Dedicated Annual (Or something) RA2 League [Inactive]

[cephalopod]

From the volunteers so far I'd say Badnik or RedAce have the best knowledge of RA2 in general for the play-by-play commentator.

I love the commentary idea.  What if there were multiple sets of commentators, depending on who's in the match/who's available/the position of Jupiter/whatever?  Then there'd be a way to sort of test out new commentators without having to commit to them doing an entire season.  Also, we could see which sets work the best together.

I'd like to do commentary, but I don't think I'm fun enough to be the colour commenter or knowledgeable enough to be the smartguy commenter.

Live stream isn't hard. Plus you can record at the same time

Yeah, I'd have no problem doing that.

I bet RoboBowler would love to do commentary

Sorry for the inside joke. If you want some context, Robo will (possibly) be doing the commentary for Garry's Wars Series 2 and he doesn't like doing it.

I love this idea, and have wanted us to do something like this for a long time, I never wanted to call for it because this would be a huge Undertaking and challenge for me to do alone.

Also, I'd like to throw my hat into the ring for Commentating if its live stream. I'm currently studying Sports Broadcasting/Play by Play and am looking for a college for it. It'd be good on me, and I'd love to help out.

I think we should ditch the draft format/idea should be Each user who wants in owns a team of a LW, a MW, and a HW. Each week teams are assigned to fight their scheduled opponent in a 16 week schedule. You get points for the rounds you win (If you win MW and LW, 2 points, The guy who won the HW match gets 1 point)

Lastly, Make 2 leagues/divisions Kinda like the American/National league in Baseball. A European based and an North American Based League. 16 People can apply for each team in their respective territories league. Some dispute and discussion may be needed though for people in places such as Australia and where they could go, who don't fall into either margin.

For the playoffs the top 4 teams from Each League advance to the playoffs. The 1st round (QuarterFinals) will be 2 out of 3 games, The Division Finals (SemiFinals) Will be 3 out of 5. The final championship could either be 3 out of 5 or 4 out of 7.

Throwing my 2 cents in, Looking forward to this and hope we can get this going.

Part of the point is that users will be dependent on each other, as far as I can tell.

Everybody who is interested in commentary, because there are so many of you, i would like you to record you commentating over a random ai match in whatever version of ra2 you want. Consider it an audition.

[RedAce]

Assuming we are doing a livestreaming tourney, I need some practice first.  I gots no clue what I'm doing.  Secondly, I'd be much better as a play-by-play commentator.  I got a pretty monotone voice.

[Sage]

I've been setting up the live stream. Once I get it all figured out I can easily teach you guys

[yugitom]

Can we just get JP to do commentary? https://youtu.be/m3sQ01o5884?t=4m14s

[ecolusian]

heres my audition for you guys, i hope you enjoy and thanks to redace for making the excellent video and for the red blur for making burning horizon (i made blueprint myself)

[FOTEPX]

I'll get my audition in tomorrow.

[The Red Blur]

Hmm... I think it would work better if you commentated on a live match, rather than over a premade youtube video. Say, commentating over two random stock ai bots fighting.

[Kossokei]

Ooo I've got a big smile on my face.

Having commentary really brings life to these matches. I just wish a certain person would volunteer... can't force him though.

massimo for commentary

In all seriousness, I'd love to be a part of this in any way needed if it comes to fruition.

plz

On the one hand, it seems really cool, on the other Fallout 4 came out just last week.

Why not both? I manage to balance this, monster hunter, and college at the same time. (then again, I get internet at college, so...) MY POINT STILL STANDS!

Because I have a full time job, and because one does not simply put down Fallout 4.

If your gonna give criticism criticize the actual commentary please, this criticism is not very relevant, but I will concede I did try to record an ai match but RA2

[cephalopod]

I feel like the commentary auditions should be done on a match youve never seen before.
