Own3d tv lags alot these days especially for us Aus viewers, Justintv's gaming branch is now Twitch TV same thing different name, haven't really used livestream. Twitch tv would be the better choice
Own3d is laggy for aus? For europe and us it works pretty awesome (afaik) - and had streams with nearly 200k viewers. (ok to be fair they got some extra bandwith, since it was riot games streaming tournaments or stuff like that)
edit: After looking some twitch streams - looks good too.

I think first we are going to halt all development on NS2 for the next month and a half and just practice playing the game all day every day. Just FYI.
Thanks for the games guys, that was really fun! Yes we got our butts kicked, but it was a real learning experience. It gave us a fresh perspective on the game, which is invaluable.

The more I think about it, the more I think this wouldn't be that bad of an idea...
It's a pretty good initiative to have the devs see first-hand the kind of tactics I hope their opponents were using (abusing the hell out of everything and exploiting anything imba to the point where it's not enjoyable). It can be difficult to really convince especially designers of this sort of stuff unless they experience it first-hand.
I do suspect that anyone playing clan matches in NS2 is probably not that hardcore a clan (they'd be playing a more complete and balanced game at least until NS2 is closer to release). But you never know.
I wouldn't say there are 'hardcore' clans, because there aren't that many clans to begin with, plus I find still there aren't that many great players in the game. I can tell you already though that there is a skill gap, especially in the competitive scene. It'd be amazing to have more teams who were really into competitive play, which is why i'm so glad to see a few teams being created for the NS2HD tourny, brings a tear to my eye. =)
