Nice concept, I really liked the GomTV made Yellow learns SC2 series as well as the Brood War Hyungjoon becomes a progamer. If you can make the show even remotely close to that good, I would be a regular watcher!

A few suggestions that you can incorporate given your resources (some of which you have already talked about)

-player bio (age, occupation, goals in life, what his parents think about him playing starcraft, his personality)
-sc bio (ladder ranking, what race did he chose and why, how long has he been playing, what is his training regimen, things he needs to work on and strengths, other things he would need to become successful, who is his favorite player, what kind of style does he play, rivalries, his goal in sc2, a description of good team and his relationship within it)
-some funny questions (give him words and all him what the first thing that comes into his head is, good insight into personality )

-it would be nice to follow up on the players some time later to see how they have progressed. Remember, the community wants to follow players, not just know about them.
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!

I think short episodic updates profiling these semi-pro players from NA is a great idea, it sounds fun especially if you're kinda pitting them all against each other. It's like what Redbull Training Grounds could have been if it were actually for low-mid tier players.

I'm sold on the concept, but I wonder if 6 days a week is a bit much depending on how long each show actually is. Remember, we're sorta saturated with content to watch, so while I see a lot of potential in this, you really want bang for your buck on the actual amount of time spent watching.. too much past 1 hour and it can be tough for people to get into or find time for.

either way, you have my follows etc, i'll watch. good luck

Hey! Thanks for the reply.

I definitely agree with the "redbull training grounds" idea. I don't mean to announce things ahead of time but as per a suggestion by DJWheat when I pitched this idea to him, he actually recommended doing something like a 8 or 16 person invitational with the first 8 or 16 players I do this project with! It's definitely something I'm interested in doing, but for now I'm just making sure I get my feet off the ground!

And I 300000% agree about oversaturation right now. That's actually Why I've broken it up over 6 days. I didn't want to have one or two blocks where I'm doing this for 2 or 3 hours. Instead, this project is going to focus on short, 30ish minute segments. The interview is expected to be 20-30 minutes, each game cast is just a single game, and the fun time might be the longest at an expected 30 to 45 minutes. The goal is, a manageable amount of Starcraft on a consistent basis, with vods available for those who are busy on particular days. =]

Hope that helps! Thanks for the feedback! =D Please be sure to let me know if you think any segments are too long once the actual launch happens!

nope, that's the perfect amount of time. The kind of thing you can squeeze in easily between two tournaments if you had to. You'll have my eyes, anyhow, gl.

I don't get it... you cast three vZ and claim to have covered all matchups? When you cover a TvP for example?
Anyways, I probably won't watch it because of time zone difference and such, but good luck with your event. NA lacks some regular events, imo.

edit: ah, not I get it.

This seems really cool. Exactly the sort of thing that's needed to get people caring about NA players.

Oh man that's embarassing. Thanks for the catch! Was supposed to be XvZ, XvP and XvT!

Not sure how much I'll be able to watch (got an early job and usually have to go to bed around that time) but I like the idea and I hope it works out well. With all the kind of negativity surrounding the NA scene and failed projects in general this one definitely seems like something that shouldn't be too difficult to pull off while giving some hard working players (and yourself) some good attention. Good luck!

Great idea, and a big step in the right direction. Seems like a lot of work but if this is successful, will definitely pay off! Good luck to all players involved and feardragon for organizing it, and hope this helps relatively unknown NA talent and the NA scene as a whole.

This sounds like a very cool idea and I hope it really takes off! It's great to see people doing what they can to boost the North American scene. Two players you may want to take a look at are Eternity Gaming's Kalinov and NuBrGNi. Both are relatively unknown despite being very talented. Love the concept of the show and can't wait for the first episode.
