FPV restreams
SonicTV restream

There are a couple of other people who might be able to stream Sonic's cast of the games, depending on whether or not bgvrt wants to or not. If you are able to restream the event (especially if you're in Korea and can watch Afreeca with no buffering) then I'm sure people would be appreciate it.

Wow this is awesome, since none of the banned players are playing, do you think it could be put up on the calendar?

Wow, so good. That intro is pretty nice.

I think this will be a pretty good substitute for lack of OSL

If you have to ask, you can't afford it!

Not 100% sure but a "BJ" is what the hosts of an Afreeca stream are called, or something along those lines.

Wish there were legit VODs for this... I can't handle the bandwidth spent on watching someone's Afreeca buffer every 10 seconds lol. Send Sonic a message like 'get a youtube account' !

I'm pretty sure that kjw will upload the vods to http://www.youtube.com/user/AfreecaBW if he finds them.
