Broadcasting live the final match!

[Arcas Nebun]

  I can do it! I know there are pros and cons! Please shoot your oppinion!

With xfire stream or something? Main drawback I can see is ghosting since the delay on streams like that isn't really very big.

...Yes, it would be great...!

Although i normally despise the word "awesome", this would be AWESOME indeed 

But the problem is, how?

I have my means, I'll notify people one day before the last games of this tournament!

I will try to test this the next days and see how it works. If people agree, I will broadcast live, while using locked camera on team member spec mode (I will be forced to do that). You can't see much, but you will see something .

Could this in any way affect the server itself?

If not, then indeed an awesome idea. You could even organize that spectators gather on a neutral ts, so its more fun for them!

[Demonhun]

I agree this should be done. It will not affect the server, it only affects the PC that is broadcasting. You can use xfire streaming or livestreaming or something. Tests should still be done just in case though so we wont get to that day and it will be impossible to livestream ;p

I already have an account there and I tested it with my roommate, but I'm not really sure how you guys will receive it! (Also I might have to reduce the graphics to basic... but I will see how this works).

It would be great!!

Awesome idea Crazy ^^

Is there a way to delay the stream for 30 or so seconds?
That way it would still be close to live, while the spectators couldn't inform either of the playing teams of the opponents movement, thereby limiting the chances of the stream being abused.
If that was possible, the referee could use freelook and the viewers would actually see something.

If the stream can't be delayed, I don't see why a stream from the locked camera-perspective would be a problem.
If the referee follows players and streams that, this would enable ghosting however, so unless the Stream is delayed for more then at least 15 seconds, only the locked camera perspective should be used in my opinion.

Streams are by the nature of delay from the streamer to the stream receivers already suffering with a delay of anything from 10-20 seconds. I know this from experience from having streamed several WoW raids.

If the delay is 10 seconds, there still could be a lot to see that spectators/viwers could report on the respective TeamSpeak-servers. 20 seconds would be better, but the more delay, the better I think (in this case at least).
