    Dan had to cancel this evening. Haven't been told why. We'll try for this weekend instead. 

    I'm told Dan will be streaming as well as me.

    It'll be even lies (though doesn't make much difference at Pinehurst), and 60 sec clock.

    I'll stream anyway and crash through some RGs instead this evening. Not as potentially interesting though, so apologies...

    Mr queez , we did have one player not playing because his internet cafe (rolling eyes) did have the cheat engine on, so some are sceptical.

    I remember that and understand why some people are skeptical.  .

    Sorry to say that we had a cancellation for tonight.  We are going to try and set something up for this weekend.

    So no game at all ?

    Let two others play ?

    They could have offered someone else a chance to play Mags.  I'm free :-)   Should be fun to watch when they do play.

    Do this right WGT or don't bother doing it at all!

    Well...since you put it that way, they aren't bothering to do it at all.

    All your fault!!!!

     

     

    I remember a year or so back, while during a CC v CC match-up, a "top player" from the other CC was told that the opponent was going to record their round, and would he do the same, as it would be great to see two TOP players from their perspectives. The day the message about "recording" was sent, the opponent got sick and had to be replaced. His replacement was smashed in 5 holes, game over.

    The very next day, the sickness was suddenly gone and the original opponent was back in business KILLING the VT and everything else.

     

    I remember when WGT announced that the top VT players would "have to twitch" a round. One of the players who had been at or near the top ALL YEAR LONG suddenly "retired", not to be heard from again....well, until the twitch thing dies off, and the 2015 VUSO popped up (and there was no mention of having to twitch any of your rounds). The player decides to come out of retirement and, wouldn't you know it, after 4-5 months away, hasn't missed a beat, and was at the top in a day.

     

    Oops..forgot to mention that both of those little tidbits were by the same person.

    Like deja vu all over again.

     

    "I told you so" :-)

     

     

    Play MrQueez mags...just set it up with him, and post the video afterwards. I think he has a good idea (about top non-tourney top players vs top tourney players). And I'm pretty sure he'll show up ;-)

    Damn Dubya.  You went there!  Haha.  

    IIRC, Dan is a computer graphics guy (wgt did a story on him a year or so ago) so I'd assume (perhaps incorrectly?) that a computer graphics guy would be able to figure out how to use Twitch.  I'm stoked to see him play live.

    Every player that is allowed to participate in these Wgt twitch matches should be required to play live or else be replaced with another player.

    You know me D...I call it like I see it :-)

    And I called this a week ago, before this thread even started. 

    Right or wrong, I speak my mind.

    You remember correctly.

    LOL...same thing my mama always said to me...and still does, lol.

    YEP!!!! And the top 10 players of every month's VT should be required to twitch or not get paid at all. 

    If you can't twitch, just go play a RG and leave the VT to those who can. 

    BTW, I just used Ocam, and recorded a CTTH round, while Twitching (streaming) AND downloading windows updates at the same time, with my 4.8 mbps download and .42 upload internet speed. AND, AND......I used pepperflash instead of the good flash player (adobe). 

    I'm off to record myself twitching, while playing youtube videos, and eating a sammich on FF to see how well Adobe flash does. 

    The pepperflash is jerky, even when not recording.
