Follow these instructions for submitting a new replay for use in casting;
Create a new thread in this board with the following title:
[Game Title] Brief Description of the video clip [Length of Video]
Begin the thread with the first post being a link to your video; it can be a Youtube link, or another form of video download. Youtube is the easiest to link and upload but not always the easiest to download.
An example of a good title:
[League of Legends] Normal Draft with premade 5's teams [32:30]
or...
[StarCraft 2] Protoss v. Zerg Gold Ranked 1v1 [24:05]
What should my video contain?
For the best casting material, casters are looking for pure, in-game audio only; there's no point in uploading your own commentary that someone wants to commentate over anyway. For games like League of Legends, a replay or other spectate mode would be best; include your own replays if you wish. If you only have first person view, like a game you recorded yourself playing but can't get a replay, that's fine as well. (trust me, it's difficult. LoLReplay hates my computer too.)
For other games, try and keep to the spectate format; of course, since not all games include such a feature, and we want to include all games here, just make sure it's a clean, usable recording with only in-game audio. If the game's spectate mode contains stats, make them visible and organized if possible. This point is mainly for League of Legends... if you're recording a spectate, organize the stat screen to put people in their correct positions (top, jungle, mid, adc, support).
