Heya people. As some of you may know nOIZEbuddha did a big skype call for people intrested in talking about the games while they were going on. we had a good turnout with about 8-10 people on average watching the games.
Him and I were talking again this morning and thought we should do it again for premier of the new SPL season. SO that what we're going to do. This is a great chance to chat with other bw players and get some great and unique insight into the matches being played.
so I will be hosting this one. please feel free to pm me if you want my skype (since i don't just want to hand it out in a pulbic forum) or just pm me your skype.
I will check my pm's every few minutes. so send a pm.
hopefully we will see a lot of people out!
EDIT:
so since we have a lot of intrest and a lot of people in this call. I'm going to lay a bit of small but fair rules to make everybody happy
1, practice manners. try not to interrupt people in mid sentance. just mantain decent manners. that alone will make the call a lot more fun. there will be people of many different races and creeds in this call, so keep that in mind when one may have a thick accent. and don't be afraid to ask
2. try to keep language and mature humor to a minimum. some people may find some more crude humor funny. but its not always the case. when cracking jokes, make it fun for all. there are people of all ages on this call. so some people may not either get the humor, or like the humor. so please keep that in mind.
3, Have fun. this is the biggest and most important rule. if you don't ave fun or at least gain something from tonight, the entire evening did not go well. if you have questions, ask. if you want to point something out someone may not know, please do.
lets makes this a fun and friendly event for all!
UPDATE: now we are going to use TS3 for the events. Hopefully this works out better, though some stuff won't work as well as it does in skype. with the large amount of intrest, it might be easier this way
I recommend everybody to join this! I have to come two hours late as I'm working while the first two hours are, but I will go straight from work and to skype and stream! It was so much fun last time, hope people will join!

I am working on a possible soloution for this. ts3 seems so small for it. I am working on a mumble server atm. or maybe a vent one

Don't let that stop you. there are people all over the world going to be in on the call. I don't think we all have perfect english. If you want to come and just listen, thats fine as well. Plus how better to practice english than with others
I'd love to join this ! Defintely up for it for the discussion and general fun of enjoying high level korean bw play with a bunch of enthausiatic peeps

You could always just join and listen to the other guys Unless you understand korean that's the best thing to do in my opinion.
This summer I probably will be able to stream as well, would be cool to stream us(and by us I mean anyone who wants) discussing/commentating replays, VODs and live streams.

I've had bad experinces with the tl ts3. a lot of trolls.
You can setup your own passworded channel and invite people if you like. Accounts are tied to TL usernames, so feel free to report any trolls on the TS3 feedback thread.

I think skype will ahve to do for tonight. I am working on different possibilities, and will have those set up hopefully for future projects like this
Dude its really easy. Connect to TL teamspeak (free, takes 2 minutes to setup). Double click on user channels. Right click on user channels, click create subchannel. Pick a name/password. Distribute name/password via PM or in this thread or whatever. No real setup time involved

Well for tonight it will be ts3. after tonight, we will do ts3
I had fun doing this. Had a connection issue and decided just to go to bed, but it was fun while I was able to use my computer! If I find myself awake again for some late night broodwar, I'll definitely join again.
just to update people. we have about 10-11 people who should show up. remember to pm me with skype info or request my info via pm.
I am taking a little bit of a break to play some games and also eat. will check pm's every so often. will check at least 2 times an hour for the rest of the evening. if you don't hear back within an hour, I'm sleeping and will be back before pl starts.
UPDATE: we have almost 20 now. so there is a lot of people to chat with tonight.

as it stands right now, unless we watch chinese stream the skt/ace one might not be streamed.
but if it ends up being streamed. we will watch both, I assume a lot of people will have both playing at the same time.
I think there should be separate channels for those watching Woongjin vs. Hite and SKT vs. ACE. There are some people who'd like to concentrate on one ProLeague match at a time, and that would possibly spoil a bit. There have been very few instances where one of the matches isn't being streamed at all, so maybe it isn't all that bad.

We'll have to see. We will see what everybody is watching. see what everybody wants to watch
Wasn't able to stay the whole time and I stayed silent for most of it, but I really enjoyed listening to everyone's thoughts. It's kind of like chat during the match, but better!
I have learned a lesson, masterbreti, thank you. If you have a cool (non-origional tho) idea of things to do with other TL'ers, DON'T SCREAM ABOUT IT IN THE LR! Instead, make a thread, and get the credit, plus a much better venue, catered by R1CH himself
I've done this a good few times, with Conversion, Mortician, Flamewheel HOLGERIOUS Y U NO HAS MICROPHONEZ?! It's such an awesome experience to be able to emulate the feeling of sitting in a room with other BW fans talking about proleague (like that's EVER gonna happen IRL) + Show Spoiler [I've done this, its really fun] +

By the way, I've always wanted to have IRL friends .... who know BW and the Proscene in general, and while Skype conference calls don't quite emulate the feeling of physically sitting in the same room as someone, I still feel that it's a whole load of fun to be able to chat casually and discuss the games LIVE instead of frantically typing in the LR and hoping someone sees your post.
Yes, ok ok "shame-less self promotion we get it already" so I'll try to keep it to a minimum, but I plan on having an open Skype call going for anyone who feels lonely watching SWL Finals all alone, so weah, Flamewheel Mortican Conversion all appreciated and it was a blast last time we tried, so why not, I'm G.ROME2 on Skype
Also, for people trying desperately to follow the games without a working stream I's easier if someone is casting and reporting it vocally than by LR (though I still love inflating my post-count LR'ing)

uhh why not use teamspeak instead,but whatever I'll add you on skype.
Oh no! The next time I open my skype now I'm going to be flooded with contact requests... However shall I tell the innocuous BW fan from the lurking internet pedophile? Well, in a month it won't count as pedophilia anymore soooo I'm not too worried

auctally nOIzEbuddha gave me the idea to do it, and i say that in the op.
also edited the OP and added in details for tonight. tonight we will try TS3 and the Tournament stream chat there. The one problem is with that is there is no monderation on who can join. so we might get some more crude people. but last night we didn't encounter any of that, so we should be good about it tonight.

Yeah, and I just got the idea because me and masterbreti was planning to watch replays later, so we might as well talk about the live VOD. And of course, the more the merrier, so I spammed the tournament thread about it.
Just put a password on the channel and post it here. will stop random people who come in TS3 from joining. If there are "crude people" just report them to r1ch for justice.
