Dateranoth Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Ok. I wanted to bring this up to everyone and see what you all thought. I think it would be a good idea to have a Gamercide stream account on JTV. The account could be ran and moderated by trusted individuals from Gamercide and then other or all members can stream to it. This can be done because the stream ID is all that's needed to stream, not the Account password. Streamers could be given the Stream ID, and then stream to the Gamercide channel. The downside being, only one person could stream at a time. So, there would have to be some kind of schedule involved. I understand that not everyone could stick to a true schedule, but we could use it as a general guide line. We'd need a thread where streamers posted times they planned on streaming and when. This times wouldn't have to be in advanced. If the time block was open and no one was streaming you could jump on and stream, but you would need to let people know in the thread. That way others wouldn't try to stream over your stream. ( Not sure what would happen, but probably wouldn't work out well ) It sounds more complicated then what I have in my head but let me simplify it as best I can:Person1 has put down to stream 'whatever game' at 3.30 to 5.30 EST. So, I come in and see this and the I plan to stream after Person1. So I put down 5.30 to whenever. If Person1 cancels then they would come and post to let others know. Likewise there would be an amount of time that would be deemed late and the block freed up if the stream never began. Alternatively: The schedule is free all day. I hop on, say I'm going to stream from now until whenever. I can do this, and if anyone wants to stream during this time they could simply enter chat and ask me. I really don't think the schedule would be all that big of a deal since it's unlikely we would have enough content to fill it regularly anyhow. So, I'm curious as to what you guys think? It would be nice to have a Gamercide Channel that would cumulatively have more steady content then individual streamers and thus be able to draw more viewers. Especially if we got to the point we could have at least a few set stream times throughout the week. Also, any better ideas are welcomed. Also, would it be possible to use the forum calender for the scheduling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeKnuckle Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I like it. The into could have our link in it as well. Maybe bring in more traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfernoParadox Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Good idea, and with an entire community of gamers we may even be able to stream just about every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eminutia Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I like that idea, Dat. +1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted April 29, 2010 Author Share Posted April 29, 2010 Good idea, and with an entire community of gamers we may even be able to stream just about every day.That's exactly what I'm hoping for. If we could stream often or on a regular schedule it would draw a lot more traffic to the stream and through it to Gamercide.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylark95 Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I like the idea... makes it easier too because then there is just one place to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb410 Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I wouldn't stream but I'd enjoy watching y'all play. So I say do it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted April 29, 2010 Author Share Posted April 29, 2010 You ever find out how to stream full screen?Not with VHScreenCapture. I've looked into it and it seems it just isn't compatible with some games in full screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedington86 Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Honestly, thats a damn cool idea. People love those channels that are on a lot, with some varied "programming" what better way than a shared stream with different stuff. Cool idea.

CHINESE BABOON Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I say go for it, also are podcasts still popular? Maybe we could set up a weekly thing to get our name out there more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
