After inaugurating off live game coverage of a 40k GT last year, the NOVA is partnering with 11th Company and taking some lessons learned from the IC podcast's improvements to run full on live podcasting all weekend long at the NOVA.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-11th-company

It'll be live on Thursday evening starting around 4 or 6, all day Friday covering the Invitational, and all day Sat and Sun covering the Open GT proper. Although I can't say who his opponent is, randomization of the first round will have Tony Kopach against his random first round opponent on Table 1 for Friday's Invitational, starting at 8AM US EST. Table 1 will always be "under cam" ... and players will have lapel mics and pro mastering from the 11th Co Podcast.

We also have the capacity to "draw" on screenshots and live feed "Madden" style and will be using it liberally, to help viewers understand what's going on a little better.

TUne in, and spread the link!

Madden and 40k in the same statement...amazing!

Now if we could get Madden to do the commentary I think we could get this stuff on ESPN like the World Series of Poker...

Nice, can't wait to see some of the games.

I would think lapel mics might be a bad idea.

Ooh, the Invitational is going to be on live stream?? Guess I better get back to painting my models

I will be watching so I can see the 11th Company lay a beating on 40K Radio.

I can only hope I dont get my ass whooped while on live stream
Also...Whisky match someone? I might have time for a whisky match, granted I am only 20.

I think this is a great idea and I look forward to checking in on the various games of the weekend.

If I get miked up I will just be muttering the whole game about how cheesy my opponent's army is.

I love this idea! I hope it works out well in practice.

Good luck with the event! I am bummed I can't make it this year, but I am looking forward to seeing the results!

I'm pretty bummed out too. I was supposed to be in the invitational but finaces dictate no cross country trips for 40K this year :( I too will be watching the live brodcast. And give em hell for the west coast Blackmore (but I bet if you get a mic you'll be telling everyone its not about winning even though your mopping up )

Just make sure to be on a 5 second delay to avoid any wardrobe malfunctions. While I doubt we'll see any nipple, you might inadvertantly catch some gamer plumber butt during the later movement phases. Sounds like a cool idea other than that!

I am looking forward to seeing the live stream! Good luck to the Imperial Vox Cast!

Watching it now... I can't wait to be there soon!

Awesome stuff. Any worries about the Hurricane?

I'm deaming this weekend a hurrication

Will there be live feed of the hurricane outside?

Man, I was gonna be pantsless this whole tournament too....damn my bad luck on not being able to go.....

Watching now.

I reluctantly gave up going to the Nova Open for my 10-year high school reunion, held near the coast.

There's a hurricane coming that as of a few hours ago just rescheduled my reunion for September...

If this is karma, I must have done something wrong.

The feed was a good time tonight. Definitely a much better setup than last year; the camera over the table is a great improvement. The sound was largely good (and the guys adjusted when necessary thanks to viewer feedback), and the content fun.

It was also nice having you there to comment on the games in progress

Is there some place to see the pairings of the first round of the invitationnal?

First round of the Invitational was really good. Brad Nichols vs Tony Kopach.

So who won?

Brad Nichols won against Tonys Space Wolves. He is now on table 1 Round 2 vs Kurt Clauss
Brad is using Deathwing. Kurt is using Daemons.

Thanks for the update. Can't watch the feed at work.

I was really pulling for Tony. It is really amazing to watch Tony play.

Tony did really good in 1st round. It was a close match and he almost had it too. His deployment against deathwing really did mess him up a bit.

Dash beat Stelek in round #1. What's going on at table #1 now?
