The ending to this kills me every time haha. Great editing

 

[Wild Card]

Ryu looked like bread since forever although clean and iconic but a beard put him on the map. There is a ton of small changes they could make to Sakura that would please many..including a beard

Beard Pack is the new Animal Pack

 

[CountBlack]

Hey Count, you're trash at Xrd, right? Wanna play?

if you use Sol then fine. Any other character and I'm lost.

 

[Kumubou]

Maybe for CEO proper, but he couldn't justify CEOtaku for that ad buy.

Either Valle with SCR or Lapchi with Canada Cup.


Personally, I'm going with the upset and the most hilarious answer with Team Pie and Defend the North.

I can't see it being anyone with any real experience running an event, as they would have a rough idea of what the stream is actually worth. You would need to be pulling Evo numbers to even dream of charging that much (and after adjusting for all the McRibs you would need to buy), assuming a CPM of $20 or so. Honestly, that CPM number is way too high for a ad sold directly due to fill rate issues (never mind that Twitch's own CPM is, IIRC, a fraction of that), but I'm using it as an illustration -- at least a direct-insert ad would get way better view rates than the ads Twitch (and it's 80% AdBlock rate) provides. Even something that could do 50k viewers peak (something like a CPT premier event, such as CEO or SCR) wouldn't be able to justify that kind of cost.

There's always the possibility that I missed something blindingly obvious in my analysis (as I spent about five minutes on Google looking for some rough numbers), but it just illustrates just how absurd that requested rate is.

Yes thank god

Offline WNF coming back? Looking forward to it.

Somebody trying to charge Broken Tier 5 figures to run an ad at a major. Guess which one.

Putting this kind of stuff out there without also naming names is kind of a scumbag move imo.

This is how rumors get started about people who don't deserve it.

Shit I wish if you were playing earlier. I could bring out this fraud waifu to play.

Oh, from the Gootecks thread I thought it was something that happened recently. Good to know that things have been mended.

Yeah, it's a 3s major that included 02um this year.

You're objectively wrong :3

But people tell me that 3S is the most awesome and amazing SF.

It doesn't have to be balanced (which it isn't) to be amazing (which it is).

 

[Lostconfused]

Nah that's the one.

 

[WarRock]

Yun and Yang are pretty boring in 3S, yeah.

 

[Coffeeling]

Oro is boring in large doses, though also depending on player a lot.

I like watching Ibuki, Chun, Ken, Ryu, Hugo, Urien a lot.

 

[Tizoc]

Yun and Yang are pretty boring in 3S, yeah.

I tend to enjoy Yang a little more, but long/big doses of Yang can be dull.

Koogy later said it wasn't SCR or Canada Cup. I have to think it is Capcom Cup now. And Sixfortyfive, you are right. He should mention who it was so everyone knows. But I assume he doesn't want to permanently damage any potential business relationship.

 

[K.Sabot]

Surprised Koogy was the one to bring up the annual "TOs are greedy" talk.

 

[USD]

TOPANGA LEAGUE is pretty tense right now. The only player confirmed top 3 in either group is Dashio. So many other players are so clustered together, it's impossible to tell what will happen.

If that's the case, why mention it at all? Won't this damage other TO's opinions in doing business with the company in the future?
