A theory... Someone may have partied too hard... Clearly there's more to why they're not using the video wall as a primary source, but this could be a factor...

Are you talking about the dark spot or the line (Which has been there). There is no reason why they could no still use the wall for graphics even with that area

Is the LDL translucent now? Just when it was cueing out a while ago, you could see through it.
No.
It would be cool if it were, though. Like the old XL LDL, but more advanced and a blue tint.
I answered my own question. The LDL is only translucent in the blue shine/halo at the bottom center of it.

It might have not been being used because they we're filming the Extreme October segment/show.

I've been told they like the look of the graphics on the screen so it may be permanent in the future. We shall see

Which graphics...like ALL of them or certain ones? Or are you talking about the LDL? :dunno:

I concur, I don't see any more perkiness or personalities with the new OCM's or the older ones. I guess it's all business to them now
