Also, I thought this was gonna be something about liver transplants over the internet thanks to the sidebar.

Thats a very low attach rate and i'd have to imagine its due to the problems they suffered from in week 1. It would be interesting to see how other leagues like IPL or CSN events size up. Also the graphs may be a bit misleadings because people tend to post more when there are problems and dont say much if things are going ok. Day 1/2 was a constant stream of complains which probably affects those 2 peaks.

Good data collection though. Thanks for the help Follow me: www.twitter.com/zlasher

yeah, the round robin play is sort of boring to me so I'll only tune in if I'm bored or a good matchup is on, but once the playoffs start I'll probably start paying much more attention yeah, the round robin play is sort of boring to me so I'll only tune in if I'm bored or a good matchup is on, but once the playoffs start I'll probably start paying much more attention "60% of the time, it works - every time" - Brian Fantana on Double Reactors All The Way // "Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people." - Eleanor Roosevelt

nekuodah Profile Joined August 2010 England 2376 Posts #10 Kinda expected this, alot of starting views because of the hype, then due to letdowns and failures in the first few weeks people dont tune back in, ontop of the fact its such a long process in group stage, im very confident they will get ALOT of views during the final week or two.

Hawkke Profile Joined January 2011 United States 40 Posts #12 I enjoy it more now then in Day 1 though, so how is "enjoyment" measured.

Mobius_1 Profile Blog Joined April 2011 United Kingdom 2726 Posts #14 Anyone feels a bit overwhelmed by sheer amount of Starcraft games? I watched some NASL when it was new, mixed in some IPL, but now I pretty much only watch the GSL and special events like MLG.



I mean, for a typical football (soccer) fan, it's one match a week for the favourite team and that's about it. Following SC2 means 4 BO3 a day of GSL, and almost endless NASL/IPL/Other tourneys/Youtube games/Streams/Dailies/TL.



I like the tourney, NASL, I like your ambition, but I just don't have the time. Starleague Forever. RIP KT Violet~

flowSthead Profile Blog Joined March 2011 1065 Posts #15 Well week 8 looks bad, but you have to keep in mind that MLG was the same weekend as three of the week 8 days. Plus, I imagine a lot of people watch the VODs and don't catch it live. I wonder how that factors in, since it is unlikely they will go to a live report thread having watched the VODs days later.

...as flowSthead has apparently already said.



It usually has been pulling in ~10k viewers on justin.tv on a daily basis.

Takkara Profile Blog Joined April 2010 United States 1753 Posts #17 I just can't follow NASL anymore. I know for the first couple weeks I moved my schedule around to watch as many nights as I could. Then I only turned in for the matches I cared about. Now I just make sure to check the spoilers before I go to bed.



Just way too much SC on to stay invested in it throughout the whole process. Sometimes less is more. I still like NASL and wish them the best. This is purely my personal opinion. Gee gee gee gee baby baby baby

Dingobloo Profile Blog Joined September 2010 Australia 1899 Posts #18 Week 9 Day 1 is the only one that really stands out for me, launches usually gather disproportional attention (see: game/movie launches) and then it stabilized at a level more representative of the number of viewers who want to watch a starcraft tournament with daily games. The more recent dip might be a clash with a different event though.

Lysenko Profile Blog Joined April 2010 United States 2128 Posts #19 Since HQ subscribers have access to NASL VODs, you'd really have to have those viewer numbers to know whether people have stopped watching or just shifted their attention to the VODs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysenkoism

TheAuditor Profile Joined February 2011 United States 133 Posts #20 NASL Consistently gets 10-18k viewers and then I've seen as high as 13k viewers during the European showtimes.



Does the data include the european airing, or are these not views, but thread views, which really isn't indicative of NASLs success, there is correlation but not necessarily.



I often watch NASL on NASL.tv or Justin.tv and I also watch the vods every once in awhile of matches that I missed.
