A bit of info I've copied over from ETF2L:

We are hoping to provide some coverage of this Highlander season (and beyond) in addition to the casts by TF.TV and VanillaTV (if any). This will include both high and low division games.

We are also looking for anyone who fancies having a go at casting/streaming, both first timers and experienced lads/lassies.

In addition, if you have any suggestions about upcoming games which you would like to see casted or are in a team and want us to provide coverage for your official, please post your ideas on the BlackOut forums:

Jon will be the primary contact regarding these stream channels, however if you have any questions then feel free to contact me as well.

Sent you some monays :)

Your best bet would be to post in the ETF2L Recruitment sub forums which are specifically for Highlander:

Also, is eXtv likely to be willing to set up another donation drive for i49, or would it be another person/org?

I am not familiar enough with how i46 was eventually organised.

It'd be interesting to know roughly how much it would be to send 1 team to i49 if flights were booked in say, late April or earlier?

Sorry D':

I believe NA teams are also welcome to sign up provided they play on EU servers. Groups will usually consist of teams from similar timezones where possible.

Thanks lamefx.

Is it possible to add times to the thread title? I can't seem to do it on the original post.

I am very pleased to announce that Huhy has agreed to stream the semi finals onwards with Arx and Beta on casting duties! Tune in to Huhy's Twitch TV channel from 5:30pm CET :)

- Brutal Legend
- Tomb Raider
- Torchlight II

9 men have already beaten TwistedPlay in the group stages, so perhaps we'll see another upset!
