Sure it was an upset, since he's been inactive (and mostly playing 2v2) but it certainly wasnt too unlikely, especially not on those maps. | ||

But I can't watch this without putting it on mute. Don't get me wrong, the casters seem like cool dudes... but it's just not entertaining or enjoyable to hear what amounts to basically a voice chat channel passing itself off as a tournament cast. Especially a tournament that claims to be the "biggest foreigner event since the TSL2." The BM, even if it's in jest or if they feel its warranted, doesn't help either. It really seems like it's only funny to the guys in the tournament themselves. Great effort, entertaining games, but the lack of professionalism is really hurting this. The tournament could be so much bigger otherwise. | ||

This means there will be mistakes, it won't be perfect and we will be trying to have some fun to see what our viewers will like during this event. As for professionalism, that is something that can always be worked on. I'm sorry if you were offended by any of the jokes that were said on air today. I will agree that our casting was a bit of a mess because we ended up having 4 people hanging out and attempting to cast the event. This will change in the future, so that this situation will not happen again. This is a very big foreigner ran event. The "bad manners" was not really bad manners. It was actually us joking around, because the general response of people in the chat was that they loved it. When we saw they didn't like something, we changed our actions to try to please them. This is part of what every casting/broadcasting group does. They test the water to see what their viewers like and dislike. So please keep this in mind that this was the FIRST one and we will be using the information of today's cast to help improve future casts. We do hope to make this tournament very big for the broodwar community. So please stay tuned into future casts. We hope that you will be pleased with the future results. Thank you again for your feedback! <3 ^_^ | ||

Kinda represents my feelings on sayle's guests. Sometimes they have insightful things to say; that sayle hadn't touched on , and I didn't consider(I think it would be really entertaining if there was the opposite of the KasPra show, where there is an A level player that talks about their mindset in a series of games (this is not commenting on the entertainment of the KasPra show)). But unfortunately it seems like their strategic input is more of an occurrence rather than a constant. And it seems to go away completely when there are more than 2 guests at once. I voted "not fine" but I am no where near against it as the guy who shuts off the sound. I just find it as something that I would change. I hope this isn't referring to in game player BM, because I'm going to look like a dick for railing on the cast unprovoked, and I do like that BM. It is rare enough and varied enough to be a welcomed change of pace. | ||
