I think I wrote a while ago about how I had a continous feeling that things were moving more quickly for NiPTV than I had maybe even deserved. I havn't had much of a chance to really stop and think about how everything has been progressing, but after yesterday's cast I think now is a good time to just take a moment and express how much this all means to me.As many of you noticed, I went to cast in a studio for the first time with DDK, at the FaceIT studio in Milan, Italy, which was an amazing experience. And since then more things have lined up on the horizon. Raidcall EMS one is getting more and more popular and the stats we can show ESL are also making an impression on them, which is very cool. When we started Pugcast, our average viewcount was around 400-600(on a good day), and I think ESL brought us on mainly to be nice to some enthusiastic kids who wanted to stream some. And now we actually share a significant part in the weekly cup and are helping to build something for the CS:GO community, and that feels amazing.But I also want NiPTV to stay grounded, to keep us casting those daily matches so that CS:GO isn't just tied to a few bigger events like LAN finals and such, but is more of a daily occurrence, which isn't always easy to find the time for. But its always worth it, yesterday saw some really fun games, and particularly the game between k1ck and Virtus.Pro got people excited. Some 4000 people tuned in to watch towards the end, and it turned out to be a great evening for everyone.The positive feedback we've been receiving hasn´t just been in words, yesterday we managed to finally add a donation button to the stream, which is something multiple people have been requesting for a while. During the cast a total of 6 people donated. I was looking at the donation page afterwards and was actually very humbled by the extend to which people believe in NiPTV and what we are trying to create. I will be investing in the following upgrades for the stream, which in the short term will be a huge improvement, but there are also other things coming up that will improve the quality of the stream:[SOUND MIXER] http://bit.ly/15ETbFw [MICROPHONE] http://bit.ly/12uXyGw [CAPTURECARD] http://www.amazon.co.uk/Avermedia-Live-Gamer-Hd-C985/dp/B007SRYAPO I feel like we are still just getting started with NiPTV, there is much more we can do to make things better, more scheduled and more regular. We have got to where we are because of your support and not a day goes by without me thinking about this fact, and it makes me want to do more to improve on things. Not sure how to finish this off exactly, except to say that I will still try and be here as often as possible to try and repay your trust in me.
