If you haven't already done so, I would encourage you to get in touch with prominent community figures about this, for multiple reasons:

- it's possible they have already tried something like this (there are lots of community streams already that I expect to be interested in GSL qualifiers as well), so maybe they can give you some insight into what they did and where they got stuck

- some (like Artosis or Incontrol) may have contacts within Blizzard to help you get past the being noticed problem

- they can help you promote and spread the word about your plans

- if you are successful, you should probably coordinate with other community streams anyways. Personally I would prefer if GSL qualifiers are streamed on an existing channel because it would prevent community resources from further fracturing, plus it's much easier to notice if GSL qualifiers show up on e.g. Basetrade.

I'd start with contacting Basetrade and the Pylon Show to cover the most important community stream and the main outlet for community news, respectively. Artosis and Incontrol have expressed both frustration with how Blizzard facilitates and advertises esports and a desire to promote new community projects so I'm sure this would help you in some way.
