their main duty is to do livestream and keep that hyped up and such and keep good matches on it.... im never going to turn people down who want to help record matches...what about other people plank? are they just going to get mostly pools matches and early round brackets? id hate to see some1 lose get their chance to record and upload because of a business.
west coast doesn't *** with vgbootcamp. seriously (i know for a fact norcal melee doesn't, and if norcal melee TO does **** with vg bootcamp i'll have a talk with them and will change FAST). i bet money that they have a business mentality of smash and use it as a gateway into other communities. if a more profitably, more well known, more established community like street fighter ever asked for vgbootcamp, they're leaving this community asap. their channel would look like getyourtournament's or gimpyfish's within a heartbeat.
though you force yourself on the community in post (from what i see), you truly are a good channel, much props to you there. i'd say you're probably the best uploader. the only difference is your channel isn't linked to wombo combo like thewaffle77, so people who don't even know smash sub to brandon allll the time. he jumps hundreds of subscribers per month.
i've heard rumors of apex and how vgbootcamp ran recoridng set ups, how they wanted priority on the melee tv at pound4, and according to the experiences of people i've spoke with and the rumors i've heard they're ********, even though they do get **** done.
so **** vg. if you set up your recording equipment on a primary tv don't move unless plank or a TO asks you to. if vg asks you to, hold up that middle finger high son.
i'm not gonna lie mccain, this is going to be harder for you, but i hope you own the **** out of the non believers.
VGBootCamp asked me to transfer all my hours of recorded footage to their hard drives at the end of Pound 4 last year. They did the same thing at APEX, except this time they threatened at the beginning to not let me upload at all if I didn't comply. I understand the importance of controlling the flow of media at these nationals, but I don't appreciate the attitude VGBootCamp takes towards people like me who reliably recorded such a huge amount of footage and uploaded them all, weeks before VGBC even started to edit their copies of matches.
A lot of the duplicate YouTube copies from past nationals killed the hype, especially for sets like M2K/Armada from APEX. That's why we pretty much decided not to link to any of VGBootCamp's copies in the official Pound 4 videos thread unless we had to, and that's why they should never forcefully take away footage from people who record in the future. Melee nationals deserve media personnel hired from the heart of the tourney scene to handle recording/uploading, not a group like VGBootCamp that, with all due respect, does not possess half the knowledge of the Smash community that the rest of us do.
lol, i hope i'm not reading too far into this, but don't get emo on us LOL jp. you do have good intentions though, so no true harm is done.I do force myself on the community a lot. Sorry about my behavior, everyone
congrats on getting a **** load of good matches. i suggest you get commentary man! it's A LOT more work but pleeease. at least for quarters, semis and finals. i'll talk to brandon to see if he's cool with making a support video for your channel..your views/subs will skyrocket.not to be a name dropper, but i just asked hmw on the WGF stream if he was coming to p5
"nah prolly not =("
lol I wonderrrrr why...for some strange reason im kinda more hyped for the super bowl than pound now
good thing the super bowl is like 2 weeks before afterward ill resume full pound hype
Just for a while, my parents live nearby.spectator fee is a 1 time fee of $20 and you can play friendlies

are u travelling in the area from brazil for a little while or did you move to the area?
"No lodging matches your search criteria. Please change your search options and retry."
thats what u get when u search for a hotel room
gettin kinda nervous ova hea plank.
im kinda scrambling at the last minute here, thought i had a possible in into 2 different rooms and i just got a PM saying no go.
Having the same issue here with the "no lodgings" dealioreposting from the hotel thread cause having a place to stay is kindof a deal breaker when it comes to tournaments.
plank, think you know whats up or could talk to the hotel ppl to see whats up?
I do force myself on the community a lot. Sorry about my behavior, everyone
this!!! my tournament is for the people!!! If you want to record for whatever reason, feel free. I mean I do think the videos should be more condensed, but a well-organized smashboards thread is good for that too, like the p4 thread.Zant pm'd me so It's pretty much been resolved.
I have to clear one thing up though. VG is not in charge of recording at this event. We're doing the 2 live streams and we're recording the matches on the live stream setups. That's it. Anyone else is free to record matches from any other setup. Even if we didn't want you recording matches it wouldn't matter because this is plank's tournament and he wouldn't allow us to do that.
I...don't really see a problem with custom music if its not abrasive (or on the main set-up)
can you explain why you won't have it?
