do you know what "protected" means on the quali list?
where's the Bromont 2009 thread?!
- Thread starter slyfink
- Start date
Means they didn't qualify in the top 80 but still get put through as they're ranked in the top 20.
no thanks buddy.
DH on freecaster starts in 7 minutes?
Seens as Fabien is last off any chance we can get a mic up to him so he can commentate on everyone else 
live....
was just gonna say the course looks mint, till that girl slipped on rock slab and got all muddy
lots of cameras it seems too.....this is gonna be a good one!
Course is in good shape but the mud is peanut butter right now. Rocks are a bit slick.
Hot and sunny today.
FC better than last time, but I still have to refresh every 10 minutes or so.
I keep getting kicked out about every 10 minutes as well. I keep seeing the advertisement for the Scott Gambler. I am beginning not to like Scott. 
Yeah me too. When the scott ad pops up, if I wait for it to go then I get audio only with a frozen vid, so just hit f5 as soon as that ****ty bike appears on my screen
Wow
sweet hate.
Without advertisers there will be no shows...without advertisers there is no money to work out the bugs.
Love the advertisers.

I just got up 20min ago and a WC is still on!!
I hope FC works the bugs out. Bummer.
yayyy...I'm getting the commentary, but none of it is about the racers!!
It's frozen for me...
Ads are great for the purpose of raising money for this terrific FREE live feed... but perhaps we could join together and tell Freecaster how many times we got to see the ads (every refresh) and how they could use the ad money for improving the live feed...?
I do. I know the advertisers are why the races happen. However, there's a time and place. See the little trek logo? It's small and tasteful, and doesn't make me hate trek. Stopping the show entirely during the number 4, 3, and 1st qualifiers runs doesn't make me like a company. Show it when the last qualifiers are running, not the top dogs.
pretty quick indeed, that made me laughThough actually, that indycar gag was pretty funny
I'd rather hear about the race too so when the picture goes out *again* I can at least still know what's going on.
Freecaster doesn't shoot this. It's done by a contract company to UCI. Freecaster repackages it for us. I am sure that the announcers only see what we see or some variation like that.pretty quick indeed, that made me laugh

This isn't too take away from Freecaster, just to say that like most TV announcers they are watching the same feeds we watch.
Laughable. There is a minimum expectation. Once you achieve that, you can talk about the necessity of advertizements.
Another thing all you duffers are overlooking is that the problem has as much to do with the Internet. I mean how much live feed watching do you do? If you did much, you'd realize that most live feeds are like this. Even though tech as come a long way, it's still not cable tv.
Well put.
Freecaster is doing a good job.
This week is much better than last.
FYI, Adblocking software takes care of the ads.
Ya mine is sooooo much better than last weekend.
Freecaster working.....have reload/refresh every 10 minutes though...
its my first time iam watching FC in canada...omg it sucks. It works so much better in germany! i got kicked out every 10min aswell. But right now i cant get anything
