I find the new GOMTV design so fucking aggravating.
Before, when I was searching for a video, I would go to the league, select league, select schedule, and I could browse the game I was looking for. I just hit "Ctrl+F" to find, then type in, say, nestea. If it was another day, just select another tab on the schedule.
I could also just select league, click "Videos", and search for the match. You could also just select the general "videos" tab and search across all leagues.
This format is really, really frustrating to me. Maybe I'm missing something, but I just find it so damn hard to find old games now. The new schedule page is really annoying, I almost feel like it's a ploy to force you buy the ticket to every league - which, I have, but I want to know how the GSL comes out, not the WCG. Timezones are fucked up anyways that it does no use to me, I don't want to calculate -13 hours every time I look at a calendar.
Trying to find VODs is incredibly frustrating now. The format before was so simple and perfect, what the fuck. It's just impossible now to try to find a VOD if I'm unsure what league it's even in, and even if I do, if I don't remember the exact day it was played, I have to search everywhere!
But seriously. Fucking impossible to find a VOD if I don't remember what league it was.

I don't know if it's their new security features but I can't even log in to watch my VODs
The new design is also quite frustrating; I totally agree.

I think they have a cool idea sort of going on, I guess like more "this is what's new!" and the player stats, but the player stats kind of spoil things (hm, why did his rating go down today, the same day he has that big match? fuck) and it just makes no sense what they did with the schedule. I hit "July GSL" and both july and gstl games are listed on this stupid calendar, I just want JULY games.
And all this would be okay, except that they just completely removed the Videos section, where you could just search for what you wanted, and you could go to League then Videos and search only that league. Like why would they remove the videos section for a fucking TV station.
It makes it really confusing if you arent going to gomtv.net every day too. If I havent watched anything for 2 days, and I go on trying to watch some of the recent GSL games, it's pretty confusing, and it's kind of spoiled, and it's mixed in with other leagues when I specifically am trying to catch up on one specific league. Then the whole "previous week/next week" thing is obnoxious.

Yea it reminds me of Blizzard really. Going for changes like. "display mineral text" when they have not yet implimented basic necessities like watch replay together or lan.
The worst part is buy season pass ready to watch ! Cannot loggin with facebook.
The website itself is less appealing and harder to understand but idgaf about that, I will get used to it.

The website design fucking sucks!!! It was perfect before. Why change something that has no issues?

The thing that annoys me the most currently is that there's no longer a Videos section where you could see all the videos and sort by views, date etc.

Hi all
I thought the old design was more practical as well, particularly the old "all videos" page. Luckily, it still works and is updated with new videos:

Is anyone else still confused?
God i fucking hate the design of gomtv still. The 'videos' section, if 'search' it always say "Content unavailable" or whatever, so you literally have to go page by page and hit ctrl+f to try to find the player of a game you are looking for.
I feel like that they want you to 24/7 watch gom-tv, and check their schedule. It's like, the type of person who's actually looking at that schedule, is going to be watching tomtv 24/7 anyways, so why bother with the schedule right? I guess that's a little harsh, but what I mean to say, is that it's fucking goofy.
I liked how it was before, where there were brackets, I knew when the games I wanted to see were, and I could watch VODs based upon clicking on the brackets.
I really, really feel like I'm missing something here, becuase surely not everyone can be doing this moronic way of looking up VODs. Right? Even the front page, there's only 5 videos posted for 'recent videos' and if you want to watch something later, you have to dig incredibly hard through the schedule section which is extremely confusing, especially with the spiler/nonspoiler and trying to figure out wheres the game you want.
ugh. the old system was just absolutely perfect. couldn't they just at least keep a tournament bracket up and you select vods that way? Really, the only way I know what games are going on, is through the TL recommended games write-ups.

I completely share your feelings.
