Kommunity streaming poll and discussion

[HafCoJoe]

By a "community stream" I mean a twitch.tv stream that would involve a list of streamers that would be run and organized by the twitch.tv community.

I am thinking of starting a KSP twitch channel involving all the less prominent streamers. Or if I end up not creating a channel, I want a tally of people who would stream on a KSP channel if they had said option.

Select all that apply and discuss below!

-I commented to soon about not enough interest and it seems like some people would watch. More community reach would also add additional viewers.

It doesn't matter if its interesting or not I've decided to run another poll in a week when I'm more free. Thanks again for the comment on time zones. I make sure to leave it running longer before commenting down.

This is quite a task to accomplish. In fact, KSP-TV started with this very same goal. I think you need to be more pro-active and approach certain streamers yourself, to gauge interest

I did not know KSP-TV had this goal in mind! - Good to hear you thought of that as a start-up idea. I'm really just taking a survey to see how many people would actually join a stream, but yes if/when I start a community twitch I'll need to be much more personal. What I really need to start is a list of maybe 6 streamers that could do half an hour to an hour of streaming in evenings of time zones. I'd be handing the streaming code of my personal stream to a number of people and keep a log of streamers in a Google Doc probably that way everyone can edit. If someone misuses the code I can reset and re-pass in PMs. Be looking for another poll in about a week if you want to either host or join. My CP runs KSP fine but doesn't stream well so I'd probably just be hosting and possibly doing an occasional laggy stream. You can check my channel for an example of what I currently stream.

Later all.

:/ Not enough people to make it worthwhile. I'll do another poll in a few weeks.

1) You ran that poll for 2.5 hours before deciding it was useless

2) Most of Europe had passed midnight when you posted it

What did you expect, exactly?

Anyway, what KasperVld said. You need to get more of an idea of what you want to be streaming and then approach people to see if they're interested. They'll spread the word if they are and you'll almost certainly get more interest than you would by making a forum thread containing very little actual information for potential streamers to go on (like what they would be streaming, what kinds of things you want to see on the streams and so on).

I stream kerbal on my channel from time to time.

However, it is not the only game I stream and I only stream occacionally and in rather bad quality.

I do not believe my contributions would be very interesting to anyone.
