SC2SEA.com - Starcraft 2 SEA eSports Community Site

hi everyone!

Odin TV is started, and we're looking to have a big impact in the world!

With the rise of Twitch TV, everyone is hosting and streaming games. But that being said, the links are everywhere, and viewers have to look hard to find the various streams. As such, Odin Tv sets out to solve this problem, whereby streamers have to post their link, and we will publicise their stream on our site! As such, viewers need only log in to our site, and view all the streams from there. No more pointless searchings through forums and other google sites.

We need your feedback on this idea, is this a 'yay' or a 'nay' for starcraft 2 gamers? Do let us know!

Thank you everyone!

Odin TV

Morning Odin.TV,

This may just be the wrong site to advertise this on. If you cast your eye to the right of your screen you should see a little widget with the title SEA Livestreams, where in we have 1 online and 411 offline streams. Not only this, but if we decide to watch the current stream (PainUser's for those wondering) then we can watch it embedded within this website with both our chatbox AND the Twitch.tv chat in the same window. o_O

So yes, there is a market for something like this, but you'll have to one-up SC2SEA.com.

This is correct - plus even if you don't use sc2sea or TL.net - twitch game/channel browsing & follow/subscriptions works fine.

You'd need to offer much more, and perhaps even help the streamers out in some way to entice them to promote it for you. Then, you have to consider that whatever you develop - if it's good enough, Twitch.TV will simply integrate it.

I encourage you to do it, but I implore you to think outside the box and offer above and beyond existing offerings.

You should probably post the link...

Twitch.tv interface is really good for finding streams now, I don't really see the point of this unless you have some sick features... I couldn't find the site to have a look though.

I used to use TL to find all my streams but browsing on Twitch is really good now.
