Nail in the coffin. How small is MLG?

I’m sorry. I’m sick of seeing this MLG is a small community 2% garbage on this site.

First off until you people bring numbers and actual proven facts, then you can’t say anything.

Unfortunately for all the people who want to pull numbers out of thin air and spew the repugnant and false facts, I have the numbers are doing some homework.

YEAH! RESEARCH! EVER HEARD OF IT, WAYPOINT??!?!?!?

Let’s look at something as simple as Coach Bravo’s youtube account.

Currently, he sit’s at 22,970 subscribers.
Now I can hear people who are on the crusade against MLG screaming, “IT’S MORE THAN JUST MLG FANS SUBSCRIBED TO HIM! I’M SUBBED AND I LIKE HIM FOR HIS HALO 4 CONTENT!”

Point taken! That is legitimate.

Let’s go back a few years though. After simply looking up MLG’s steam numbers, I found a interesting thread on TheHaloCouncil. Korrupt, which is a very well known person in the competitive community, had said this about Halo 3 numbers in MLG.

"OT, I’m not very sure what the stream numbers were, but i remember sundance saying in a post on the MLG forums that during one of the last halo 3 events the whole weekend stream numbers were either 250K or 500K Views (Not sure which one but it was a lot), and I think every halo 3 event was sold out not very sure how many team passes sold that is 190? and the MLG playlist would usually pull in 6-10K players every night."

Soo 250k + 190 * 4 = 250,760

Or ( Depending on which number was correct)

500K + 190 * 4 = 500,760

This does not even take into account people spectating and coaches.

Wow. People. Not only did MLG’s playlist out do Reach’s most popular ones, but the event stream numbers BLEW AWAY REACH’S ENTIRE POPULATION AS A WHOLE!

Yes, we have stumbled. Yes, we are down. But if you’re going to tell me that we are the minority here, YOU ARE WRONG! I DID THE RESEARCH, GOT THE NUMBERS AND NUMBERS ARE FACTS! We are bigger than you think. We also have a silent majority.

Now quit making up garbage and actually do the homework.

I get the logic you’re going for, but this thread isn’t going anywhere and isn’t really going to accomplish anything. The arguing isn’t helping it’s cause either.
I’m going to have to lock this.
