Future Event organization and stream situations

People are afraid to say anything for whatever reason not like you will be banned from events but:

No offense but I am sure we all would prefer if all future major tournaments are streamed by someone who can generate a higher view rate usually in the several thousands area not several hundreds.

Also uploads match videos at a faster rate instead of being lost in the archive.

Streamers get paid 1k to 2k to stream an event per event or maybe event per day depending on the event.

Since we all are paying for a service when we enter a tournament well it would be great if we got the best service for our money.

Commentators should be unbiased. No more biased people on the mic rooting for their friends while they are commentating. You demean our competition when you do this and it makes us all look childish and immature. More professional please. If you can't adhere to this then well don't get on the mic. We also don't need people on the mic talking about what is going on during the after hours of the event. Some people like to keep what they do before and after a tournament private.

Organization as far as brackets. If we are going to have someone run our tournament and draw out brackets then it has to be someone unbiased and knows the community. Volunteers are great but when you are just volunteering and don't know the ins and outs of what you are volunteering for you hurt all of us.

Please no more commentator station close to the players station. Its annoying enough that players have coaches because they can't think for themselves but when players can hear commentators it gets even sillier.

No more pools with nobody who is even notable in them. I'm tired of seeing free pools. No one should have a easy road and no one should have a ridiculously hard road. This is 2014.

most of these suggestions are idealistic aspirations that ignore the present logistical reality, most notably, commentator behavior and bracket bias. I for one am for completely randomized brackets that only take region into consideration.
The only people who say this are people who have no chance of being seeded anyway do they want this to increase their chances disregarding accolades or previous earned successes

why should brackets be changed to give someone an easier time? is a simple way to put it

wut. I'd rather be streamed by someone who wants to stream our event and have viewers who want to watch rather than on sp00ky where everyone hates NRS. @Shock @KombatNetwork

really? then how about this - the people against this are those who aren't confident in their own ability and are afraid of their competition; afraid that they may in fact play a top player round 1. and really, you've accomplished what in this game that deserves you being seeded over tons of other players? getting top 8 at what was once a regional until you demanded otherwise?

honestly, what is harder to accomplish as a player? using a weighted seeding system that caters to previous performers or a random system that makes skill the only determining factor if you make it out?

About streamers, 1 streamer cannot stream the pools of every game, explain how getting someone who can bring in viewers is going to accomplish this, how many streamers do? 2-3? what if theres 12 games

Imagine if one pool in FR was the people who made top 8. How does that benefit anyone except letting random mid level players (like myself) fraud their way into top 8s? You need to spread out top players so fraud Aquamen like me and MIT dont sneak in.

thats what seeds are for, the problem is, NON OF YOU FUCKING PREREG, HENCE LAST MIN SHIT, now that takes care of 8-16 players, what if 20 people show up who have made top 8 or 16. Thats misbalance already.

in these extreme rare circumstances, you're right. but again, it would be extremely atypical for such a situation to occur. stacked pools occur no matter how brackets get made. also, who's in charge of the seeding? how do we prevent bias?

SRK make an injustice world ranking list, their system is sexy, base seeds off that, just like in tennis the seeds are determined on your world ranking, if your 16th in the world, only one to show, your the numba 1 seed, in a perfect world right.

Ya, I was just explaining why seeds exist and aren't going anywhere. Pretty much every tournament has 2 seeds per pool, and if a shit load of top placers come, then there is just going to be 3+ per pool. In the event 20 top placers come with 16 pools then 4 of those pools have 3 top placers instead of 2 and thats just the luck of the draw.
