    Original idea provided by @Stl_Tim :

    Good to point out faults in our scene, but I also think that even if you remotely play, love, or talk more than an hour about vf than search for a solution.

    Having said that, here is what I propose as a educational experience to improve vf knowledge for all as a whole.

    1.Host a weekly show where you have one star player guest who is efficient in their character.
    This person acts as the dojo master and follows a format that can be Easily understood by all.

    2.Then there is the host and maybe one other personality to add a lighthearted appeal to bounce off one another.

    3. Next is everyone else who is the students who can follow along at home in dojo mode. The format will cover a solid and decent amount of information that can be applied to set a standard.

    4. Time could be utilized effectively until the end and leave that for q&a.

    Hardest part is getting the show to stay focused w/o going to deep off the course.

    If that would work we could set up some extra shows based on core fundamentals.

    Whatcha think??

    Possible people to beta test this with could be:

    Host-Blitzball
    Kagemaru-Jami San
    Co host-Hayato, Blackstar, or Shinybrentford if he is alive?!

    Anyone interested please pm or contact blitz.

    I have posted a poll for the potential Kage players requested that would be a great fit to lead these sessions. Please take the time to vote for your top pick. The choices for this poll are @Ytpme_Secaps , @Rodnutz , @JCnextinc , @cobratron , @jimi Claymore , and @Myke . if you have any other Kage players that you can think of, please post them in this thread as well and I will count them as a vote. If anyone has any questions or any kind of feedback, please share. Thank you very much!

    Im down for whatever form it takes, VF Live used to run a few "training" rooms, and most of that group were guardingThrowEscaping (GTE) after a couple sessions. It was incredibly rewarding. Similarly, Shiny,Tim,Shang,Flash,Jacko, all have added imeasurably to my play by pointing out flaws and holes in my game, i.e. (trash talking). It can sting, but it is good medicine. Id love a room with all that stuff.

    Myke is more qualified, but I dunno if schedule/time zones would be an issue.

    @G0d3L has done a lot of research for this character. I would like to nominate him too.

    As much as I'd love to participate in this, I'm geographically too far away to do anything in real time with you folks in North America or Europe.

    But, I would like to add that if you want these "Character Overviews" to be effective, I suggest you complete step 1 before you go any further, and in particular, work together to define the "format that can be easily understood by all".

    You want to avoid someone "umming" and "aahhing" while they try to think of the next thing to demonstrate, otherwise you'll lose your audience.

    Once you have the template defined, you could have a number of character specialists contribute their input in, say, a thread. Once the template is filled, then you can go away and have one of the specialists demonstrate all the concepts on stream, with an audience, fielding Q&A, etc. And for posterity, the content from the thread could be used to create a wiki page for that character.

    Note: This was always (and still is!) the original intent behind having Content Managers for specific characters. One person facilitating and soliciting input into creating helpful content on the site (character threads, wiki pages, etc). This is now an extension of that taking it to video.

    I didn't retire, I decided to not play anymore online till I'll have a fiber connection.
    If everything is going as planned it will be quite soon.

    I'm still hoping for a PC port of FS announced as a bouns this year at TGS

    Jami has a good solid Kage. He's the one who taught me LTE and ECD.

    I feel like Jami would be the most available in the list.

    @Myke won, but he did speak already of his potential lack of availability because of the distance. Also want to keep @Ytpme_Secaps in mind because he is a little easier to get to. I honestly feel like everyone on this list can fit the bill. Please reach out to myself or @Stl_Tim about your availability. Thank you!
