I found an older thread saying that to let the mods know you are streaming OGS would be to ask in a thread - I hope that is still how to do things.
I am currently streaming Go on Twitch occasionally, even though it is not my main content. I wouldn’t want to get users spammed if I don’t play Go, but I also read there might be a manual option to trigger the live notification, so I could specifically do that if I’m streaming Go.
I am by no means a professional player though (8kyu at the moment), but I’d love to help promote Go to a wider audience, as small as it may be, and make people interested in the game!
You have been given announcer privileges. You can create announcements in the Announcement Center. Set the announcement for the rough length you expect to stream for, and if you need to leave early for any reason please remember to come back and delete the announcement to mininise people clicking links for ended streams. Thanks
Would you mind giving privileges to MidnightTheBlue as well? I keep announcing for him when I see he is live, but it’s probably time he has access and I (or you) can let him know he has it and how to use it.
One announcement per event or stream, please use multiple content lines for multiple links, and use the edit feature to update them as needed.
but it’s unclear how to put multiple links since there is only one line for the link(s).
Suppose there is one event with stream on Twitch + demo board(s) on OGS. How are we supposed to create the announcement?
Sorry I asked the wrong question. This morning, someone wanted to announce demo+stream associated to the same event, and did that (clicked on + add content and entered both links) but only the link to the demo board appeared on the popup. Making a separate announcement for the stream didn’t help either.
Same problem this morning, putting the link to the game + link to the associated stream on two different lines didn’t work, and making two separate announcements from the same account didn’t work either, so two different accounts had to be used as a workaround.
