Hey guys :-)
As some of you have probably noticed, we are organizing a new series of ClanWars called the GameCreds Invitational (gCi), awarding the winner team with a nice 500 Euros cash prize!
I hope it's ok for me to post here (notified the admins about it by PM) - this post is not an ad for the tournament (please, see the official TL post here for additional info), but rather... a call for ShoutCasters! :D
We were kind of overwhelmed with registrations from awesome EU teams, and we've decided to "go big" right from the start, and work out some nice Live Coverage for the community!
So, we should be able to set up 2 LiveStreams, broadcasting as many Ro32 / Ro16 Games as possible, and litterally all games starting from Ro8.
That's a lot of games, and there's room for talented english shoutcasters willing to help!
Anyone interested, please send us an e-mail (well, PM here or on GameCreds also work but e-mails can be forwarded, etc. - more convenient) at staff@gamecreds.com with a short message including:
- a link to one of your recorded shoutcast (VOD, etc.)
- the speed of your internet connection
- your knowledge of Flash Media Encoder (can be downloaded here for free)
The streams will be HD video - still testing the best quality settings atm- and we have unlimited bandwidth, courtesy of Dailymotion.
Also, the games will take place on the EU battle.net servers, and the tournament will start this week - on Thursday (yeah, I know, short notice) and last until mid-January (with a 1 week break, due to xmas / new year)/
Thanks!

Thanks to all those who contacted us
We still have room for more shoutcasters! Just to give you an outlook of the participating teams (full list + brackets/seeds here):
- Team fnatic - Team Dignitas - Incredible Panic (iP) - Northern Darkness (nD) - Alien-Invasion - Moose - Millenium - aAa - LDLC ...and a lot of 3k-rating teams
Let us know if you'd like to shoutcast a few games on the official stream!

Well... you still have time to download and try it :D
More seriously, I'll ask the tech team and see if Dailymotion Live supports other streaming software. (But FME is the lightest and most powerful one from what I get)

That would be awesome! We'll PM him here and see if he's interested
Basically, almost ALL games have the potential to be awesome - starting from Ro32 (I'm sure all Ro16 encounters will turn into must see games )

Don't worry, we'll run the GameCreds Invitational on a monthly basis (or so - 32 teams means playing quite a lot of games!)

I agree we need to revamp a few features - it's ongoing! Just takes some time and we're brand new...

We don't allow threads like this recruiting casters, coders, artists, etc. While one thread might not be harmful, if everyone treated TL like a specialized job message board, it would push down actual threads with content very fast.
Good luck with your event.
