Stream DOD?

Hey so after figuring out how to stream for sc2, I've decided why not stream dod as well? So for the draft, I was thinking of streaming the top rated match ups in HLTV and possibly get some people to shoutcast. I could shout cast, but I know there might be those who are better than me at it (corey, I'm looking at you). Anyways I think this would be great because not only would you be able to hear the shout casting but be able to watch it simultaneously. Streams are a pretty big success in E-Sports right now, I think dod could only benefit from it and I think it would be kinda fun.
My stream is here:

Let me know if you guys are interested and if any teams want their games to be streamed then send me a PM or hit me up on steam.

I think this would be fun to see, definitely a good idea for playoff/tournament matches at least.

corey and chuck did a pretty good job commenting the lower playoffs you should let them do it.. and maybe if they do it for the MOTW have the 2 teams play a hour later or hour earlier so they can shout cast

having someone else stream the video is closer to how the scbw/sc2 casts work
for the uninformed you have an observer who has control over the "camera" for the game and goes around the map looking at shit and clicking stuff as the play by play + color commentator describe the action
its a difficult task because you have to be alert so you dont miss anything and you have to know what you should be looking at/for. if you focus on a giant army moving across the map doing nothing instead of a drop thats going on in the guy's main then you're doing it wrong for example:

anyway its like a 3 man tango so that shit is mad deep k bye

Willing to help some with either play-by-play or the camera. I have experience doing some play-by-play with sports but not in the DOD realm.

I believe I would be the camera guy because I only have two options for sound, either my microphone or what you'd hear on my computer, AKA ventrillo and dod. So I would have to be the camera guy and let the other guys talk so that you can hear them. when are the semi's and finals?
Also it would be better if the shoutcasters and myself could be in the server rather than hltv just because it looks better, but we'd need a server with 16 slots including hltv (12 players, 3 casters including me and hltv) and there aren't many teams with servers like that. I'd also have to look into delaying the stream a lot more so we don't get stream cheaters.
damn it's on the 31st? I actually don't know if I'll be around as I'm going to be at MLG that weekend for sc2. I'll see what I can do, or maybe we can get the teams to reschedule that match.
