i can't wait for the videos from CA's showoffs for NCA next week!
BlueCat is it allowed for someone to record teams' performance at CA's showoffs and post it on youtube or fierceboard?

kingston said something like the host company thing (whatever he gets the website through) took away the option and he was trying to get it back? something like that.

I installed a new spam registration blocking feature. With the down vote turned on it would prevent everyone from registering. I don't know why and I am waiting on an update from the developer.

I know wouldn't it be awesome if the showcase was Livestreamed each night? Just saying it can be done....

We don't prohibit people from videoing our showoffs. (We generally don't like people videoing our practices, but showoffs are different.)

In the past, we had rented out a local gym/arena for showoffs, which worked great in theory. However, moving spring floors, mats, and sound systems takes a lot of work and right around NCA time is not the ideal time to be adding to the staff's workload.

Setting up a live feed is a possibility for future events at the gym, but we already have our hands (and gym) completely full at this point. We also are still having some bandwidth issues (particularly when the gym is crowded), so I don't think it is realistic for next week.

BlueCat Just for future reference...the way we Livestream does not rely on the customer's bandwidth or internet access. We use a device called Clear Wireless, it is essentially a high bandwidth mobile hub. That way the client doesn't have to worry about the Livestream bogging down their network!
Here is a link to a Livestream we did a few weeks ago for Rebel Alliance Jazz band:
McCortEntertainment.net
The edited Livestream was re-rendered in a Flash Adobe for use on the website.

We use a Clear wireless connection as well, it still relies on the local cell tower. (My understanding at least.) When there are hundreds of extra people in that area, all wireless stuff seems to slow down. It is worth exploring for next year or maybe Worlds showoffs, but our hands are too full now to even consider adding anything to the mix.
