I think that was me

But yeah, I do live stream EL, although I only have one screen on my desktop and mostly don't watch the chat. I can't imagine that I get very many viewers, but it's a good way for me to try and convince my friends to play.

Yes, that was me! Twitch was being kind of laggy, though, so it became a bit of a nuisance to try to keep watching. I think it was because of all the traffic for the EVO championship. It was happening on other streams, too.

I believe I saw you stop by Sokolov's stream the other day! It was fun to see another player!

Hello, I have streamed a few times and have a few videos up on Youtube, though my computer glitched and I couldnt even get on my account for a year, so all my subs left :P

Anyway, depressy things aside I think it would be cool to have a triple stream game, get all of us in one game, maybe more, and all of us stream. Even better if we all have skype, why not all be in the same call for laughs? advertise each others streams and get more viewers due to three stream channels being up not just one?

If you are all interested I will leave my steam and skype info here:

Other than a couple of crashes, that multiplayer game ended up being far more stable than any of my single-player campaigns. Though at the end it was just me and three AI's anyway. I went with the smaller map, so I wonder if the amount of information on large maps is affecting the stability of the game.

I'm realizing I have no idea how starting a multiplayer game works. If anybody is out there, can you check to see if you can join my game? It's called "Larcent's Twitch Game".

I'm setting up a multiplayer game and will try to stream. It will probably be a disaster, but figured I want to check it out.

Tried to stream again this morning but the game is just irrevocably screwed. Crashing every single turn. So I won't be streaming EL again until the next patch. Ah well! I may stream some other games instead.

Unfortunately the games are a bit crashtastic for me. Not sure about others. I started a new non-streaming game this morning to see if there might actually be an issue with streaming itself (these crashes didn't start until I started streaming). Sadly, first crash in round 61 when trying to buy a hero. It kind of makes it a chore to play. Not sure about watching though.

That explains it! lol You have a pleasant voice and articulation, I hope you keep streaming! It was very nice to watch yesterday when I didn't have the option to play the game myself.

And you're right, there are way too few EL streamers!

I'm going to be live-streaming with the new Roving Clans faction in a little while in case anybody wants to tune in. My Twitch channel is here.

Anybody thinking of doing this or is doing this? I just discovered that my computer is strong enough to stream it (don't ask me to stream anything really intense though) and am considering whether I should. I've noticed one other guy streaming games on Twitch and that is it.

Yes, I watched your stream for a bit. I went ahead and set up a stream of my own and played for about an hour. Except I neglected to check the box to archive the video in my profile so it's not going to show up on my Twitch archives. Oh well. Live and learn.

Like you, I only have one monitor and I have a mangled old set of headphones whose microphone no longer works. I'll have to pic up a new pair so I can comment on what I'm doing. If anybody stumbles on it who hasn't played it, they probably won't have much idea of what's going on.

I've found that doing both results in a noticeable performance hit, so I intend to record seperate ones from the times I stream and just upload those. I'll probably make a youtube channel and upload to there too and shoutout PANCZASU from the channel as a much more prolific source of EL content.
