VanillaTV NA-friendly restreams

Hey guys,

So we've been going through a process of just streamlining and improving our video pipeline recently for how we do production over at VanillaTV, and one of the things that's come up as a possibility is the ability to restream any cast we do at NA-friendly times.

So say we do a 1 - 1.5hr cast starting at usually around 9pm CEST (which is 2pm CST), obviously almost none of you on the other side of the pond will be able to watch it because of school/work/etc. If we were to restream the vod at say 9pm CST, would any of you be interested in that? If so what sort of time do you think would be best?

It's just an idea I had. Wouldn't be too difficult to do, so I guess if a few of you would enjoy it its worth doing.

MR_SLINWhy not watch the VOD

VODs don't bring in any *new* viewers. Also people can chat about the game or something.

A nifty idea but you'd have to schedule it at a good time and day or else you'd be competing with big NA streamers and leagues. ESEA's main season is finished, so now would be a good time to try this out.

So now that we've got our back queue of about ~20 casts now up on youtube and sorted, I've been looking into this seriously.

The plan would be "the VanillaTV 7/11 restream". Bassically we restream a match at 7pm CST, and 11pm CST, to catch casual viewers at 7 and any of you who fancy watching it after scrims at 11. How does that sound?

I say go for it. It's something that's done quite frequently for starcraft tournaments.

I don't see why not, sounds like a great idea! Vod's i notice get way less play due to actually having to click 2 additional links. I say do it, visibility in TF2.tv/reddit/vtv is great as well when it goes re-live!
