Update 4/1/17:

Sorry for the wait. The channel has been created, but there's still a lot of work to do. You can access the channel via
taima.tv/r/tsc The password for now is Coli

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Here's a rough to-do list:
Add content for the channel
Find someone who would be interested in streaming shows/PPVs
Add moderators for the chat
Get the CSS/HTML stuff set up
Everything's very bare-bones right now, but I want to hopefully have a Wrestlemania 33 Viewing Party using the channel.

With all these Viewing Party threads I think it may be a good time to put this idea out there for consideration.
Offical description of Taima.TV
TaimaTV synchronizes media across the web

Create your channel and share music, videos, and more, synchronized with your audience

Turn your channel into a automated TV station, 24/7 radio station, or a simple hangout

YouTube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, Dailymotion, TwitchTV, Livestream, Ustream, Imgur, and more

Basically, Taima.TV is a website that allows people to watch automatically synchronized media and chat with one another. A lot of media sources can be embedded, including Youtube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Twitch, Live streams, etc.

From the little I know, the CSS is pretty customizable and we can port over emotes from here to use in the chatroom.

I think that having a channel that is by and for TSC members would be a good idea. For one, Viewing Parties would be much more easier to conduct since the PPV would be synchronized with all the chatters.
Even during Raw/SD/PPVs, somebody on here can livestream (or borrow another channel's stream :mjpls:) for the users on here who aren't able to watch it legally or who just want to watch with fellow Coli members. A lot of times, the quality of streams on the site are much better/safer than other pro-wrestling livestream sites.

Here's an example of what a Taima Channel usually looks like

If ya'll are down for this, we could probably set up a channel within the next few days/weeks. We would probably need someone for the CSS, a couple moderators, and someone who can livestream the shows so we don't have to mooch off the other channels.

Feel free to voice your questions/comments/criticism in this thread.

sounds :roodeglorious:

if we could find a way to keep it to just members (private group) on here limiting lurkers who would lag the videos/streams, that would be great as well
I've used this before for another forum. You can make it not appear on the front page but unless they updated it, if you link it people will be able to get on. Unless you message the link to everyone or link it in a non-lurker section like JBO, people will be able to get on it. It's a good site though you guys should use it for that group watch thing you do, rather than just trying to play the video at the same time. And just use the chat feature. But for their main channels, they usually have hundreds of people there for ppv's and it's usually fine.

this is my biggest problem with viewing parties on the network

unless we're watching what the network is currently streaming, we're all out of sync, by minutes at a time

this is a great idea.
