Alright, so we all know Colony is one of the largest multiplayer strategy flash games out there. We also know that commentating multiplayer strategy games is awesome ^_^ What I'm proposing is that people sign up for a time to play 1v1 matches, and I can join as a 3rd player. I wouldn't do anything, but I would be recording the match with commentary to upload to Youtube - assuming it works out alright.

Basically, how this will work:

-You post here saying you're available to play
-Wait for another person to play against (if you have any specific people in mind, that would work, too)
-Post your Colony usernames. We will be using Jetzul server on AG
- I will create the game with "Name vs Name" as the title
-Specify what type of game you want, too; default will be Normal
-I won't be doing anything, but I'll observe and record the match while recording sound.

This could be fun ^_^

Posting format:

Times available:


I will only be recording matches on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Let's go!

The first day of recording was a pretty big success ^_^ I'll upload them to my youtube:

http://www.youtube.com/Zeke50100

I'll also post links on this thread when they are finished uploading. Alternatively, you can just check my channel to see if they're up (remember that subscribing will make it easier ^_^)

Also, if they're really crappy quality, then it's probably still processing. I had to compress the video sizes from 300+ MB (nearly 700 for the second one) to ~40 MB each so that they wouldn't take half a day to finish uploading, so the quality will have dropped. It's still understandable, though!

Sorry for the triple post, but the Commentaries are uploaded!

Strongside vs Caravaggio (Game 1)
Strongside vs Caravaggio (Game 2)
Strong/Zeke vs Trig/Cara 2v2

I'll put them in a playlist so that you guys can check them out quicker. Make sure to subscribe to find out ASAP when I upload a commentary

that's pretty sweet man, you should also put what builds they used, might come helpful!

It's pretty difficult to be able to determine a person's build when you're observing it ^_^

I also don't write the description immediately after recording a game, so it's not exactly fresh in my mind when I do upload it (other than knowing that it was epic )

Plus, I don't know if they want people to know their builds ^_^ I might add some annotations or something for their builds sometimes, though.

Anyway, I've put the videos in a playlist labeled "Colony Commentaries." I'll put all my commentaries in their, and it's the very first playlist that pops up on my channel, so it'll be easy to see.

Alright, so I recently found out that I actually WILL have time to do some games this week on Saturday (May 29)

I'm just letting you guys know, because signing up before hand is much better than just randomly showing up ^_^

I actually have no idea o.0

Right now, it's 3:10 PM Central as of this post.

Anyways, I have time right now, if you'd like to find random opponents to play (in case nobody else posts)

You can go onto Jetzul, if you want. I can bring some people over from Glastondale.

Alright, so I can do some games right now. However, we should do it on Glastondale or Beatrix. I only just found out yesterday that Jetzul = LAAAAG, especially if you're recording. Therefore, the videos from yesterday will only be uploaded if you guys really want it to (triggerhappy and quicksmasher), because the commentary is out of sync from the video (and at varying amounts, too)

However, if we stick to Glastondale or Beatrix, it should be fine.

I really recommend you guys to watch them. A ton of back and forth action, and it keeps you on the edge of your seat :P
