Your rant was far more polite than I would have delivered, were I in your place. But, then again, there is no sense in you burning possible future bridges I suppose.
Whoever is running WCG does indeed sound like a moron. But, being all too familiar with corporate America, this does not surprise me.
Anyway, thanks for all of your hard work. I do hope you one day get an offer to commentate for a living. You are already the most professional SC commentator out there.
Hey Diggity - perhaps you can provide us with some details of those responsible for stopping your WCG coverage? I'm sure that angry e-mails from your 10,000 or so fans could help them see the error or their ways...
Thanks as always for all your time and effort. Regardless of what WCG bureaucrats may think, you are a HUGE part of the starcraft community!
Oh, One more thing. Maybe you could start up a "Bring back 2v2" pention spanning youtube, Sc2gg, and other sites. You could include a link in your videos. I personally really enjoyed them, and thought they brought another dimension to the leagues. I am happy that I got a response by the legendary Diggity BTW keep up the good work ^^
While I do agree with your view on the politics I personally have no interest in a live-cast if it is low-quality. HD or nothing. Live is really nice but HD is a must.
hmm I don't know then because i was fine but yeh... what are you using speakers, headset, earphones? because maybe one of them has the volume turned down on itself, or it has a max volume... idk thats all I can think of.
wait now that I think about it depending on what your running go to your sound icon in your tray right click it and click mixer (Vista) and then see if youtube is up in there if it is thats all I can think of. hope it helps
I couldn't agree more about wcg and live casting, all your points are valid and I hope they come to their senses and supply you with the replays asap.
don't do a 24 hour cast please. it's a fun concept and would be interesting and exciting during the event, but probably 99% of the viewers would come after it's over and the lower quality sleep-deprived/sore throat videos won't be very good in the long run.
we like hearing you rant about the cybergaming world; many of us watch these vids but don't know much or anything about the politics behind their availability.
diggity i just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing all this work.
i think i speak for everyone when i say that we, as a starcraft community, truly appreciate everything you do and all the time you spend bringing us these games.
I say go for it diggity, your commentating videos are really great and I doubt they have many SC commentator partnerships already. The only thing you need is more exposure and that's how you'd get it.
i understand. i just feel like it wouldn't hurt to get something back in exchange for all the hard hours you've put into this. plus, you were the first commentator that i ever watched, and i much prefer you over many of the others. i say go for it
i very much appreciate the video diggity, and rant all you want. one thing i dont get, why do you believe that zerg will be the dominant force? it is based on the quality of players available and there are far more toss top tier than zerg. either way i love watching your videos, hell, even your net hack ones.
Thanks for the info about the WCG. What a joke.

if you want money from commentating, apply for partnership on youtube.

I do this for love, not money. If someone hired me full time that would be great but otherwise I am not all that concerned.
Aside from that there are so many commentators I doubt that they would see me as unique partnership material.

Right now this map looks like it will be zerg biased over all.
I feel like zerg have the upper hand in the PvZ meta game and they are performing decently well against T over all.
This is probably why 3 out of 4 players were zerg during the last championship run. Unless Protoss/Terran pick it up I don't see this changing soon.
