Seriously MLG? Who runs your website?

I have had a small rant about this before.

Maybe I should just put this on the MLG forum.

Anyway, here it goes again.

Rant starting in 3...2...1.....

When I work all day, and want to have a night watching MLG games. It would be awesome, if there wasn't a twitter feed attached to the main stream. Slash a ton of spam around the website ruining the whole tournament for me.

There is news spammed all around the website with results to the point where I have to force my focus on the centre of the screen until I hit the maximise window button.

My point is.

I actually want to enjoy MLG, and not know who is going to win.

You know like any other sport in the world? Here is an example, if I record the football or the rugby on my Tivo or whatever I don't want my TV having a shitty twitter pop up half way through the game saying. Oh yeah Brisbane defeats Sydney....fucking thanks Tivo you piece of shit. Just imagine that scenario.

How can MLG consider itself a serious event if it just spoils the shit out of itself, and just assumes everyone around the world has time in the life to watch it live. I mean sure I could just skip work and not do assignments and have no job or a degree which is also a great idea also but really I'd just prefer a spoiler free experience. You now like that better tournament, known as GSL.

I'm watching a Losira vs SC game right now and half way through the match I'm reading garbage like, "losira advances 5 hours ago".

WOW thanks twitter. 100% not signing up to that fucking feed.

WANT EVERY GAME SPOILED BEFORE YOU SEE IT! FUCK YEAH SIGN UP TO TWITTER NOW!

OK cool, so I guess I wont bother watching that game seeing as it's like going to the theatre only to have the person who saw the earlier showing walk out and say. Yeah "darth vader is lukes father".

Anyway, like last time here comes the brigade of people saying.

Oh come on bro, spoiling games is heaps awesome. In fact after I record sports on tv. I look up the result on the internet, THEN I watch the replay because I actually hate feeling tense or getting excited, I'm just a soulless fucking corpse.


End Rant.

Going back to watch MLG now with my fingers crossed as tight as they can be hoping half way through a game when I minimise to you know...scratch my ass, that it doesn't spoil the whole tournament for me.

User was warned for this post
You have to be masters to train bronze league players...apparently.

Maximizing it solves your problem, and that takes litteraly 1 second.
Valor is a poor substitute for numbers.

It's funny, if I want to go watch a New York Mets game after it's been uploaded onto MLB.com's archives, I have to try to cover the scores with one hand as I click to start the game. And even then, an interactive box score shows up at the bottom of the screen to show me how many runs both teams scored each inning.

If the MLB doesn't have a spoiler-free online experience, I don't expect anyone to.

I thought it was perfectly normal to "spoil" other matches in almost every sport? I've only encountered this in the SC2 community.

You are in the minority who feel this way according to that thread and poll. Either you should go to great lengths to not spoiler yourself or just find the embed on a website so all you have to do is watch the restream without twitter and ads and stuff.

I don't really understand how knowing the results spoil the game. Personally it is easy for me to know the results of a past tournament and just watch the VODs and appreciate the high level games I get to watch. The casters hype the game up and the game itself is tense enough to feel on the tip of your seat.
