RTX Event + New Topics?
3 years ago
The Hitchhiker's Guide to GamingIf you don't remember, we were awarded the RTSQ Presents $100 grant for our RTX event, which we decided would be Blazer tag. It's set for Sunday July 6th at 7:00 p.m. I ask that you bring cash for anything the $100 doesn't cover (including food and drink or extra games of Blazer tag). You need to RSVP for the event before the end of June here so I can have a rough head count.
This will also be when I hand out the Hitchhiker's Guide giveaway prizes. If you're unable to attend RTX, I'll get it to you some other way!
I'm also thinking that it might be time to get the next topic list out. Submit topic ideas before the end of the week so I've got something to give y'all! -
Touching Base: Please Help!
3 years ago
The Hitchhiker's Guide to GamingHey guys!
So here's the thing: A combination of lack of submissions, lack of views, and needing to set up the CBN collaborative channel had me put this project on hold for a bit. I did notice that the first episode or two in a set got the most views, and then it waned from there. I--and you guys--put a helluva lot of work into this, and I want to make sure that it's worth it for everyone. I want to release more topics and get to releasing episodes again, but first I need your help! If you could please answer the following questions, it'll help me determine what steps to take moving forward.
1. Are you interested in submitting clips for this set?
2. Do you want to watch more episodes?
3. Do you have any suggestions to bring in more contributors/viewers?
4. Do you have any topic suggestions? Stick 'em here. Generally speaking I'm going to want to avoid topics that have either a) been used in HGG before, or b) are used in CBN's "Community Talks."
If you have anything else you want to add, please feel more than free! -
Formal Request for Your Submissions!
3 years ago
The Hitchhiker's Guide to GamingSo I've had some questions lately about when the newest topics for this group will be coming out. Hopefully that will be soon, but for the time being I am looking for some help getting Community Based Network off the ground, and I don't think there's anyone better around to ask than you all!
We have all sorts of recordings that we'll need (achievements, how to videos, and vlog-style, at the very least!) For full information on what we'll need in the coming weeks, please check this out ASAP!
Just for good measure, I'll tag y'all who have contributed before (to Hitchhiker's Guide and the special video projects that were promoted on this group) and hope that you might be interested in one or more of these topics from CBN!
@TDBTyler @cove @JoshHaxell @ScottLamothe @Cory0the0gr8 @MetaSponge @superashley @AweSamantha @bigfish62 @Narra @OnlineNine @lexicram @jean110 @TheFringe @ToothlesGame @Raf @ScotAndProud @Shimuff @caveman1509 @RAGEgirl @scottster246 @NealMcNeal @Ginman @Hussein @kaosblack21 @LillyBugLove
Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you guys have any questions at all, and thanks so much for reading! You guys really are the best.

Itching to Submit Clips?
3 years ago
The Hitchhiker's Guide to GamingPromotional post from Community Based Network written by @LoZelda:
Community Achievements!
Even if you're not an Achievement Hunter, you have to admit it's a little exciting when that little box pops up. Kind of makes you wish it happened more often huh? Well, good news! CBN is here to solve that problem for you!
Head over to the “Achievements You Wish Were Real†forum and describe what achievements you wish actually existed. They can be for games, real life, or anything in between! You don’t even have to come up with a fancy name or point value if you don’t want to, but you win internet bonus points if you do. Every week we will be assigning one of these Community Achievements (or some variation of it) for you to complete and record a video. Be as creative as you want with your clips! Involve as many or as few people as you want, be as elaborate or simple as you want, the only limit is that you have to actually complete the task.
We expect clips will be relatively short, but they should absolutely be no longer than 1 minute (longer submissions may be approved on a case by case basis; contact me ahead of time with your idea). Submitted clips will be compiled into a single video, so the rules about beginning /end slates for other video submissions will not apply. The rest of the rules will, however. For now, clips should be submitted to info@communitybasednetwork.com with the name of the achievement you are submitting in the subject line.
The due date for the first one is April 25th. The next challenge will be issued at the end of each video, with the due date being one week later. As an example for clarification: a video comes out April 25th, at the end of that video a Community Achievement will be assigned which is due May 2nd, and the video for that Community Achievement will be released on May 9th. Make sense?
Your first Community Achievement:
Well That Was Awkward – Answer the door for a delivery dressed in a way that would never be acceptable in public (in your underwear, a onesie, etc) (20G)
If you have any questions, please feel free to leave them in a comment here or send them off to the group email address. We can’t wait to see what you guys come up with! -

Episode 15 & CBN Update!
3 years ago
The Hitchhiker's Guide to Gaming
Episode 15 (Cosplay) will be out this week, Tuesday if I can swing it. If you can get me a clip of you speaking on the topic (whether it's general or talking about cosplays you've done or whatever) by tomorrow at 8:00 p.m. CST, I'll include it. Alternatively, feel free to send me pictures of you cosplaying if you don't have time to record a clip.
Also, if you missed my post about Community Based Network, go ahead and check that out now. Our heads and regular showrunners include community members you might know from Hitchhiker's Guide, Ladies of RT, or RT Community Shorts, including @topham, @LoZelda, @SilverKM03, and @Kiwi, as well as myself.
But we also want to include YOU! We have our first two topics for vlog-style submissions on Community Talks that anyone can submit to!
Week #1: The plight of game composers in the greater game industry and player community and in the general music industry.
Due Wednesday, April 23rd
Week #2: Fandoms
Due Wednesday, April 30th
The group will have more details about where to send it and rules for submission and all that! -
For Any Interested!
