    I watched the entire thing start to finish, both stream A and B. Some awesome games in there, i especially enjoyed the nova vs WasabiOne team that lasted > 40 minutes. Kudos to WasabiOne players for having hilarious names (you guys should have heard Hugh and Wasabi rattling of play details "and crossroads is in atrium with datacorea!").

    Would like to thank you guys for having both streams, and i found it nice having both a more upbeat commentary heavy stream (with Hugh) and a more chilled relaxed commentary style on the other stream - nice to have both styles.

    Also, i think everyone on the stream appreciated guspaz buying Hugh the pizza, he was losing it.

    GG

    Stream was an absolute gongshow. Hugh and Wasabi were generally a disgrace to professional casters worldwide. What more can I say: keep up the great work guys :D

    It wasn't the most professional production, but it was definitely enjoyable. I think it fits well for the current competitive scene. Pretenses of "doing things proper like" will just hold us back at this point. It's that lubricant that holds things together when communities and organizations get huge, but it's a waste of time when we're so intimate and local with eachother here.

    [edit] Hughes casting annoyed me as usual "These guys have just been so aggressive all game, how can you count them out?" literally 10 seconds before the team calls GG because the aliens have 3 hives up and they just lost their second CC and last jetpack.

    Watched a bit of the casting later on. Hugh and wasabi have improved a heap since the last time i watched you guys (ages ago), especially the camera work. Keep it up!

    What i was led to believe was going to be only one merc match turned into 5 hours of marathon ns2 but the draw against nogg was worth the time :). Even though a ghost cc should have been dropped. Anyway, Danger (W1) has nice teamwork and with more match practice and tempo i would watch out if i was you apex! =D

    You are right, I actually thought of that, could have dropped a CC on the way to the hive at repair and pressed "e" for like 1 second so it technically exists. Bit of an oversight on our part but it resulted in the first ever draw so I can't complain :)
