The biggest tournaments like pinburgh will have more like 600 watching live I believe. NYCPC had 5,000 views within a week of the event (and 7,500 now, and it’s just a long 10 hour block that was never edited/improved) so clearly people are interested and tuning in.

I remain far less concerned about how few people watch Pinball streams compared to overwatch than I am with thinking about how we can improve broadcasts and make them more fun to watch.

As far as I can tell there are more people doing it than ever and the production quality seems to be improving, so the idea that nobody likes/gives a Shit about these broadcasts is news to me. Seems like it’s increasing in popularity and frequency - almost all medium-sized and up tournaments I’ve been to lately have had a streaming team on hand.

Streaming is on the upswing. Lead, watch, or get out of the way of this eSports freight train baby!

You and all the other Malcontent Mollys will eat your words one day when live pinball is packing arenas! Besides, you probably just aren't tuning into the right shows. You don't think you'd be entertained by a streamed Struggle Buggies tourny?

Thanks Link. Maybe one day Odin will tune in and I can dazzle him when I go from Beef to Booth.

I'd really rather be playing in the final 4 but booth is a fun fallback when it doesn't happen.

How anybody who posts here regularly can ever pull the "get a life!" card has always been beyond me.

Either you are a nerd who posts here or you aren't, there's no middle ground. You aren't somehow cooler cause you just post here 5 times a day instead of 10!

Ok I think I covered everything.
