A request for all the combatants: coordinate your team's skins. It is very difficult to see who is on what team when everyone is running around, but with team skins we Heralds can actually get some real quality footage

Heralds should have op powers so they can fly around invis. Also I think it would be cool if you put each team's players/classes in the videos as well.

We haven't got invis in the past, but that's a good idea so that we don't distract the participants or the other heralds. If Xanipher allows it.

Sure, that's easily done.

I'll see if its possible via permissions. I can probably make a custom guide group for video people. Unfortunately invis people will still be able to see each other, but no one else can.

Daamn, it would've been most convenient if the event was just a day before its scheduled date...
Could we possibly have an earlier starting time? Even an hour or two earlier?

I would prefer not an earlier starting time or any time adjustments. My sleep schedule is 9am-5pm CST time. I already will have to wake up 3 hours early for it. @Xanipher I remember there has been time adjustments before. Could that be avoided this time please? lol

I've found that 4pm EST / 3pm CST tends to work the best for our wide variety of timezones. We've had many successful turn outs for this time. I probably will continue to keep it at this time for the foreseeable future.
