Its good if you like staying up late. There's usually around 20 viewers when they stream. Are you guys streaming tonight?

Urgh, if it is played that late I am not staying up. Please youtube it. I'd like to get in on this though when I can keep up with some of you people.... And put up lots of ECartman matches, I'd like to see more of the person I'm confused with all the time.

Why is live streaming becoming so popular with smash? It seems like it started in brawl, went to melee, and now ssb64? What's so great about live streaming? I mean, it's nice to see other players play and such, but isn't that what video's can be used for? I can list 2 pretty big reasons why video's are superior to streaming.

1) Better quality. The streaming video I've seen on this is really laggy. I can barely watch it.
2) People who upload videos usually upload good matches. Not every match in smash is good and I really don't want to watch a stream full of matches with only a few being good ones.

So, could anyone fill me in what I'm missing?


Why do people watch live sporting events on tv rather than taping them and fast forwarding through commercials? Sure, it may be less convenient but there is something to be said for watching something as it's happening. It's more exciting.

I do agree that lag is a problem, but watching something unfold as it's happening will almost always be more exciting than a video of something that happened and people will totally sacrifice quality for it.

eh, that is human nature i guess.
