.. is just an idea at the moment but might become a reality soon. Let me explain.
I know many people turn the sound off when they play so I thought it would be a great idea to have our own Elements internet radio.
Elements has 12 different elements, meaning that in order to fill the whole 24 hour period, each element gets airtime of 2 hours per day, maybe one hour at a time. For example Light Element could have 1am and 1pm, Gravity 2 am and 2pn, etc.
Each element would have own style of music. Although all music should be "semi-easy-listening", which means no death metal and other styles of music that some people hate.
Examples:
Fusion Jazz
Acoustic
Classical
Oldies
Um.. Black Metal?
Then maybe (a big maybe) we could have our own DJ's (players) who have a weekly one hour show (or something) where they discuss about strategies, updates, etc.
Mondays: Noob Hour (tips for new players)
Wednesdays: Derek's New Decks
Sundays: PvP Tournament Recap
etc.
Today I've been looking for a website that would offer this kind of service but so far I haven't found quite what I'm looking for. Loudcaster.com is pretty close but it's still on beta stage so we have to wait for a while (should be ready "early 2010).
Goal is to find a service that gives us a widget similar to this one:
Your browser does not support iframes.
.. which we can then embed next to the chat. This way you can lurk in chat and listen to Elements radio.
There might be a monthly fee involved depending on what service provider we pick, but no worries, you the community members wouldn't have to pay anything. It would be 100% free.
I know this sounds like a crazy plan but with today's technology it
can be done. At least I think it can, lol
If anyone has any experience in setting up an internet radio, send me a PM or post here.
Please post feedback and any ideas. Thanks.
