Hell…I’m Xposting in most other threads, why not here too
Hey guys, some, if not all of you have seen my postings on facebook, but with the new push of the streaming, as well as majority of videos being posted to Youtube, as well as FADC, I am wanting to change how the stream is running, especially in regards to commentary and what goes on where. This has been cross-posted in like 4 threads just so ya’ll know.
So first off, I know we all are at a lot of the same events here in the NW. So with that being said, I’m looking for people that are interested in commentating. I have thought about this a lot, and also consulted with a few people, and I believe that getting “teams” to commentate, so basically cover four matches then you can take the time to smoke, play your games or whatever, AND THEN when top 8 rolls around, run one of three scenarios.
A) Two man team commentating all of top 8, I would prefer it not change.
B) Two man team commentates till the top 4, then a three man team would take over.
C) Two man team commentates till top 4, a different group does till grand finals, then grand finals is a three man team.
The ONLY reason I even bring up the idea of a 3 man team is because there is A LOT of knowledge out there in the community, and it would be great so that everyone could talk and give their knowledge.
Now with all that being said, IF you are interested in commentary, I please ask that you try to keep it fairly PG-13 and directed to what is happening on screen. I can understand that in hype moments you may drop a word or two you didn’t mean to, but that is what happens, I would prefer with future streams and commentary, that the language is kept in control. On top of that, please don’t bring personal feelings into your commentary of “F this player” or anything like that and it is prefered if you don’t go “Player X should do this right now” loud enough so its basically like you are coaching the player.
I also want you to know that unless I’ve told you that you can be on commentary, or that its essentially your time to commentate, please don’t just walk over and pick up the headset, IF you want to do commentary then ASK ME first. If I am not there, then wait until I get back.
The Events that I know I’m covering, that will need commentary are
Gameclucks - 4/16
MHC Presents the 3rd Salty Runback - 4/23
Epic Khaos - 4/30
Epic Khaos - 5/21
Battle For Seattle - 5/28-29
And I’m sure there will be another gameclucks and TSR between those as well.
If you are interested in doing commentary for any of those events, let me know before hand via PM, Facebook message, text…whatever. Just the more I know in advance the easier things will be come event time. Things will be flawless and I will be able to know who is commentating when it comes time to upload.
