RE: Dota 2 comp:
I agree that it could have been organised a little better, Rokshocka did a great job given the circumstances but I'm not sure about playing and organizing at the same time. It would also be a great benefit to organize the brackets a little earlier, the late additions made things a little messy.
RE: Casting
I know that the internet issues were totally out of anyone's control and it's a real shame. Regarding the rest of the casting, having the casters sitting next to each other causes them to bleed into each other's casts which isn't great.
RE: the lan
This was the first time I attended respawn and I had a blast, casted some great games and played some pretty funny games after the tournament, shout out to the guys I was playing with, was heaps of fun

Lastly, the games I casted are now up at my (new) youtube channel:
