i think we should be able to watch our guild's guild battle and tomb battles, and let guildies see it too, cause not all of our guilds are in the top 100

yea give us other people a chance to observe ourselves too!

It would help with recruitment too; guildies could keep tabs on new players and give them advice or whatever. Not a bad idea, but I don't know how much it takes for Anet to host a match-even for one replay.

/signed, i am in a rank 100 guild myself. But I think it will improve the skill level in Guild Wars. Because the people who are not yet in the top 100 with their guild can now look back what they did wrong. Also the guild leader can see what went wrong, and can change the build

It would be nice to have but think about all the bandwidth and storage space they are using as it is to record and rebroadcast these matchs. Btw, when you are watching the match you are not the only instance of that replay. There could be hundreds of the same matchs being broadcast at the same time. Anet is using a lot resources to bring us observer mode.

There is a reason it was set to the top 100. It cost them a lot of money for resources to bring us observer mode. They set the cap at what is most cost effective. Since money is involved they will do like any other business and do what is finacially best. Might not be exactly what you want but that is what they have to do then that is fine. I do not pay a monthly fee and enjoy observer mode for free. I couldn't ask for more than that. If you want to see yourself in observer mode then get to the top 100.

One thing I would like to see in observer mode is what spirits are affect on the battle field. Spirits can the change the course of a battle in an instant. Its a shame we cannot tell if any are in affect.

On another note Chapter 2 will have a practise area so you will be able to work on your flaws. Hope that is a good enough compromise for you.
