this.
My words were not made to offend or w/e, I just give my opinion where... well, it is intended. If colbi didn't want any feedback from the community, it wouldn't be posted on TL.
