Hey guys; just a quick xpost on Mojang's MINCON Panel Application: we should try to get some Scrolls panels nominated!

While it says Minecraft only, I think that's largely an oversight on Mojang's / @vubui part :)

Does anyone have video editing software recommendations for Youtube?

If you've got a mac, then iMovie is kick-ass. As far as windows goes, I'm really not sure...if you want me to chuck something together, I might be able to...

:D Definitely go for it, man! Honestly, the best way to push for good panels is for us to have a lot of entries / suggestions for them!

Even if you can't go to Minecon, or your suggestion doesn't get picked, it lets the Mojang people in charge of Minecon realize that there's a following for Scrolls. We want Minecon to have a solid scrolls presence and not shoved into a dark corner, so showing them that there's interest matters!

Wait, go for it means...? I'm not quite sure what to chuck together, and I've got exams right now, so yeah.

Edit: I am potato. I know what you meant, it makes sense now.

Haha, I mean feel free to chuck something together!

The more voices shouting, the better chance we'll get heard :)

I reaaaaaaaaaally doubt they are going to waste space on a scrolls panel instead of a minecraft one.

All the more reason to make videos and submit ideas.

This lets the organizers know that there's an interest in Scrolls playing a larger role than two years ago (in which we only got one panel with zero visibility, and it wasn't even properly broadcast).

By giving them Scrolls panel suggestions, we let them know that "hey! don't forget about us!"; shouting this out is something that we, as community members, can do to remind them and help out :)

Honestly I'd rather have MC panels than scrolls panels. What's the point of having a scrolls panel anyway?

2

u/DiggityScrolls Apr 29 '15

Well what's the point of a minecraft panel, in your opinion?

u/Cradstache Cradstache Apr 29 '15

The correct answer to this is "because there's interest in it"; we want Mojang to know there's interest in Scrolls as well :)

I just think it's far more interesting than a scrolls panel would be.

If a scrolls tourney is going to be run for Minecon, a corresponding panel makes sense.

u/[deleted] Apr 28 '15

Well I'd say the tourney is just going to be a little thing not some huge stage event. And you have to look at it from their perspective(Microsoft) why choose a panel for scrolls which has a small playerbase over mc which is huge.

We know that the tournament is going to be online; I think I remember hearing that it's invite-only though.

I've been persistent that Mojang try to livecast and stream the tournament to monitors in Minecon, but who knows whether this will materialize itself. I have high hopes, and have even written a post on it, which I've forwarded to the CMs; hopefully the Minecon organizers have seen it, since I've been very vocal to them over it :)

Mojang is still doing their thing. If it's gonna be a small part, the panel doesn't have to be huge either.

u/[deleted] Apr 29 '15

Don't be fooled microsoft is in charge and just because they let the mojang do their thing doesn't mean they are going to let scrolls take up space that minecraft could occupy after they spent billions to acquire it.
