How to Participate:
- Ventrilo & Microphone:
Install Ventrilo, log into the Official TeamLiquid Ventrilo Channel and join the "Guest Questions" channel. Chill will ping you if you are up next for a question, and you will then be moved into the channel where you can talk with Staff. - Forum with no microphone:
Post your question in the thread and we'll hopefully get to it.
What is this? How will it work?
We're going to be hosting the first TeamLiquid Chat session this Saturday. TeamLiquid staff will be answering user questions about anything -- TL, Blizzcon, Progaming, etc. You can just log into Ventrilo, join the TeamLiquid Chat Guest channel, and we'll move you into our channel to talk to us. If you don't have a mic, you can ask your question in the thread we create in General. The show will last approximately 90 minutes, and will be available for download after.
Current List of Staff Attending: Carnac, Chill, FakeSteve, Hot_Bid, Kennigit, Plexa
Why do this?
I think we will produce some very nice threads with a lot of fun, interesting information and discussion. You get to meet a few of the staff members who aren't as active on the forums, and these chats are very easily run and recorded (much easier than a podcast) so if its popular enough we'll make it a regular feature. ESPN regularly has chats like this with their columnists (example), and we decided we could have one not only about progaming but anything else as well.
What are some sample questions?
It can be anything. Who is the worst player among the TL Staff? What do you guys plan to do for OSL Finals at Blizzcon? Did you think Transformers 2 was a good movie? How do you feel about Jaedong-Fantasy Game 4? Who is the closest to bonjwa right now? What is Kennigit's favorite color? Why does Manifesto have such a deep voice? Why was XXX banned? When is TSL2? What progaming team does Sonuvbob like? If you had to choose three staff members to live with on a deserted island, who would they be? Etc.
Wow, you guys are full of yourselves. Will people even care about this?
If nobody shows up to chat we'll probably kill ourselves. And by that I mean we'll post for two hours amongst ourselves about Blizzcon and OSL Finals. Everyone should participate in this, especially if you are coming to Blizzcon. It should be a good time, see you there!
Will you guys answer all questions?
It's hard to predict the amount of interest this will generate, so we may be able to chat with everyone on Vent or answer most of the thread questions, but if there's too much interest we might not be able to get to everyone. Also, we obviously reserve the right to not answer stupid / inappropriate questions.
