Hi guys! I just got into streaming (literally today) with a brand-new computer!! I tried streaming once on my old macbook pro, and I got 240p at... wait for it... 4 FPS. Needless to say, that's why I upgraded.
I'm having a lot of fun streaming my games and watching them back. I have only pubbed around tonight, but I'm planning on streaming some of my 6s games (not in a league, but jff) and watching them back to see how I get better.
All that talk was just context. My real question is, how can I get listed in the TFTV Live Stream list you see in the upper right? Although it's not mandatory, I'd love to get some exposure for my stream as I play more, and perhaps I'll even end up like some of the big-name streamers! :)
Do I have to register with someone? Check some hidden box? Please help me out, I'd love to get my gaming out there.
TL;DR: How to get my stream in the upper right live stream list

Thank you so much! I tried searching for it on Google, but I didn't really know what the search terms should have been ("TFTV Stream List," "Listing on TFTV new stream," etc.) and I couldn't find it! Thanks for the fast reply :)

Are you on a team? Do you play in leagues?

MR_SLINAre you on a team?
Not yet! I'm still working my way to the top. However, I play lots of mixes and pugs (although that's no substitute for a real team)
MR_SLINDo you play in leagues?
Again, not yet. I hope to soon! As I said earlier, I just upgraded my computer, and transitioning from a Macbook's 30FPS on Chris' maxframes to 300 FPS with full graphics should do wonders for my gameplay.

If you didn't know already, Slin was just trying to tell you that only IM players can stream.

Not true...
There are streamers on there from Open and even div6 that I've seen. I've come across a couple people who aren't actually in a league.
However, the players that are in teams etc do get more popular and more exposure. You won't really become a 'big name' unless that is the case for you, too

Ah, my mistake then.
At least the OP won't be as confused as I was now, then
