As one of those that watched (and enjoyed) the whole match, I'd offer the following suggestions:
1. The broadcast environment could have been planned better. a. Mic the players and the commentators b. find a better balance between color and play-by-play c. Putting an XG transcript up as a side bar is a must, imo
2. Do a rehearsal a. the camera coverage of the board could have been improved. b. The scoreboard needed to include the game number (and maybe the starting roll) c. The dice didn't show up as well as they could have. (Bigger dice?) d. The commentators would have been well served to do a practice match that they could go back and listen to before the event. This would be good from a technical stand point in terms of how they are miced and it would improve their performance. e. A rehearsal would allow you to see how long the games take on average so that you can create an schedule and then know where you are with your time.
3. I think you have to integrate the XG transcript into the broadcast. A lot of the commentary was overly speculative when it didn't have to be. It's tough for even great players to speculate on a sporting event without having the stats to back up the opinion.
4. Set up a donation site so that people can demonstrate how much they like watching money play matches like this one. It will also serve as a good gauge for how interested people really are in seeing stuff like this.
Overall, I thought it was worth watching. I had fun. I hope there are more of these.
