Hey, as much as I love the idea behind this project and I would contribute if needed/possible, I think it's rather hard to keep it on a daily basis. I mean, it surely is possible but if you say it like you just did you are sort of 'forced' to do it on a daily basis. While it might be better too release 2 or 3 episodes a weak going deep in a certain area for an hour ?
I really sound like a ignorant fool now I guess but, it's easy too lose interests from outsiders if you don't follow your plan :(
So yeah, don't take my words in a bad way, it's just my opinion. Best of luck with the project nonetheless, hope I get an interview sometime later on when I grow up haha !

Mozared ModeratorLadies and gentlemen, allow me to present to you:
Sc2Streamster
What is this I don't even?!
Sc2Streamster is going to be Sc2Mapster's streaming channel, where we plan on holding shows (similar to Day9's) focused around mapping. We plan to bring mappers (that's you!) or even just people with a mild interest in mapping (that's you, if it wasn't earlier!) a mostly daily show that revolves around all aspects of the Galaxy Editor.
Cool, so what've you got?
Currently, Sc2Streamster is a project ran by me with backing from Sixen. The plan is that every evening, monday through friday, we bring you something interesting in terms of mapping on the stream. Our Schedule so far:
Monday- Data Mondays are currently not being hosted.Tuesday - Triggering Tuesday! This evening, ??? will be here to show people how to code cleanly and work with triggers.
Wednesday - Newbie Wednesday! This day, zeldarules28 will be your host in explaining some of the very basics, so you can get to mapping even if you've never touched the editor before.
Thursday - Terraining Thursday! This day, I shall be your host and handle the terraining portion of the editor.
Sunday - Mapcraft! Sundays from 9 to 11 PM CET (GMT+1), which is around noon for US citizens, Mapcast will be a podcast hosted by the lovely TheAlmaity, Mozared and our very own Sixen. We'll have one different guest each weak to talk about the latest maps and buzz in the modding community.Mapcraft is also currently not being hosted.Note that we plan to hold 10-15 minute Q&A sessions at the end of each 'daily', to tie up some loose ends for people.
Can I help?
We will need a lot of help if we want to keep this running all properly and well, and if you think you can assist us in some way, be it in creating overlays or something else, don't hesitate to throw me a PM and we'll consider your offer.
Alright, so when does this go down, and where?
Well, as you can see, we plan to have a show pretty much every workday. The times are a bit problematic, because all of us are in different timezones.
(NOTE: THE "X PM" AND "YTIME" AND "GMT-Z" ARE PLACEHOLDERS AND WILL BE FILLED IN ASAP)
-(US) Data Monday will start at 4 PM on EST, which is GMT-5-(US) Triggering Tuesday will start at 9 PM on CDT, which is GMT-5
-(US) Newbie Wednesday will start at 8:30 PM on PST, which is GMT-8
-(EU) Terraining Thursday will start at 9 PM on CET, which is GMT+1
-(EU) Sunday's Mapcast will start at 9 PM CET, which is GMT+1Note that this means that if you are in the US, most EU casts will start between 12 AM and 6 PM in the afternoon, depending on your American timezone. If you are in EU, US casts are mostly unwatchable because they happen at times like 6-7 AM in the morning. Also note that all videos should be available as VOD files on the stream, should you want to view a show lateron.
