VODs are being uploaded now. They'll be processed and on YouTube by tomorrow morning.
1 in Sunday Night Fights VIII: White On Rice -
A few of them should be viewable now. I'm adding all of them to this playlist (at the bottom) as they're uploaded and processed.
2 in Sunday Night Fights VoDs? -
Justin.tv's taking longer than usual to process them. I was going to leave it until tomorrow morning but I'll try to get as many up as possible right now so you'll be able to watch.
However, this means that they might not be ordered properly and definitely won't be annotated until tomorrow or later.
4 in Sunday Night Fights VoDs? -
It's a little hard to judge Valve on actual eSports production, but they put an awful lot of work into most of their pre/post production cinematics.
This is an enormous step for them in what seems to be unfamiliar territory, and I think you might be right. Such an enormous prize pool won't matter if the only things people remember are terrible stream quality, boring casters and production issues.
1 in Dota 2 -
I've seen both of those and heartily recommend them to anyone looking to expand their knowledge of fighting games. King of Chinatown is about Justin Wong, and there's certainly parallels between his rise in Empire and move to EG and the current Korean player moves going on in SC2.
Focus was incredibly awesome because I know Gootecks (Mike Ross' partner for CrossCounter.tv) which made it even more enjoyable.
2 in Micro, not Macro: An Overview of Competitive Fight... -
Working with other weekly tournaments is a fantastic idea. I'll see what we can do.

Right now I'm planning on having the majority of the screen be the caster's view, but have small PiP areas on the bottom to show each player's view.
2 in Introducing Sunday Night Fights! -
Yeah, as one of the best NA players and an overall fantastic guy, Sheth should have no trouble finding a new team. I wouldn't be surprised if Liquid went after him.
2 in FXO and Sheth part ways -
I mentioned this in the WP IRC last night but I'd be very concerned for her safety at big events like MLG. We've already had to get security for people like Day[9] and Tastosis, and as one of exceptionally few pro girl players, she could be mobbed any time she's in a public area.
1 in First female introduced by SlayerS -
The thing that worried me most was that it was SlayerS Jessica that picked her, not Boxer. Jessica's a fantastic artist and great for SlayerS but it's Boxer who's known for picking great talent and potential before it really comes to fruition.
That being said, I hope Eve is the secret SlayerS ace and is preparing to reverse all kill a team.

Had the cards kept away from years ago. Bought Blue from a friend.
1 in NASL Finals- My first eSports event -
There's a few things that I think make or break you when you want lots of things signed.
If you want to actually be remembered, you absolutely cannot bring something that is boring. Do not expect Tasteless or Incontrol to distinguish you to themselves if all you're bringing to get signed is your SC2 box.
If you look through that imgur album that I uploaded, you'll see a lot of unique items that you probably haven't seen signed before. I spent a fair amount of time thinking how I could get great items for each of the players to sign. I wasn't able to find something for everyone, but things like the God of War discs and the StarCraft: Brood War guide and Pokemon Blue get you noticed by the players and casters. I brought 4 of the original Squirtle Pokemon cards and gave one to him. I gave Tasteless a shuriken (for killing nerds on the ladder). What I'm trying to get at is, get something unique. Don't just be another SC2 disc, try to be excel.
I was able to gather up all the stuff I got signed in a few hours before I left, and I'm already planning to do a lot more for MLG Anaheim.
3 in NASL Finals- My first eSports event -
I do the EGMC VOD work for OneMoreGame.tv and I'm confirming that there will be VODs up within a few hours of the tournament ending.
3 in WellPlayed.org Partners with Evil Geniuses as Offi... -
I don't mean to hype anything, but we're going to be doing similar things (but improved) for just about every event we go to.
5 in Just when I though I was over the Buzz and Excitem... -
Not really. Idra's shown that he can throw away games that he'd essentially won if he believed that he was behind, most notably against Huk in MLG Dallas 2011. He's never shown that he ever tried to purposely lose any of his games, especially in tournaments with such prestige as MLG.
It's much more believable to assume that it was Idra's mindset that lost him the game than his desire for vengeance.
1 in *SPOILER* MLG Columbus - IdrA vs MMA
There are currently no plans to continue Sunday Night Fights. We will certainly continue to do other SC2 events in the future, but right now we are focusing more on other games.
