Attention all Warmhammer players with a video camera

I am here as a recruitment effort for the new community (4 days old) Warhamburger.com. It is dedicated to warhammer/warmachine match replays, meaning games any particular member has recorded on video. Our aim is to bring war-gaming out of the basements and backyards and into a public arena. It's going to be a place where you can show off your play-skills and strategies, as well as your armies, in real time. Every member is of author status, meaning that as long as they have a video to post, then they can go ahead and author an article and submit it into the blog. We're pretty excited about the whole idea at Warhamburger and are eagerly looking forward the first uploads and following discourse within the community. Check it out, hopefully a few individuals may feel as excited about the potential of the site as I do. (yay)
So, that's it, I'm starting to sound like a salesman.....
Hope to see some players there,

interesting idea, hope it gets off the ground...though I for one don't think I'd really be interested in watching a replay of an entire match

I guess the OP means video batreps and that sort of thing?
Could be interesting if it takes off.

Yeah, video of any form really, as long as it is presents the sequence of events, it will be up to the community really. A recent member brought up the idea of animating a succession of photos as opposed to straight video. The clip I saw was good, about 15 minutes long, even with sound effects (of the non-blaring type).
At the moment we (well, mostly I) am listening to what people might want or like to watch in case we ever should add something to the replay upload guidelines to steer things in some general direction.
The trouble right now is that the site is too goddamn slow... (CURSES), feel like it can't even begin to get off the ground because of the $&*#%^& page-load lag.

Not to poopoo your idea, but I wouldn't really want to watch Random Guy A, Beat Random Guy B especially if it takes 2 hours to watch. I would rather play. This isn't really a spectator sport.

But best of luck to you, I hope I am proven wrong.

BTW< the video test upload for your site is seriously 2 geriatrics racing on rascals?
