So maybe you don't have the kind of name recall as
Leeroy Jenkins, and maybe you don't have the street cred of
GotFrag TV's Kintt or the British accent of
ESL's Joe and Zalmah -- but if you think you can commentate with the best of them, Blizzard's got the right contest for you. Blizzard is looking for the best people to do play-by-plays on
Arena matches (dubbed Shoutcasting), so if you think you've got the chops, head over to the contest page and see what it's all about.
If you think you're the
Dick Vitale of eSports (that's an interesting thought), go ahead and download the stock Arena tournament video on the contest page and dub over the best color commentary you can muster. The best entry will win a Dell Ultrasharp 3007WFP-HC Monitor as well as the code for a cool
BlizzCon 2008 Polar Bear mount. Runners up will receive BlizzCon shirts and the mount. Contest ends on April 17, so get a-shoutin', just be sure to
read the rules first.

Shoutcast doesn't mean what Blizz thinks it means. I thought this was about streaming Arena matches online. Weird.

Shoutcast is streaming audio. Hence the "Shout" (voice/audio) and the "cast" (stream).

"maybe you don't have the street cred of GotFrag TV's Kintt or the British accent of ESL's Joe and Zalmah"
Got what? Knit what? Joe Zalmah? Never heard of any of these people. Srs Bznss indeed!
I thought street cred had to do with shooting people in the face, prison bids, tattooed teardrops, and having a reputation for being "'Bout it!" and "Handalin' dat bidness!". I must be getting old.
"So you just gonna play videogames? Is that what's hot in the streets?"

So you're going to talk shit about the guy and his site and not even find out if it's legit or not? What an asshole...
