Now that the run up to the next tournament is in full swing, and since alot of people tuned into watch fanfest coverage, what would you like to see on the next tournament broadcast?
I'm after ideas, and suggestions on ways to make it the best it can be before we go live!
So, I throw down the gauntlet and opent he table to you all.

This we might be able to do, although being a teen rated game there might be excessive use of censoring!

roflcopterz. Can i put that quote in my bio?
Also, are you the one that makes the decisions on exactly what goes into the next alliance tourny? If so... that's amazing that you have gotten so few serious replies...
but here are a few ideas:
1 -- Possible ship setups via a kind of "fittings" screen. 2 -- Ship attributes displayed and discussed in more detail w/ bonuses too. 3 -- Portraits and character names displaying who is fighting (if participants agree). 4 -- Detailed stats on who has gotten the most kills/losses. 5 -- A countdown timer before the match begins... to build tension. 6 -- Commentary from those fighting and their explanations of what went right/wrong.
Also, as an after thought if you needed to raise a little money in game you could sell commercial slots. __________________________________________ -=White Nova=- Carebears With Teeth |

Wow. Well, I already get Loxy's FF video of MC awesomeness, and I get Farjung, AND I get to see ships explode.
I'll have a Coke, then.
Seriously, though, what are the prospects of getting prominent EVE folks on TS/Vent interviews for EVE TV? For those of us familiar with Monday Night Football, perhaps let each alliance's team leader introduce their pilots with suitable dramatic music in the background, and then have post-game discussions (maybe just in the elim rounds).

Interviews and that stuff is cool... Farjung and Jamesw go out to 0.0 and kill random npcers live. so maybe they are watching eve tv and then they notice they're being killed on eve tv :o

but here are a few ideas: . . .
I'm the lead expert and PR guru for EVETV and I'm trying to make it the best it can be before we start broadcasting and people start suggesting ways to improve. By having ideas ahead of time, from the public, we can try and integrate what we can.
Your ideas for gaining more information on the ships sound good, so I'll see what we can do. My main concern is finding the time to show all this information. With the prefight briefing in the studio, to the hand off to the commentators, there sin't alot of time between fights (assuming everyone turns up for them this time) to give a detailed brekadown.
I agree however that something similar to a professional sports broadcast would be good. Perhaps some form of statistics overlay to show how many fights won/lost, ships killed/lost, etc.
As for the commercial slots, I'm always after isk since Stavros got his free carrier last time round, so if peopel want me to coin a catch phrase I'm open to bribes

I said this before, it would either be really funny.. Or not so funny and a total mess :|
EVE TV Pop Idol
8 of either devs, gms, isd, directors, players.. All record them singing a song.
Day 3 of fanfest shows these peoples recorded songs.
Day 7 reveals the winner.
This means it only takes up 2 episodes about about.. 20minutes on one episode and 10minutes on the other.
Winner would be chosen by creating a poll and the evetv viewers voting.
Winner recieves a crate of beer.

AFAIK this has been considered. As it stands there are several community members who upload them in various places. http://www.eve-files.com/evetv/ was the repository for them last time.
But I concede the point that an official CCP endorsed torrent would be better.

Statistics before a fight and a chat about the players actually competing within each team to give the viewers an idea on some of the personalities involved.
People are joking about boobies and goodies but I'm pretty sure some female flesh would boost your ratings. A female pre-match interviewer to capture the feelings of the team members ?
So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong and to strike at what is weak.

this isnt really content related but,
anyway to make the resolution of the in-game feed better? I had a hard time seeing what was going on last time.
also, I love the idea of doing interviews with the participants over TS/vent or something, similar to how you see sports shows doing post game interviews with the football stars after they score a winning touchdown :P
I think that would add a whole new dynamic to the broadcats and really involve everyone in whats happening in the tournement instead of feeling like your looking in from the outside.

I'd like to see some of the storyline stuff. I hear about it and its a rare occasion to be insystem at the same time something is going on (and usually then its difficult to determine where the stuff is happening)(that or the greenguys are talking in system about something going on in another system).
Anyway, if its logistically possible...storyline stuff.

For me the most important thing is to have better briefings. The one thing that let you guys down last time was when you were looking for questions on the laptop, and the painful time wasted as the host had to dig through lots of comments to find a decent question.
What would work better is having a separate person off camera to handle all of the incoming questions. They could then screen the good ones and relay them to the host. That way when the host needs a question they will have a shorter list that is a lot more accessible.
The other addition I would make is to have crib sheets for the experts. Even if they already know 99% of the stuff, it's amazing when your mind will just go blank, or there will be a small gap in your knowledge. Profiles and bonuses of common ship types can be listed and the experts can read up on these during the battle (or when another expert is talking) as a reminder, so that when it cuts back to the analysis they can provide more detailed answers.
As this is an alliance PvP tournament it would be nice to hear a bit more about the alliances as well. Although it should not be the focus it can help round out the background of the tournament, and add a little more flavour. For example in the last tournament there was a tasty fight between -V- and RA, that was a bit more edgy because these two alliances are long term enemies. It's like a Spurs vs Arsenal or Liverpool vs Everton footy match - effectively a local Great Wildlands derby. Again info like this can be put on a crib sheet, maybe with someone who knows a lot about alliances briefing the host on the more interesting matchups.
Great job last time - looking forward to the next one! :)

Well, some more research on the alliances taking part would be nice. It seems that any alliance based in the North was an unknown to all the people on air.
Alliances like Morsus Mihi and Chorus Of Dawn were met by blank faces, and I imagine the same will be for Razor Alliance and some other Northern alliances this time.

Alliances like Morsus Mihi and Chorus Of Dawn were met by blank faces, and I imagine the same will be for Razor Alliance and some other Northern alliances this time.
The main problem with knowing about alliances is due to the sheer number of them. I asked RollinDutchMasters who informed me that as of a few months ago, there were over 150 ingame alliances. Now, even though only 40 took part in the previous tournament, given the sheer numbers available its not really possible, unless you dedictate a role to it, to know something about everyone.
This is what happened last time. Additionally, who do you go to for alliance information? Their enemies? They will tell you their truth. The members of the alliance? They will tell you their view from the bottom up. The official diplomatic contact? They'll give you a diluted version of what really goes on. As it stands the official contacts would be the most likely to tell you something, but it requires that you research every alliance and find a point of contact. As it was, and I freely admit, we didn't know alot about several alliances. We tried embellishing the truth with the LARPing comments towards Morsus Mihi and such, but in the end your knowledge sometimes isn't enough.
To prevent this Mebrithiel Ju'wien was brought on board to act as an alliance liason prior to the tournament. I haven't spoken to Meb, but I'm hoping that all the alliances taking part have spoken or at least attempted to make formal contact, in an effort to make themselves known.

The best way to get anything from anyone is at the Point of Sale. Maybe (if he has not already done so of course!) Meb could produce a short questionaire that would be part of the sign up process (or retrospectively sent to the person that signed their alliance up). It wouldn't need a lot of detail, but I imagine most alliances would be happy to say who they were fighting / where they live etc. Any notable events they mention could be cross referenced against other alliances (who again I'm sure would be quite willing to tell their version of events).
I'm sure if the flip side of them not providing information was for them to be called "unknowns" on EveTV then they'd be quite willing to hand over some info!

There's Alliances in the North?? 
Seriously though, I've been lacking teh interweb for a good fortnight now, but the few times I've logged onto my mates computers and checked my mails, I've seen a good amount of responses for contacts and information.
I do have a few more to get in touch with, who Ifni might have already forewarned, including getting the right contacts for a few of the final 16, but I should be able to compile a simple open-ended questionnaire for the alliance team contacts to fill out and send back to my meb-hotmail account...
...assuming hotmail can get over its current issues. Otherwise I'll setup a gmail account for the questionnaires to be sent to.

After fights, perhaps commentators could send team leaders a mail asking a question about the fight that could be of interest to EVE TV viewers...
The answer could be read later in the broadcast if pertinent, but teams would need to know beforehand that this is coming so they can provide prompt replies... No doubt many will not respond to the questions, but it may yield some valuable insights.

We need more:
- Dev interviews! There are so many great people at CCP! So be sure to hook em all up for a chat! - Dev PvP fights! Its always cool to see devs fight eachother! And under the next Dev fight, why not bring in some devs as "commentators" for that particular fight!? Also Try to set up a 1 vs 1 fight too, like Oveur vs Hellmar

I am glad to hear things are going good, I am really looking forward to this tournament.
But in regards to point 2. There wasn't much comment made on the really strong team set ups and tactics as I thought there might have been. BOB steam rollered everyone on their way to final alomost but no comment was really made on their tactics, and how to possibly counter them.
When watching Eve Tv last time wasn't always clear to see how far apart they ships were from each, was their tactic to engage and get close or keep at range. Did a certain team use all offensive/defensive drones or was it a mix.
etc etc.

I'll add something else.
As I don't know who is actually on commentary this year, it may not matter, but I was screaming at the monitor sometimes when in the middle of a battle the commentators would start talking about X random thing.
EG. In Chorus Of Dawn's match against Ushra'Khan, the commentators spent half the battle talking about how to pronounce "Huginn" correctly, failing to talk about the entertaining battle that was taking place until the thing was over, and that wasn't an isolated incident.
I just find it disrespectful when in the middle of a fighting battle, the commentators decide to talk about something else.
I apologize if I offended Xman/Xod in this post, no offense ment, but as someone who put a lot of effort into the last tournament for months beforehand, I would appreciate full focus on the match. Obviously there's only so much to say if a match is mind-numbingly boring, but the match referenced above was anything but. Many considered it one of the best matches of the group stages.
Anyway, thanks for reading.

Last time round we certainly tried to give comment on the tactics involved, but since everyone fell into one of two categories (generally speaking) there was little point in repeating ourselves everytime. I lost count of how many times we discussed the fact that so many teams were fielding huginn's.
However I understand your comments and we'll see if we can add more of that kind of detail, at least upto the point where we end up saying the same stuff at the end of every match.

Thank you. Coming from a Burn Eden pilot I find it quite ironic really.
On a more serious note, I was hoping for more constructive ideas for the tournament, whilst there is still time to alter the final product and before people criticise us for not doing something.

I would really like to see the commentators have stopclocks so they don't have to ask the judge for time. Maybe even have a Timer added in one of the corners of the broadcast so that people watching can know how much time is left of the fight.

I found the fact that the announcers were saying "um what is that they're using, its some sort of ray thingy , I'll try to find out what it is, oh its cap chargers, I think...." was a little disturbing. Lets find someone who knows what the heck all the effects are 8).

No offense to the commentators, but there were some serious gaps in their knowledge last time. Lots of little things they didn't know here and there, maybe some more research about ships and modules before the tournament.

Originally by: Miranoff this isnt really content related but,
anyway to make the resolution of the in-game feed better? I had a hard time seeing what was going on last time.
also, I love the idea of doing interviews with the participants over TS/vent or something, similar to how you see sports shows doing post game interviews with the football stars after they score a winning touchdown :P
I think that would add a whole new dynamic to the broadcats and really involve everyone in whats happening in the tournement instead of feeling like your looking in from the outside.
since i didnt see a reply by any eve tv guys about this, ill add in a tech idea for how to make this a bit more feasible (or is it PHeasible? bleh). setup ventrilo AND teamspeak and hook the output up to an audio channel. the input TO vent/temspeak will have to be at the backend of the mixer being ported into the LINE input on the soundcard, before each match get each team to submit a spokesman and give them the info for your TS/Vent server with instructions to join the server imidiatly after the match for an interview, with a please of course :P
anywho, i think that would be awesome, maybe just me :( <edit>**** login, this post is by Miranoff </edit>

Wild speculations, not after the fact reports on what's plain to see.

I sort of liked the cool subdued athmosphere of the studio last summer.
I'm still thinking if there could be ways to make it more interesting somehow.
Change the backdrop every once in a while, maybe even use a giant LCD for that with static images on it (Iron Tide, Stahlregens art, if you get their agreement).
Or I dunno, you could perhaps put some large-font statistics on a monitor - group scores, team members, stuff. Would have to be done in Powerpoint by an additonal backoffice person: It's too late for a dedicated program.
Or even re-run the latest game so commentators can point out individual tactics, like how teams use range / transversal, where everyone is moving - but that's definitely too hard to organize in a rush.
Looking forward to the weekend! Also looking forward to my Summer DVD by mail. --

Last time, drinking that bottle of pop was tame. I think you have to up the anti this time. I'm thinking about starting a collection character so everyone who wants to see you do something like that can send in a donation. How much would it take for you to snog spiral junkie on air?
Also, how about having a reporter follow one of the teams around during the tourney so you can show a wee video of what these tourneys are like from a competitors point of view. All the preparation work, all the prematch bits we dont get to see and then what goes on after a match; the euphoria of victory or the grief of losing billions.

Edited by: res0nance on 01/12/2006 21:13:49 I've got a suggestion for next match;
NO MORE AUTO-WARPING. More than one person has auto-warped, is that just me or is that a little weird?
Bug or hidden CCP feature?

Go into your flash settings and look for the setting that determines how much hard drive space it is allowed to use. The default is very low, and causes a lot of buffering. Bump it up to 1M, close your browser and restart it, and it becomes much smoother.
