Title: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 01, 2017, 01:36:32 PM
I have been watching some of the Warcraft 2 streams and have found myself enjoying some players in particular, both for their highly skilled gaming and for their amusing interactions, whom I would invite to stream a special series.

Those players are Vizzer (who streams at twitch.tv/vizzerdrixx) and SERIST102. I would like to watch a 10 game stream series between these two players, and I offer $100 to the winner after the completion of all 10 games on maps I will choose, and I would like the charming player BabyShark to comment the games live, who would also receive $100 for this role. In the event of a tie, a tie-breaker game would be the decider.

I may use these streams as part of an upcoming nostalgia event. This game has always been close to my heart and it is truly astounding that this game still has a devoted following.

If this offer is acceptable, you are free to do them at any dates and times that seem good to you.

See? Charming. :-)

Haven't you ever had a job before?

Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 01, 2017, 03:45:54 PM
Who I am is of no consequence. Did you really think you could stream on the internet and no one would find it? Who do you think is watching those?

Maybe I'm not the one who is weird. :-)

Yeah, I'm not for sale you old dirt bag.

No.
if you offer babyshark $100 to NOT commentate then she will have to do it to avoid being boughtt, and you wont have to pay her either

@Mai`Kyl  first get vizzer and seriest to agree to the series. Then you can worry about getting babyshark to commentate on it.

after talking to serist about it, we would love to do a 10 game series for you! we will discuss a time and post it up on here
Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 02, 2017, 02:53:39 AM
Excellent.

These are the maps found on the forums that are created by the devoted following of the game that interest me the most:

Pirates Lagoon
Expansion Masters
Twisted Meadows
Bowser's Retreat BNE
Zones BNE
Cut the water IWG
Ocean Bloom
Shark Infested Waters
Mr. Bean
Two Ways Around
A Diamond in the Ruff
Party at Midnight
Agent's Traps
Bayou
Canals
2v2 Skills BNE

There are 16 listed, so each of you could drop 3 maps from the selection to make it 10 total. EF HIGH setting. I just love that people are still creating maps for this game! I want all 10 vids even if it goes 10-0, but in the event of 5-5, the player who lost the last match will choose one of the 10 maps already played for a second go.

So we have the players on board. If you could post your map selections here after the paring down that would be great.

BabyShark, does eyyy's suggestion work on you? I'll pay you to not comment the vids therefore you have to? And to answer your weirdo question, I expect I'll err on the side of admitting to weirdo tendencies so I'm covered in case any are discovered.

Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: woofy on June 02, 2017, 09:07:32 AM
SERIST102 was a gow bne/f beast. if he's killing it @ old/ef, surely he must've been smurfing prior as it usually takes quite some time to adapt to ef from the f scene - esp since he hasn't be back for several yrs
Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 02, 2017, 09:46:51 AM
Alright. If you're featured in at least half of them, you can get Xurnt and Mousetopher to share the other 5 if they are willing or one or both could comment with you, even. If you want to have 2 or even 3 commenters at a time per game, that's fine. Any way you can work it out amongst yourselves is fine so long as you are in half.

Xurnt, are you the leader of this Warcraft 2 gaming group? Would I be able to forward the funds to you and you allocate them to the series winner and then yourself and/or Mousetopher since BabyShark is painfully rejecting it?

I will also need all participants (both players and commenters) to return an email consent waiver that will allow me to use your videos in whole or part/voice/screennames/etc. in any manner, such as advertising, in public or private events, such as and old games nostalgia celebration event etc.

Xurnt, Mousetopher, are you willing to share commenting duties with the slightly paranoid reluctant one?
Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 02, 2017, 09:48:44 AM
Also, Vizzer/SERIST102, if you could post the 10 maps of the list that you want to keep, that will be great.

As long as you inform the participants for the usage and do not use the content in a negative for the group way (like mocking) it should be fine.
And definitely advertise your old game nostalgia celebration event on the forum!

I do believe that something like this could be good for the group! I'm also trying to get a pro startcraft 2 commentator to do a commentating for war2.
This could advertise the group and we could get a new wave of players back.

BabyShark, think you are doing a deed for the community instead of the guy. I'm pretty sure now everyone wants to listen to your commentating!

I am sure the players will provide you with where to send the funds.  You are going to let Babyshark upload them to the youtube channel right! She is a manager there  and we have been waiting for her to start some this is the perfect time big series and fun maps = alot of new players!

I think that he is not interested to hear my voice. I can not do live commentaries (not % right I might actually be able to do, I just never tried to stream), but I can do a commentary and upload it at youtube after.

But if my voice is accepted I'm willing to take some of the load :-) also there is @justinschmidt which might be able to do a commentary too!
Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 04, 2017, 12:32:16 AM
We have players Vizzer and SERIST102, we have commenters Igognito and BabyShark, now we just need the 10 map selection from the players from the list of 16 and you'll be set to go.

I was saying to Igognito, just be natural, be yourselves, have fun with it.

A thought came to me that would also be quite entertaining, and that would be to have Vizzer/SERIST102 audio interaction available on Vizzer stream as well (separate from comment streamer who sees all of course). I'd up the winner prize by $75 for this added feature if you can swing it.

Also, does anyone from here play Starcraft 1? If any of you know any top Starcraft streamers, PM me.

Technical issues resolved! I can stream and make a live commentary! :fro:

So now we miss the 10maps and a date to start!

If Babyshark is upto it we could try to do also a double commentary!
We can coordinate through discord!

We should try it first though :-P

The players seem to be AWOL with no response.

If we don't hear from them by the end of tomorrow, I will start looking for 2 new players to replace them. They would be skilled in the game and evenly matched with each other with good attitudes and clean (profanities won't look good in my vids for what I'm using them for). I would like the vids done by June 22nd so I have time to have them edited etc. prior to showing them to my audience.

Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 06, 2017, 09:38:22 PM
Thanks for letting me know.

You seem to have read the right books. Don't tell the boss about a problem unless you have a solution. :-)

Can you kindly ask them to please post their 10 selected maps here?

I'd appreciate it.
Title: Re: Special Invitational Offer, $$ Bonus
Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 06, 2017, 09:40:56 PM
I've taken a look at the edited map and I approve it to replace the flawed version. Thanks. I almost would strongly urge them to play this one since you put work into it. Thanks by the way.

Post by: Mai`Kyl on June 06, 2017, 09:48:17 PM
Are you the owner? Nice thing you got going here. Well done. It is definitely more loose with rules and conduct than most gaming groups so it's been a little surprising to see some of the content that isn't moderated but to each his own I suppose. It must be a really tight-knit group with few new players?

Overall, really nice.

It's a joke Blid isn't really that mean he's usually pretty level headed, though a troll sometimes. I've had over $1000 in the total prize pool money for all my tournaments combined so by the 10% policy I'd owe him $100+. Also no Blid I will not send you the $100 :P. LOL

Eyyy I will deal with you later.

Presently, I would like to thank the participants in this special series and once again remind them to have fun with it and be natural as I have enjoyed what I've seen from this group so far.

I am really looking forward to watching and sharing the videos of what I imagine will be a rare and unique opportunity to watch some of this wonderful old game's talented players face off on some very neat maps created within your own gaming group.

It was such a neat find when I realized people were still playing Warcraft II.

I'd encourage all the readers to support your game's ambassadors and take a moment to share words of encouragement and wish them luck in the series planned for tonight.

Unfortunately my internet sucked yesterday and couldn't stream, but I live commented/recorded the games and uploaded on war2bne channel in youtube.

Note: videos are not edited!

The games where great and was very fun to do so (even if I got tired at the 5th game).
I would love to do a double commentary one of these days!

Maybe a bonus 11th game from Vizzer, SERIST?

I haven't got to watch all of yours yet, Vizzer, but from what I've seen so far, they are highly entertaining and exceed my expectations. Even better than I'd hoped. You two are a great match both in both skill and personality. The unusual maps make them even more of a novelty. I honestly think the videos produced from this game series are some of the most watchable Warcraft II playing videos that have been produced to date.

I might even want to do a repeat down the road, perhaps even in teams of 2 with the crew you had so far, on 10 new maps if the interest is there.
