    I'm very happy with the response guys :D

    We've certainly got enough people interested so the first step is to decide on the individual lessons we want to cover.


    Also, as czubai says I think it would be best if we limit responsibility for the channel to keep things simple.

    With at least 4 people able to record and add in voiceovers I think it would be great to have (This lesson brought to you by X and the team) with X being the person recording that lesson, we'd take in turns :D.

    As I said to Shadlington over IRC. I can always host some server. You could also use teamspeak to communicate between yourselves.

    Yeah. We do need to plan what we're going to record though.

    Suggestions are welcome!

    So, I have a shitty microphone, which would still work, but picks up lots of noise... (in other words, I could do voice, but It's certainly not going to be good). Second, I can't film or host... BUT. BUT. I want to help if it'd at all be possible to act as an enemy or to demonstrate things.

    It's fine if you think I couldn't participate... I just really want to. D:

    I can record also but it gives me terrible crippling lag to do so.
