I know, who makes fake ice?

Also do they even drink whatever is in those glasses, the capacitor levels never drop.

My heart goes out to the commentators. It's too late this year, but next year I'll try to arrange having a bag of ice sent to you.

It's just water and yep they drink it, we just top it up during the matches. Important to keep everyone happy and hydrated!

If you can find ice that doesn't melt under studio lights, yes please send some my way next year :p

Fake ice in Iceland does seem a bit off. You should make the commentators who pick incorrectly run outside and chisel off some fresh. Blink

I can confirm Alice is a ninja glass filler! I was about to pee my pants towards the end because I kept drinking from this glass that never emptied!

I've heard good things about keeping ice in coolers and refilling as needed. It's still early days, but I think this could work. Will report back.

is the water at least coldish? and yes the ice will melt but it's main job is to keep the water cold, I'd much rather have to refill the ice every few mins than drink warm water :<

It's because real ice sinks when the clear liquid is alcoholic and not just water.

Who cares about the ice they drink glowing water. Will trade real ice for glowing water any time.

Just put a small cooling pad in the table underneath the glass. Will at least slow down the rate of melting by a substantial margin Cool.

There were a couple isolated instances of sinking 'ice cubes' this AT as well. I was looking for that.

There's nothing wrong with having an intoxicated commentator. We already have MB3 talking there.

But they DID use real ice at one point because they had the thing where the ice sank to the bottom and CCP Soundwave had to explain why that was happening!
