(Well, I have a little time, but I'm still not level seventy in World of Warcraft yet). I think such a show could be produced for a lot cheaper than Comedy Central did, though maybe not as slickly. Best I can manage for now would be to show up with a camera and post stuff to YouTube, but that does not a business model make. Now a dedicated site with forums, video and photo uploads, articles about the sport and, of course, multi-camera shoots of real battles... Sadly, I will probably be pissing off any remaining venture capitalists very shortly. Well, the only probably with me doing it is a) I have no time and b) I have no money.

Thanks for volunteering, Jackson! ;) Actually, a guy named Bob Pitzer tried this a while back wit the BotBash Network. it was kinda before it's time and he was doing it all on his own, but now that tech has advanced, this could happen again, maybe. http://www.youtube.com/botbash But seriously, if you want to shove a thing up on a site and do stuff, go for it. We can discuss whatever else at a later date. Cool! Thanks for volunteering, Jackson! ;)

While TV exposure is certainly great for the sport, I bet an online arena combat show would do pretty darn well -- I'd watch!
