A couple of days ago I announced my plans for starting a YouTube channel this summer in the hopes to:
a) Record gameplays from Halo 3 and Reach and upload them to serve as a Grifball archive of sorts. b) Later on start rolling out commentaries and highlights, which would hopefully be monetized, in the effort to make money via ad revenue for use in the AGLA.
Well, with the outstanding community support I've received so far, we've actually already rolled out several videos, so the timeframe has definitely changed, but the purpose of the channel remains the same.
So, you ask, "how do I get one of my leet gameplays on the channel?" Well, the process is pretty simple actually. Just click the link below to be brought to a short form you can fill out.
*Note: If you have multiple films in your file share you wish to submit, just put your file share link in the "Bungie.net Film Link" box.
Our only requirement is you do not submit a game from Grifball Matchmaking (in either Halo 3 or Reach). Part of the purpose of the channel is to highlight league play, to give new players a glimpse of what competitive Grifball is like. Other than that, you can submit whatever you like.
There's no need to cherry pick your games either. Again, the initial idea for this channel was to have a kind of video archive of all the old and current seasons that people could watch and enjoy. Did you go negative in the game? Lose? Choke a few times? Are you TheOneHawk? Doesn't matter. If you have any interest in having a film put up on YouTube, submit it, and we'll upload it as soon as possible.
We'll continuously post updates on the films we're planning to upload in this thread, so keep a lookout if you've submitted a film.
*Information on highlights and commentaries will come at a later date. For the time being we'll just be doing straight gameplays.*
Also, if you enjoy a video, be sure to rate, favorite, and comment as much as possible. It really helps the channel grow. Thanks in advance!.

Are you going to upload games in multiple parts since there is a time limit on YouTube videos (10 or 15 minutes can't remember)? A lot of the better games exceed this....
Personally, I think you should change some of the video titles and descriptions. I had to use my personal knowledge to know who the teams in the first game were. I think having both team names, which season, and which game in the series it was in the title instead of "champ game #2 part 1" would be better for people watching that didn't already have knowledge of the teams.
..Did you look at any of the other videos? Gotenks just names them a generic title when he uploads so I know what the game was. I just got back from work so I'll be editing the titles and adding in the tags and description. All the other videos have exactly what you mentioned.
Speaking of the recent video, looks like Gotenks uploaded the regular season game from TRich's POV again instead of the game 2 championship game from Turban's, so I'll have to take it down anyway.
Anyone with a capture card and an interest in helping feel free to message me. We have a lot of films we need to get uploaded and only a limited number of recorders.
Hey sorry i havent uploaded anything in awhile, ive been bust ill try to camPthat 30 minute long vid tonight. Should be up tomorrow, well maybe/hopefully
Are we allowed to submit bum rush games? I have a film with some well known players in it of me going +80 and we still lost. After reviewing the film I also have come to the conclusion that Scet Shins I phone host was ridiculous in Halo 3. He got like a full court sword lunge on NKot.
Dude the stuff Scet Shin was doing didn't even make sense. I want you to watch the film from his point of view without laughing. It's just not possible he was teleporting everywhere.
Going to submit that Rush game and other stuff tonight.....I wanted to submit the Grifindor vs. Thank Us Later game but Twizzter was going hard and made it last an hour.
Submit whatever you want. No guarantee when it will get done though since apparently nobody wants to do this anymore but me =(. I used B.net to render Taco's game, downloaded the file, and uploaded it to Youtube. So unless people decide to start helping again it's going to be a waiting game until I get my new computer.
