Actually, this is a pretty good idea.
Although I still think there should be the latest GTMLand comic on the front.
It could keep any guests or just members informed on any upcoming events, current BOTM rules, or the latest BBEANS video.

Maybe a requirement from each tournament is to send the video files of the videos to the news group, so that they can edit together a video of it.

Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

firefox has a million and 1 youtube download addons  :gawe:

also sending the videos would mean the host would have to upload twice.. something I dont think many will want to do (especially in CC3's case with easily over 100 videos)
