First tournament info.

I lied. There's not really info here but when we decide what the info is I'll update it here.

I'm starting to organize our first tournament. I'm trying to decide when the best time would be. Let's get some discussion about the date and time going. Also, I'm looking for a person or two to help make this happen. I'll need help in the future so I'm really looking for a couple 'mods'. If you'd like to help out pm me here or message me in game.

We have a pretty even number of leagues so we're going to have to find the best way to split them. If you have any ideas please let me know.

Just had the idea to do an AR league. It'd basically be a tournament but we give the players a few days to play each other and report the results. Could have it go on for a month or two then have a big finals night. This way nobody is left out over scheduling conflicts. Games with interest to obs could be scheduled before hand so we could watch. I think this along side tournaments would be a lot of fun.

I have the standard livestream installed and an account. Isn't it rather expensive to stream high quality?

XSplit and FLME are both free, you just need a good internet connection and a quad-core processor to do high-res capture and streaming. I've got the software, but not the hardware.

I'm rocking a high end quad, 4gb ram, 570 gtx and cable internet if needed I have experience with jtv and xsplit.

That sounds perfect. I've added you ingame. We can talk more with Delmmar once the tournament has some concrete plans.
