ATTN: Casters and Tourney Directors -

Postby BRNKoINSANITY » 14 Oct 2014, 00:44

I am filling out the roster for the upcoming tournament with Project Insanity. The tentative time for the tournament is November 8th in the American early afternoon/ Euro evening. If you are willing to live cast a series of games from the tournament please post to this topic with the following information.

---An attachment/dropbox/filedrop of a logo in 1080p. This can be a screencap of your title intro, but it would be nice if everyone had their own logo. I will be putting these with links in the promo video (everyone gets their channel advertised!)

---Create a playlist for the tournament (name as yet to be decided... recommendations?) on your channel and give me the exact URL to that playlist

---How many games you are willing to cast. There ought to be plenty to go around with multiple games taking place at once! Even if all the casters get in on this I doubt we will get all of them. I am hoping to have all the games take place in a 4-5 hour time window so if you can cast back to back the whole period you will be a HUGE asset!

Ok, as to the tournament directors, anyone with experience in this area would be a tremendous help to me. I have never hosted a tournament, so if someone would be willing to set up the brackets and format that would be fantastic! Depending on how many people we bring in, we will probably need several tourney directors. I would think at least 3 initially so that we have people on standby to answer questions and direct people.

This post is for volunteer information! If you want to help out with the rest of Project Insanity or offer opinions on things, refer to the PI thread at http://www.faforever.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8591

That is fine, I am sure you will get some viewers! You will also be included in the promo video so at least you will get some exposure. I think it would be great to have a few games in different languages. Just post the information asked for in the OP and I will get your info into the video.

I don't have worked on a logo yet... Any example of what you expect maybe so i can come with a decent one quickly ? You just want a picture in 1080P format that would be shown at the beginning of a video to promote all youtube channels ?

If all games take place the same day then i can probably dedicate 2-4 hours for casting in a reasonable timeframe after the tourney, and since it is 1v1 it would probably be between 4 and 8 games ? Not quite sure but i have free time ;) Since there is not that much french content i will probably focus on the best/funniest games/highest rated games instead of focusing on the leftovers.

TA4Life and Gyle needs to wake up i can't be the only one :!: And what about the other ones like Vekisis, Luxun, ZLO, Sheppard... ?

Hi Brnk, I found this thread through your Aeolus spam and I'm interested in helping to cast that tournament. By the way, this is my first post on this forum ever ;). My FAF Name is Das_Sebi and my global rank is 900. I have very much theoretical knowledge about supcom, but suck at executing it, so that's why I'm way below Average Joe. I'm from Germany though, but my english is very fluent, so ppl won't notice, I hope :D.
Furthermore I don't have a youtube channel and no experience on video editing but I wanna get started in those subjects, and this tournament is my incentive to get into it. I wanted to make FAF casts for quite some time now, but didn't really have that decisive push to get me started, but NOW is the time! Am I of use?
I would cast some games in german and some in english, but mostly english. A logo doesn't exist yet.
How many games do I cast? I can dedicate maybe 3 hours per day or so to casting. (And of course I will practice quite some amount before starting on the tournament matches!). The name of my youtube channel will be just "Rikai"

This project seems to work well, gj!
I'll be playing! Actually what seems to be the missing the most is a TD.
I suggest you to wait for the end of the URC so your event won't be in the shadow of the current one.

Good suggestion! I wasn't aware that the current tourney would be running so long. Luxey, if you are going to live cast your tourney games or you want to cast in the downtime go ahead and post your info and I will tag you in the promo.
