Naming Committee / [topic][2.1] WT'11 Live Time Breakdowns
-

[B]Introduction:[/B] With the WT'11 coming up, and hosting more players than ever, there will undoubtedly be a rise in demand for breakdowns. The goal of this project is to provide breakdowns of ALL the videos of a round within one week of the release. [B]Goal:[/B] See above. [B]What I am looking for:[/B] I am looking for a team of dedicated (as in no dropping out after round 1) "breakers", preferably between 6-8. You have to be able to break down combos (there will be a test!) and you need to be able to handle a lot of stress. Please remember that round 1 will be the most stressful, while each subsequent round will become easier. [B]Other notes:[/B] I want to create a public signup thread for this project. I do not think that RD alone can handle the amount of breakdowns that are necessary. Therefore, I am proposing that we create a thread in General Discussion (or wherever) looking for volunteers.

Sounds good, and I'm willing to volunteer.

wouah good luck with that; WT/WC combos tend to be very hard to breakdown and contain stuff previously unreleased or unnamed

Yea what Zombo said, there'll be a ton of content that can't be broken down. I would like to take part but I don't think I can. I'll let you know later.

yeah they would have to be unofficial breakdowns, but i think this is a really cool idea i guess you could consider me a reserve, i'm not great at breaking down combos though so only if you really need someone

We'll probably give about 2 weeks for the 1st round, 1 week is really pushing it :/ If we have six people and 100 videos, that's about 1.1 videos per day for two weeks. It's do'able. I forgot to mention, but another part of this project is just working on the concept of breaking down new stuff. I was thinking if that the material was too hard for just one person to do, we could collaborate altogether.

I think it'd require quite a bit of discussion to break down some new stuff...96 videos is too much lol. I agree with Frip that Round 1 videos should just be skipped, or maybe just take breakdown requests for Round1 and break down everything else from Round 2 onwards.

Alright, I'm going to post a public thread about this. @Zombo: If this is an RD project, do the people that get accepted into the breaking team become Researchers?

No, if you need somewhere for the whole group to work then we can make a temporary hidden subforum for you

Sure, that'll probably work. So can I start a thread in GD about this?

Before you do that you should probably figure out how you're going to choose people. Just anyone who signs up?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFxoDs-YLUE I test all potential applicants with the break down of the video. Too many mistakes (as in more than 10%) means no.

Nice, that's a good idea plus it makes sure they're actually willing to break down a video, it'd be really easy to say "sure" and then not be actually willing to do it. i'd say go ahead and post it up

How about inviting those who are actively breaking things in the breakdown request thread like Archermitch.
