Casual Casts S18

Hey because I'm not playing on some open team this season, I'm wanting to do some casual casts of matches in Open and IM. Mostly because I still want to do stuff in tf2 and also because Open and IM don't get much coverage, and the more the better. I'm probably going to be terrible at this too, but why not. I'm mostly doing this for myself so I don't get bored, and if anyone decides to watch it, that's great. They'll be on my stream.

I'm going to try to cover a new to open match and a high open/IM match every week.
Low open to give people new to ESEA the chance to get casted as it surely would motivate new players.
And a high open/IM match because the quality of competition will be better. I'll try to pick an important or close match for this one, to get more excitement.

I'm going to use this thread to say what matches I'm doing. If there's someone that wants to join in on any of these over the course of the season, post here or PM me or something.

THIS WEEK'S COVERAGE

I'm going to cover Elite Pwnage Squad vs. Immigration Enforcement for the new to open match. Most of these player's have no history in ESEA so based on my thin veneer of research, they should qualify.

http://play.esea.net/index.php?s=stats&d=match&id=3996284
Tentatively Tuesday at 10:00 EST on Snakewater.

I'm going to cover Meat Market vs. The Subspace Emissaries. for the higher level match as they're ranked near each other on London's Power Rankings.

Tentatively Wednesday at 10:30 EST on Snakewater.

Yeah, I'm not sure whats up with linking ESEA match pages. They're the right URL's in the BBCode, but it displays another webpage.

Did anyone else think this was going to be about Casual casting matches? The guy who made the "All Else Fails" idea?

Yeee more open/IM coverage! EVLTV is casting IM this week, and hopefully IM/Open next week. If you are interested in casting with us add me on steam. This is our first season covering ESEA.

The cast begins in about an hour and a half! Good luck to both Elite Pwnage Squad and Immigration Enforcement, and have fun playing in ESEA this season.

I created a tool to show the ESEA match schedule in a hopefully better format:

http://eseaschedule.fwdcp.net/

It was created specifically for usage in scheduling casts, so I figure that you all may be able to get use out of it. Any feedback is appreciated.

Looks good and is very intuitive. Only suggestion is to maybe fit more of the match "rectangle blocks" on the screen at the same time. Right now it's kind of bulky, maybe make two columns or make the boxes smaller

RIP, one of the teams had to FFL because their demo didn't start client and it's broken.

I can't help but think that this might be the match of the day in IM: http://play.esea.net/index.php?s=stats&d=match&id=3996271

You guys should run a cast of this if it's not too late. I think it could go to 5-3 or 5-4.

I'm probably going to cast a match tomorrow evening instead.

I have a shitload of calc to do, and there is another match being casted at the same time, so I hope it isn't a problem.
