I have an idea… SHOW UP!
I kinda have an idea to do here in PokerVibez. I guess you’d like it, but I will need your colaboration. It’s a lot of work but I think it will be worth for all.
My idea is to create a group for every season of our favourite poker shows and upload every single episode so we can comment hands, have fun about how bad pros play, about how hilarious they are, etc.
I had this idea after creating the group of the recent “Face The Ace” show. I’m uploading the episodes as they are on Youtube.
I don’t love the show, to be honest, and thought how good could be that to be done with other more interesting shows, like Poker After Dark.
We can give a try to this show. We would need a person for every person to create the group for every single season. Then every day we could upload an episode to the group. I think PAD seasons are almost complete on Youtube (at least the last ones). We could post on the group the different episodes and line-ups (like “Episodes 37-41 Hellmuth Bash Cash Game”, for example) so people could have the whole show and the possibility to check what the most interesting episodes are, without needing to check Wikipedia and Youtube.
Does anyone join the task? Post a message on this blog if you like the idea or just send me a private message, ok?
Have fun folks.
PkVz Tutorial Part 4 – Groups
Groups are a very important part of any kind of social networks. I suppose this is due to many reasons. If the main purpose of one is to share things, groups are a very good way of doing so.
There are as much kind of groups as you could imagine, from silly things (like one I joined sometime of people who cannot stop using ‘lol’) to fan sites. There are, of course, specific poker groups, some of them with a lot of interest. I’ve created a Hold’em Manager group, for example. I’d like to post every new version link and open discussions about average stats and other freak things. I mean… there lots of things to do within groups, so even in poker is an useful tool.
Let’s describe how to create one, ok? Click on the Group tab (this step is pretty intuitive). There you’ll see the groups recently joined by your friends, groups that have been unptaded recently and finally your groups. You can search for any group through the search bar, and add some filters if you want. To create one go to the Create New Group button.
I think there is nothing interesting to say about the Group info editor. Well, yes. There aren’t much networks at the moment, so it’ll be great if you could create the one you really thought your group belongs to. And another thing: this steps will be the same that you’ll find whenever you’ll want to edit your group, so this is the place to write every recent new (this is the place where I post HM’s new versions).
The step 2 is about uploading the main picture of the group. It is important to say that here you’ll be able to edit the access, and wall options.
Finally you can invite all of your friends (and I definitly suggest you to do that).
Inside groups you can upload more photos and videos. This is specially interesting if you’d like to share some of your recorded hands, for example. Like ‘This is my fan site. This is how good I play’ or something lol. An user created recently a High Stakes Poker group, I suggest you to go there and post your favourite hands of the show. I think everybody loves to comment those hands (check out the latest durrrr’s bluff against Greenstein and Eastgate, so sick).
So this is what I have to say about groups. If I forgot something important comment it.
See ya!
