Hi! Question for all, I guess?

Why? What do you feel that this channel will bring to Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and gamers on these platforms? Do you feel like one platform will be more successful over the others in this aspect?

What are the best perks of the job?

Also, watch out for the Picts!

When you're making a network that aims to apply a really awesome level of quality to the things that we genuinely love most, there's a ripple effect that I think can be extremely healthy and exciting for a growing industry like gaming. A good example is a show I make for Magic the Gathering called Game Knights. My cohost is a really talented trailer editor (Scott Pilgrim, Star Wars TFA) and wanted to make something really high quality in a space that hadn't had it before. As a result, we now watch as so many other channels are putting out higher and higher quality content, even copycats of what we're doing, and to me, it's all groovy. This is a rising tide that floats all ships, and if leading by example is going to result in tons more free and amazing content, I'm all for it.

Thank you, Jimmy!

Jumping off of this point, is there a risk VENN might have missed the boat on this? (I don't come at this with ill-intent). We've seen so many content creators on YouTube and Twitch with high production quality - Good Mythical Morning, CohhCarnage to be examples. There's many others. Do you think something gaming-focused can compete when Twitter, a Youtube Channel, or a Twitch streamer can have more reach because they have a pre-existing audience? Is there space for something more broadly gaming focused that they can't get off a tweet in bed?
