Hey, I was just curious about the process to become a Featured Streamer, and if it is possible to nominate Rigid to that status. If its based off skill, his Zerg play is extremely high level. He has wins against Huk, Idra and other higher level players as well. I am sure he will post the replays at some point.

He is well mannered and regularly talks with his stream viewers and answers questions as well. But yeah, how is this done and can we get Rigid into that?

Getting featured on livestream is EXTREMELY difficult, ive met all the requirements and submitted liek 10 times and been denied each one -_-

I think only featured streams can go on featured streams @ tl

Whats his rank? I mean I don't think its necessarily based off that. I am actually not even sure the criteria they use. For example, Steven Bonnell has been streaming since Beta and is has over 1000 points and isn't featured. When I watch he also teaches people what hes doing, so I dunno exactly what they are looking for.

Out of everyone, Debo is the most deserving of receiving a featured stream. The guy has been streaming since beta. Has an upwards of 600+ viewers on average without being featured. He is pretty creative and skillful in his builds. Talks to the viewers all the time and has a great WOMBO COMBO youtube video that someone made for him.

Do you mean verified? I heard it took only a few days once you actually get a few pre recordings on there.

the problem would be that if it wasn't so difficult, there would be 50-100 featured streams

everybody wants his/certain peoples stream to be featured, kinda like when people are going nuts if someone special isn't invited for a tournament

Yeah verified/featured or whatever, i dont think pre recordings is my problem since ive got like..50 saved eps or something 30+ minutes each(some shorter some longer)

its just difficult

I definately agree with the Debo argument. He is extremely funny, but I think his cursing is what holds him back from being featured. And Rigid at the moment has 1158. I think he is 13th in his division, and he is Diamond, of course. Though, his division has Huk, SLush, CatZ, Hashe, Zelniq and who knows who else, so 13 is certainly respectible.

Anyone in the top 300 or so with 500 games played has got to have some wins against elite players. I'm not sure how picky tl.net can be about featured streamers at this point but I'd imagine they could be really picky. Perhaps something more than ladder performance would help his case. Do well in some tournaments.

The best way to become a featured stream is to let TL staff know. They'll consider the request after reviewing the stream. Make sure not to spam TL staff about it, or else you'll never get featured. See Chill's thread about streams: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=145584

Maybe since TL is updating it's interface and settings maybe they could have a way to set your 'preferred' streamers for yourself. So it will have "Featured" streamers, "Preferred" streamers (that just you see) and then the collapsible link for the rest.

That actually sounds like an awesome idea.

This is actually an excellent idea. Maybe whoever locks this thread in the very near future will consider this.

Edit: Now that I think about it, it would add a bit of clutter. So maybe an optional interface.

That is perfect. I really hope that the TL staff sees this idea.

I wish steven bonnell were featured, but I can understand why he isn't. He is bad mannered and throws a lot of games, but he only does it for the entertainment value.

Honestly I think if you are consistent for 4+ months and you can bring in 1000 viewers consistently then you deserve to be sponsored. Orb met that when he streamed, and trump meets that criteria now. Some brood war people were getting undeservedly featured toward the beginning, but that has died down and I think what we have now works.

But if there are ever more than 3 or 4 featured streams online at the same time, there are probably too many featured streams.

I second. That sounds like a really great feature, I know personally it would come in handy for me. Take note TL staff!

we could use more featured streams, it seems a lot of the people who were streaming during beta, are no longer... Probably because they're training for tournaments.
