    -Wanna make your own exhibition for this week's R.A.W.?
    Make your voice known in the comments!!



    _____________________________________
    _____________________________________




    Are you interested in playing a long set on stream with commentary? ANYONE is invited, skill level is NOT a factor, and new players are encouraged to join in!

    Make a post and let us know you want to join!


    We want more people to commentate! ANYONE is invited to commentate, whether you are a vet or a new player, or if you wanna commentate or just laugh and joke with the players! During or before the sets begin, use Skype and send a message or friend request to 'blackstar2478' to join in on the call! Limited space in the XBL room will also be made available for those who want to use XBL Chat!


    How it works is like this:

    Reply on this thread with your gamertag, the date you (and your opponent, if applicable) are available, location you play from, and what you would like to do, and you will be placed on a list of 'interested players' on the opening post (this post).

    For example:
    or like this
    NOTE: If you have an opponent in mind, make sure that THEY REPLY IN THE THREAD TOO, OR THE REQUEST WON'T COUNT.

    Also, NOTE: FT10's take FOREVER, so only especially hype matches get to do those.


    IF YOU WANT A PRE-RAW INTERVIEW DONE, IT IS DONE BY REQUEST ONLY FROM NOW ON.
    So, in other words, if you want an interview, just ask and I'll do it. If you're a spectator, and IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOMEONE GET INTERVIEWED, just ask me as well, and i'll try and arrange one with them if they want.


    If there is a disconnection (DC) during a RAW set, neither player will win the match where the DC occurs (unless BLACKSTAR or designated person says otherwise).

    Instead, both players will play the next match by first allowing each player to willingly give up the same number of rounds they had lost in the previous DC'd match, before playing out the rest of the match.

    3 UNINTENTIONAL DC's are allowed in a RAW set. Any further DC's will result in the immediate end of the RAW set and a DRAW(can be overruled, if both participating players express that they wish to continue).

    ANY 1 DC DEEMED INTENTIONAL by BLACKSTAR or designated person will result in the IMMEDIATE disqualification and loss of the entire RAW set for the offending player. A subsequent BAN from participation in future RAW events may also occur.


    Sure, why not. Just see if your opponent is cool with it, and both of you guys let me know that that is what you want to do.


    Short answer: NO.

    Long answer: Unless you have a good reason where its ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE to do RAW on a Sunday, then NO. Even if you do, note that we will work with you, but nothing will be guaranteed. I have my own life to live, after all. That being said, if you want to have a RAW match, but can't do Sundays, let us know here on the RAW thread, and we will work with you.

      Nah. You won't be commentating. Probably not next RAW either.

      I think he meant that he wants to discuss match analysis and such after his game and of his his opponent like you always do with people on Raw.

      Why dont you want me commentating anymore? You said everyone was welcome to do so? If you have something against me then let me known because I dont know why you would have something against me in the first place? You did not even put up my match on raw 46 line up of matches.

      Commentating for XBL matches when you don't have XBL makes no sense. You can't keep up with the other commentators. Besides, you're a boring commentator any way. No insight to the matches, just: "Oh he's attacking." Duh, everyone watching the stream can see that.

      :rolleyes: Cobra Commander/Snake Boss commentator saying "Cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Attackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!"

      Everyone IS welcome to commentate. That doesn't mean that everyone is welcome to commentate EVERY single RAW, like you do. If you're are going to try and go that far, you should at least try and step your commentary game up

      Tbh, your commentary is pretty bad recently. I don't say that to be mean, but in all honesty, you don't really add much to commentary to recent RAWs.

      My personal goal is to teach viewers (newer players of course) about the game, when I commentate. Honestly, that's pretty much the entire point of the stream, actually, to get new people interested in VF. Even when I don't know the character (most, I don't very well), I at least try to let the audience know what the general mindset is to fight them. Every guest commentator usually adds to that with their own personal knowledge of the game. Even when they don't, they usually add entertainment value, which is essential for keeping viewers interested past 5 min or so.

      Your commentary of late has been kind of grating. I don't usually mind having you commentate, but you literally commentate every week. And on top of that, you add stuff like "Yeah, I think that guy should hit the other guy more" recently when you commentate, which means nothing. I've literally had several (no joke) people message or talk to me personally and ask to take you off of RAW commentary. I've never heard that for any other commentator before, ever. If even the audience is begging me outside of the actual stream time to kick you off, then its a real issue.

      Like i said, I don't necessarily have a problem with you on commentary. I think you're a cool dude, and you do bring hype to the stream, just by your presence (just mentioning SNAKE BOSS automatically gets NAVFers talking). But just like when you needed to take a break from RAW matches, you need to take a break from RAW commentary.


      EDIT: Oh yeah, and like @Jacko said, you won't be commentating XBL matches w/out XBL, ever. I could see STL_Tm doing it, because he's really good at commentary. But unless you're on that commentary level or you have really good character knowledge, its PSN only for you.

      On top of that, he's unbanned so he can focus on playing instead of being a try -hard for more exposure. To lessen his RAW appearances, I say it has to be an opponent willing to fight him and has to post on here their typed out agreement. Snake Boss can't just choose his opponent or say "hey this guy wants to fight me"

      He's more than welcome to issue challenges, but that doesn't mean everyone has to accept.

      Also, allow me to educate you. Saying "better THEN you", is basically implying that I would be a better commentator. "Better THAN you" is what you're looking for, my Russian Bob the Builder friend. And stop deluding yourself, you are not a better commentator than me and I'm not even that good myself LOL.

      Thank you for the explanation, I did not know that some people had an issue with my commentary. I did not really commentate the last few times about the matches because it was a delayed stream and when I do commentate I try to commentate a little different rather then saying he punished with a pk after negative 15 on block. I think everyone that is watching already knows that stuff for the most part. That is why I try to mix it up. Sorry if it was not to interesting because that was not my intention at all. Also I get on commentary to support this great game and the stream. I do it with passion. I wont be able to commentate as much anyways because I am more busy but once in a while I can do it especially for psn if you are willing to have me on.
