Supreme Commander Getting some Exposure

[Astrofoo]

I just wanted to show everyone something I just found on Youtube. A well known Youtube personality, TotalBiscuit, did a Let's Play for the Planetary Annihilation. In this video he talks quite a bit about Supreme Commander and TA. He seems to know some stuff. Anyway, I found it interesting and left a comment about FAF. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omg0JWIgJv4

Tbh I think FAF is probably eligible for a video, his contact is:

[email protected] (I think?)

If any effort must be made (this or anything else), it's probably better to wait for the new patch and Galactic War to be released.

I met TB while going to an SC2 tournament in feb last year. I mentioned it there, but he didn't really seem all that interested. I think he does what he wants to do rather than what people ask him to do most of the time. Might be worth another try, though.

This is the time to click on gyle's videos in the suggested videos tab. Getting a few videos associated the above video will get 1000's of extra views for Gyle and many new players for FAF.

That's interesting. He said Supreme Commander was one of his favorite RTS as well as TA. Maybe with PA coming out his interesting has been piqued a little? I kind of agree with Zep though. We should probably wait until GW is finished or the next balance patch is out. All the same it's nice to see someone of at least some renown saying some good things about SupCom. If you watch that video he even says he wishes PA had adjacency and stuff like that. I figure, he has 1.1 million subs. If half of those watch his PA video and then half of those watched one of the reccomended videos about SupCom from one of the casters that's a significant amount of exposure. I may be totally wrong about these figures though.

I've tried contacting him over twitter, not the best way to contact someone but he is fairly active on it, and never got any response.

If we manage to get a FAF presentation video from TB it could bring a lot of new players!

If we would offer him 50$ in order to recomend a good fa cast. Could that pay off for faf in the long run?
Just an idea. ^^

Another thing i was wondering about. Would it be legal and wanted from the comunity if there would be advertisement somewhere in the faf client window in order to generate some income for Zep and faf. How many different users of faf are there each day? 2000? How mutch income from advertisement could be generated in a month? I have no clue!
Maybe that could afford to pay pr measures like mentioned in my last post.
For my part i wouldnt mind having advertisement somewhere in the faf window if that would help the faf project.
I am curios to hear your guys opinions on that.
