    We should have our own Trials Show...

    So, i read this comment from a member of the community in another thread:

    And it got me thinking...

    You know what, i agree with that, with all the people making Trials videos on Youtube, and streaming on Twitch (Who mostly just do it for page views and add money...)...

    We, the Trials Community, should at least have one show, with the real Trials Fans.

    Because, to tell you the truth, i know a lot of Youtubers have the TF (True Fan) award, but eveybody knows that, only a handful of those are actual Trials Fans...

    So...

    My idea is: First, i want you guys to just brainstorm, and trow anything you got at me, for what kind show you'd like to see, and how it should be done, and whatever else you want to add.

    We could do a show about Custom Tracks, about Individual Creators, or about, just choosing a bunch of random tracks and pressing the red button, i don't know, whatever you can think off, at this point, it doesn't matter.

    Right now, i just want to know who's up for contributing to make...

    The Trials Community Show!!!

    I remember FatShady started a series called 'Today in Track Central' where he basically just showcased a few tracks that were released on the day of recording, it was an entertaining watch, he only uploaded a few episodes though.

    Maybe you could start a weekly show that showcases the best tracks from the past week. Maybe one track from each difficulty. There could also be other features in the video such as: Ninja run of the week, Track creator of the week, Speedrun of the week, and whatever else you can think of

    I like the idea of Ninja run of the week and speedrun of the week.

    I think it would be cool if there was always a different guest co host who could show a replay of their choosing on whatever track.

    +1... Much like the IGN top plays you see across halo, cod, etc. Ive always enjoyed watching gaming at its finest. There could also be top save of the week. Alot of epic saves that need some love too.

    The problem with this is, we only get 1-2 really good tracks a week, and an handful of decent ones at best. This would have been awesome 6 months ago but quality in TC is really a dying breed. Im having an hard time finding more customs to keep me playing and im losing motivation just to play overall.

    There is one thing that could save TC....another DLC pack- consisting of all HD tracks. This would bring back the creators, riders and rejuvenate the game altogether. God knows we could use this but unfortunately i dont see this happening outside the PC port. New Evo tracks- meh...maybe liven up the game but a month at most. If RL really wants to milk this game HD tracks is the way to go but i guess they want to keep it as the main selling point of Gold Edition.

    I really like this idea, could get some goodies to throw along with other creators out there too.

    Not only that but I think alot more players would be inclined to get back into action also.

    well,im up for it big time..like ive said, ive got a folder full of content that ive used, some that i havnt..it could get used in my blogg etc...we could even go as far as to sorting out some sort of 3 monthly programme as to whats happening, which days, and also to whos taking part..1 month at a time will be enough cos of real life events etc...if we planned to far ahead, it wouldnt work...
    we could also have RL guset races..like i did for RLPicks against cannibal shogun.. we could invite them to spend 30 mins,for example, to race against a pre-planned list of say 8 people..they would get a chance to jump in a party for 5 mins n have a bit of a crack.. i know probably cannibal n shifty would be up for it.. i know just what to say to get them invloved..lol

    Yeah I had to stop the today in track central series for a few reasons, my cap card stopped working and then I started doing some of the early prep work for the University of Trials. If I plan to keep that series running, I don't think I would contribute to anything else but good luck. I know Morf has been spreading the word for me so if anyone else wants to help get people watching that would be great.

    The issue with today in track central was that it wasn't edited at all so if I was going to do that again, it would take more time because i'd want to edit it much better. I now have much better audio and video equipment so maybe one day... ?

    Anyway, all the best if you guys do start something. All i will suggest is that you want to offer people something different, something unique that hasn't been done before. Avoid making another trials show and try to find something that hasn't been done before, or if it has, try doing it in a way that hasn't been done before. That isn't easy, but it will help you stand out.

    What gear are you after? Have you priced it up yet? Do you have a paypal account? Maybe I can help you after the GIT comp is done.
