    We're thinking of putting together a weekly thing where we get together in a channel and watch a show/movie together at the same time. There's probably a program that lets us all watch something synced up, (we may have to ask someone with good internet to just stream it live) I'll ask around. But so far the idea was that we'd all start at the same time and do live feedback like we're all in someone's living room.

    So far it's been agreed upon that we would watch some 1-2 season shows or movies, we would put together a vote and go through them for a while. I would think that maybe going through 4-6 episodes or a movie or two depending on interest will be best. Without commercials every episode runs about 22 minutes which we can jam 3 episodes in about an hour. This will give us a good pace through short seasons. Long running shows, while are popular, won't hold our interest for the time it will take.

    Since it will take some time to run through all of these the votes would have to be small, run until the next show is up. Also votes for non interest should be accounted for, as in, if we're watching something that a large amount of people have no interest in either something should be in place. Either telling them to deal with it and come back next time or shelve it and let the people who want to watch it watch it on their own time together.

    What we need:
    Something to stream with (I can ask around, see if we can't get access to a media stream somewhere.)
    A night to agree upon, especially with our busy PS2 schedule.

    If you're interested a +1 in this thread would be awesome.
    Another thing to worry about is large amounts of people all talking at once would ruin the experience for some people so some basic etiquette and guidelines may need to be enacted. Please discuss this as well.

    Ah yes, I remember this. I originally thought that it was what I was looking for, unfortunately it just works with youtube and such. If I can find the full episodes in english on vivio or youtube we can give it a shot. But i'm not holding my breath.

    Now to do some research in streaming methods, my upload is awful. We'll need some brave volunteers to do this, we already have enough people to go through with the whole idea. I'll poke someone sometime and see if streaming works well enough for me.

    Also if people need help getting the anime that wins the vote I am fully ready and willing to help you get them. I have my ways. I'm an internet wizard.
