For the first time ever, an extv broadcast of ESEA pulled in more views than CS. In fact, for the first time ever, an extv broadcast was competing with the numbers that a smaller SC2 LAN gets. This game is not dead, and I think that we as a community proved that we are still here and that we can produce the content that is needed to drive our game forward.

I want to thank everyone that was involved.

and all of the others who made today, and what is coming tomorrow possible. Without this dedicated crew, I and extv could never have brought this to you. If you see any of them around, give a word of thanks, some of them have been working all week on this, some of them put in a 12 hour day today. All of them deserve credit.

Lets push those numbers even higher tomorrow for the finals, lets send a loud and clear message to all the sponsors and advertisers out there that we are big enough to support.

i watched the mixup vs quantic game on badlands…. it was very entertaining.

i couldn’t find the source tv though – which i would have preferred… i like to control the camera myself as i believe that a lot of the 1337 skill moments are missed by the ‘observer’ dude.

i’m sure it’s possible to watch source tv and mumble cast, simultaneously running the muted stream in the background… right?

i suppose i could always get hold of the demo or something though.

Of course it’s possible, Alfa has been posting the SourceTVs for all matches on this thread. Also the Mumble should be available on the thread aswell if not on the first post.

that’s not easy enough for me, i need the sourcetv clearly labelled with radioactive isotopes and it wouldn’t hurt to have a naked lady next to it as well.

Congratulations on the fantastic success and thanks for your contribution towards it!

I was tuned in all day, it was an amazing day and an amazing feeling to see one community so united, and to see all the effort put on by this community which is amazing.

The games were amazing with very surprising moments and results. The 2 underdogs pulled it off, that was amazing, and although I was hoping to see br0 in the final and would love to see some Flow players in the final as well, all is not lost as we have amazing teams going through as well. Can’t wait for the big final in some moments, hope to see it pull even more viewers.

(Side note: please warn esea, it was disgusting to see their disrespect towards TF2 with blatant errors, missing stvs, configs, important parts of big matches lost, even with the big numbers we pulled that was really horrible to see from an organization that big. It was the only bad thing of the day) The cast was fenomenal tho, even with all the problems happening.

Now make sure to annoy some euros so they can realize what we’re missing out with all the “straight edge” ruleset mentality.
