When I was newer, one of the best things about ESEA was that I could find a couple friends and watch an STV with them and try to learn from the game. I want to make this season's LAN finals into a full on event for newbie mix players.
What I want is on Saturday and Sunday we have channels where players can talk and watch the LAN and maybe even be in mumble with some more experienced players to try and analyze what is happening at LAN and hopefully make this season's LAN into a learning event rather than just pure entertainment. The biggest thing that I want to make happen that won't happen otherwise is the ability of new players to watch an STV and ask a more experienced player questions about what they are watching. Streams and casts are AMAZING but it doesn't help much with learning if you have a question about something a caster said, or if the caster ignored or missed an event that you think is important. I want to make a place where there is communication both ways so that players can interact with the games they watch rather than just view them.
I'm opening doors to anyone who would like to help/participate with this event. Hopefully we can do this for every match and I'm going to be focusing on these rather than running newbie mix pugs for the weekend. Please reply to this post if you have any comments or suggestions, and message me on Steam if you are interested in doing something particular for these.

Mumble address?
We got slots, you'd be welcome to hang in eXtv mumble (dal.eoreality.net:64760) . I was planning on chilling there while I'm watching the LAN.

Yea just having people in there to answer questions, and explain what's going on and why it's happening would be awesome.
It's just about helping them learn more about the game, but you may have to point some things out that may not be applicable for some people, because a scout with 40% accuracy can't play the exact same as a scout with 90% accuracy.

Yeah, Tragic prefers to fully sponsor all our events, so we'll do it in the address disengage posted. Honestly, if LAN is going on, just show up any time and I'll try to get a system where it's either based on specific coaches/classes or something else to do. If anyone has any ideas to organize it, please let me know.

Wtvr. I'd rather talk about matches I'm watching than listen to them.
