I was called this morning by my boss JP who said they had the new numbers in for how many unique hits the english GSI web site has recieved. we're at 1 million now and the number will probably keep rising even though the vods have already been ripped and put on youtube. this has gone above and beyond what i or gomtv had expected to recieve for our first english broadcast of a korean starcraft tournament. i would personally like to thank everyone who watched, i hope you enjoyed the event as much as i did. this clearly proves that SC is loved by more than just koreans.

Expect many more things like this in the future. Big things are comming. I'm not allowed to say anything more than that.

One million hits for the web page, or one million unique viewers of their broadcasts? I think you mean web page, but I'm just checking. Keep up the good work

Oh, by the way, let us know when you have some VOD's of WC3 commentary, it'll be a good opportunity for me to learn more about it. And in case you didn't get the point from the legions of adoring fans (and I think I saw a marriage proposal), great casting, we're loving it

You said during the final that you got 500 000 unique stream ips right? And I guess at least half of those tuned in during the final, so a few 100k watching the final? And they said beforfe the tournament that the stream was made to support 40k watchers right? So not strange if the stream was choppy for some.

And again: very good cast tasteless!

Thanks!

great to hear~ awesome tournament since it was in english I actually tuned in after work and watched it all the time, I missed a few matches but got to see the vods the next day. Tasteless you did a great job commentating it considering you were by yourself.

Looking forward to the things to come.

Amazing cast tasteless. That being said, I hope that the gomtv forums start being moderated so that the liveblogging//forum updating that goes on here can be moved to be seen by gomtv.

Looking forward to the future games (and hopefully more streams to make sure that everyone can watch

It was an awesome event and the website made it really easy to watch games and know what was going on. The commentaries were really great and the players/ match-ups were all extremely entertaining. All in all I'm really glad that the gsi was such a huge success and I hope the korean progaming broadcasts will take advantage of the huge fanbase outside korea.
