Don't understand why no one posts this.

Korea 5:1 Germany

There was no stream.

Will there be stream of Japan vs Poland?

I hope the stream will be back up for the next 2 matches. Too good to be missed...

Wtf is going on? I don't understand why no stream, the only reason I could think of is that the people who are in charge are like unsatisfied of their salary or the low popularity of the stream? Is this a goddamn job?You know, I would be glad if I am one of the commentators...

don't jump to conclusions without knowing anything. there are most likely reasons.
Although, he is right to ask, why no streams?
Wishy
It's amazing how we got every random match with an obvious outcome streamed and then we don't get anyone stream important matches. Even those matches where the winner was irrelevant got streamed... (2-0 vs 0-2)

#owc is still closed.

This tourny organisation is a goddamn mess, so much time to prepare and then still "Oops forgot to prepare". I was really looking forward to seeing at least JP vs PL. :(

Well at least we got to watch really epic and important matches like Macau vs. Indonesia.

JP vs PL: Apricot's stream.

Thanks to Apricot for streaming since we couldn't


(Please refrain adressing any type of flames due to any lack of stream to me: I'm just a commentator and I sure as hell won't take responsability for this.)

Well, I don't mind not having a stream.
I'm watching White Wolf playing.

About the Stream:

This morning all streamers were unavailable. My alarm failed again and the backup streamer (ztrot, who I asked to back me up if this happened since he would be awake) suddenly had to go somewhere. Same reasoning is for the match an hour ago. Once I came on, I was informed that the tourny client was broke due to the new IRC system, so we couldn't really stream if somebody was available anyway (not going to put the blame on that though, ofc).

The stream will start once the tourny client is fixed.

I don't know what's worse, if all streamers were AFK or the fact that the client is broken. :p

Well you know it kinda sucks that for most of the matches, we either have to stay up all night or get up very early without much sleep due to our timezone. It's something we have to deal with though and for the most part I have been able to do it just fine. This is the second time throughout this whole tournament that my alarm has failed = =.

Another note is that we do have a 3rd backup streamer (kingking) but that's when we found out the client was broke.

It'd basically be the same thing - it doesn't work at all.

Personally, I'm more upset about not having a channel to moo in.
Wishy
I understand Makar, what I dont understand is why you guys burnt your heads off streaming completely irrelevant matches that pretty much no one cared (really most group stage matches were idiotic as of 2-0 vs 0-2 or just obvious outcomes) and then you can't make it for the important matches. That's the only thing that bothers me to be honest.

I'm surprised that peppy didn't realize the client was broken before-hand, since he is usually aware of all that stuff.

Streaming the previous matches or not doesn't change the unexpected outcome of today.

Also, we didn't expect the client to not work or even need testing. It worked perfectly fine before, but something was changed that affected it (and we didnt think it would affect it)

At the moment, the stream is down and will be for a while since the bug is very hard to fix.

Nice organisation guys.

Thank you for stream, Apricot, was fun to listen to you all chat with each other too. Congrats for winning the game~

I like how our team was taking it too easy.
WW and fart had one map each they didn't play.
rEdo didn't even download the mappool
And that's just what I've seen on chat and stream, there's probably more...
peppy
The client was actually working correctly in my tests, and not the reason these streams didn't happen. Fixing it took 12 minutes, and would have happened off-air if we had people in place for the first match of the night. Kinda annoying to me since I plan my sleep/work pattern around being here for every match.
Makar
Client is working again but its kinda too late to start streaming now orz

@peppy: well to be fair the backup streamers weren't really notified about the matches either until a few hours before the match

The schedule has been out for weeks. Not being notified is not a valid excuse, sorry.

The really issue is that there were/are not enough streamers in place to account for human failure (aka the only two streamers not turning up). This needs to be accounted for at a higher level to ensure such scenarios dont' arise. It's equal to having multiple copies of important data stored in different locations in case of disaster.

I can't really apologise for the failure that was this weekend, but I can join you all in disappointment of not being able to see these possibly amazing matches.

So, why couldn't Kurai be added to the streamers? Loctav had said before he would ask since we really need a streamer in a timezone that doesn't make the chance of human failure so high >.>

I have no idea why we have only two streamers who are also in the same inconvenient timezone. Like I said, I can make most of the matches, but today was unexpected and something else had happened to the other streamer.

First tiebreaker of the knockout phases, very entertaining from both sides and very evenly contested.

Congrats to the Netherlands and good luck in the next round. Bad luck to our lads, but I have to say we've come further than we thought we would. I'm proud of what our team has a achieved.

That was one awesome match guys. Good job everyone, was really enjoyable to watch. :D

And thanks Makar for staying up late (6am) just so he can provide us with a good stream.

Who cares about FC , i mean sure they are important but you can just miss at the end of a song and still carry pretty much your team.

then you should read all the rest casue it explains everything
Salvage
it doesn't actually explain anything, fc is by far most important than almost fc, take for example Ende on which Japan made 3 fcs and one almost fc, if on an hypothetical case poland would've made 4 fcs, that "4th fc" would've been worth gold, it's not easy to explain but you're just talking bullshit, what is said about Niko and Cookiezi was just prooved right this round, and you're trying to proove otherwise with not only not having any argument, but even having ones that proove you wrong right on your face.

FC is the only important thing. White Wolf did awesome of course, but I liked how Niko got not only all FC -1 which is better than FC -2, but yeah they are two monsters, I just prefer Niko.

In case you didn't know, if you miss when there are still 100 circles left you lost several millions score!
