Sounds interesting, I would like to take part, however I am not from Europe.

I am still on it, just a bit (read:very) busy. Havent heard back from my favourite venue, but there is one easily financable option available.

New discord channel where I will be active:

@PS: see roadmap.

@tom: I did not really get what liquipedia is all about. Care to enlighten me?

@Janek: Its no problem Janek. If you are a US citizen a visa for Germany should not be a problem.

Just a reminder, this is the roadmap:

I would be willing to commentate/do a lecture on something that's all I can contribute to this event :/

Been a bit busy with life, here is the update:

There is one viable venue, and I am still waiting on a reply from my favourite one.
In the meantime lets set a date!

was checking some videos on how to capture multiple computer sources and compose them on same stream using obs.

so if we had 2 (or more) dedicated computers with a webcam and obs installed, people could use those stations to play warlight and we could have a stream where we would switch between the views, or have them side by side. would be a nice(r) way to have livestream tournaments with overview of what people are actually doing during the match. :)

Can we test this beforehand?
Maybe on the 30th?

Farah said he could stream.

Edit: Kenny and Aura as well.

I can help testing with streams etc, but preferably not on the 30th. 29 would work for me

I was just thinking of the 30th cause WGL is going to happen then.

Since I have no clue about streaming I will let you guys figure it out! =)

As for "dedicated computer" I do have an old thinkpad t430 with kubuntu lying around we could use that if its needed.

Still open places? I am not sure if i actually have time, but i am interested after all and want to go, if i have the time

There will be enough places. You can check the possible dates on the survey (top of the page)

linberson: it's harder to setup remotely (because of router firewalls) then on a local lan. to bypass those issues some folks use cloud based servers (like linode) but on those you have to pay for your bandwidth and processing power.

I am available too, but probably not after the 28th

For now it seems nearly impossible for me, but if I get a change in when I have to work at the hospital I might be able to come.
