Thanks, we're investigating now.... (loose connection)

(edit)
Unfortunatly, the bad connection was on the path to the VCR we use as back up, so we'll have to borrow another team's tape later and redo.

Thanks for this catch!!! The practice matches yesterday are good though...Weird how things "happen" overnight.

p.s. www.sigmacat.com has a seeding scroller to watch :)

Woohoo thx SOAP. This is a lot more exiciting than some of the other regionals...a lot of fighting to the bitter end of the match. Nice driving by 68 and 292.

I agree! There have been a bunch of great matches today! I'm really impressed by how the quality of play has improved to the point of making this game really fun to watch! I can't wait till Houston, and then after that, Houston.

How's the audio quality? I know its loud, but because we're archiving and streaming off the same feed, and need the archive to be louder, .....

The announcers' voices are a little distorted on the live feed, especially when they get excited, but I can understand everything that's said.
