Holla [mention=717]PharaohAtem[/mention] - do we have any links or liasons from the AL gaming team that do the events/ conventions for gaming on here? Doing some planning into setting up two styles of tournaments.

I'll post a planning page up with the details soon, either as a normal thread for people to throw in suggestions and/ or a separate one in the staff area for admin or tournament prep.

Also, I'll be looking to do a little research and grab some gamertags soon, so would jumping in the chat a few times to ask questions be best, or should it be kept to a thread?

Ah right. Talking to a couple of the events team today who are handling the London side of things. Should have a planning section up over the weekend, but want Gonzalez to get the car tournament through first.

Speaking of that, I think it would be great if there is a way my tournament would get a boost so that it could get more attention rather than me having to keep posting the link in the chat all the time.

I'd have a chat with some of the top staff to see if it could get into other sections or on the main page. Do you have AL on Facebook? I've seen all sorts posted in those pages. Plus the convention pages - may be a good thing for people heading to Cardiff or London cons something to get involved with before they meet up there.

Also, if you're streaming a practice race, I'd embed the stream on a thread or perhaps get it on the AL radio (at least the audio) in a free slot so it turns a few heads.

I do have a FB but didn't know AL has a Fb link or something, apart from the events for Geek Meets. Doing it on radio would be quite demanding and challenging but a twitch stream would be a very good thing to start it off.

Yes, twitch would be good and I think that could be stickied as a test as well.

I will look at making a twitch thread soon which hopefully I can get some testing started by probably tomorrow afternoon. I'll also send PharoahAtem a messege regarding that and see if we can get a few volunteers in for tomorrow.

Oh. Our wifi could never let me do that since it's so slow. We're paying a lot of money for it too. >.> Laaaaame piece of crap. I'd like to, but it just isn't in the cards. ;.;
