Finding someone with the same music taste as you

I have had a change of plan for where I’ll be hosting and uploading the Let’s Play/Critique series; everything will be uploaded to Vimeo and Blip(dot)TV. This is due to a problem I have been having recently in which a lot of videos will just not buffer at all, even if I refresh the page several times and I believe that this isn’t going to be sorted out.

The past seven to eight years on YouTube have also left me with the impression that they’ll fix nothing, I mean their Flagging system is completely automated and I highly doubt that there’s any human input at all when it comes down to someone reporting a video.

YouTube is also just really biased as well, I mean; they throw thousands of pounds, euros, dollars, et cetera every month at people who just sit on their arses and scream into their microphones for “comedy” on a daily/weekly basis. YouTube is really not the place for what I intend on uploading.

Now onto some brighter announcements; the team is slowly growing, we have around four members being; Michael, Bryn, Steven and myself. This could grow to five, or six, but that’s yet to be determined. 

Speaking of which, we have a name; “InSpire.” The name has a bit of history; InSpire was also the name I gave to a commentary team back around 2005, there were five of us and it never really took off, as the growing number of Let’s Plays put us off from the idea of having a go at it our selves. The name came from the idea of being inspired and hopefully inspiring viewers, I know it sounds a bit silly, doesn’t it? A while afterwards I asked the group what I should do with the name, they pretty much said that it’s my property since I came up with it and I could use it for other purposes. It now serves as the name for the name of the current team.

Equipment is currently being sorted out, we’ll only be able to do PC titles at first, but hopefully we’ll be able to do console titles as well.

So everything’s almost set up, we just need to get everything together whenever the team and myself have the time, then we’ll launch the channels on the separate sites. Still not going to tell you guys what games are going to get scrutinised either until the first upload.
