If we are talking just about SC2 then I don't understand how this poll is so close. MLG Columbus was clearly superior in fan turnout, tourney format, casting, drama, finals, etc etc. Stream lag happened at both events.

Dreamhack easily. All the games were broadcasted, the players were given better treatment, the players were better, and the games were simply better.

The only thing MLG had over Dreamhack was that it had Tastosis. Oh, and Americans - there's a lot of Americans on this site represented by all the recent surveys.

I thought Europeans were the most populous on this site O_o

Actually seems pretty even b/w EU and NA http://www.teamliquid.net/poll/index.php?poll_id=478

mlg cause they had 2 great streams always showing something, while dreamhack had to wait for the schedule to play next game that was bothersome especially on finals day when it was like a 40 min wait between each match

Both events were really good, however DH had so many streams(games all the time) and crisp and stable 720p stream at that. MLG HQ is terrible(i'm an HD whore) but on the other hand they had tastosis. Dreamhack S>MLG C

They should have the games played in that cool venue with booths from ro16.

According to the vote... everyone is blinded by MLG tour bullshit. Dreamhack is the biggest in the world. MLG is a joke of a tour around the US and they can't figure out small issues like audio and such.

Dreamhack i think, because of better streaming. Though i did not like the waiting between games.

1. Sucks to not have a volume control for your speakers in the 21st century or ad-block
2. oh you're a wheat hater
3. false
4. why you staring at their faces?
5. That only happened for the finals which was the last games and it gave spectators a choice of Tastosis or DJ9

Up until the finals it was equal, but I feel the finals of MLG Columbus give it the edge over Dreamhack.

I voted MLG, but DH was very very awesome as well I'm glad tournaments are really taking it to the next level to make it more enjoyable for viewers.

Very close. Both executed very well. Prefer DH's vod system too (all on Day's stream already what can you do.)

Still MLG's dual streams with tastosis and almost constant games has to get the edge.
