All we have are the embers

Hey everyone. Our 100-minute Video Campfire® has ended. I'd say it was a success.

We had approximately 500 unique viewers. We averaged 83 viewers at any given moment. I was aiming for 40 viewers total, so I'd say that qualifies as a success.

What we need to do now is make suggestions on how to improve it.

Here are some things we discussed in the Campfire. Add more in the comments section and I'll post 'em here.

*Stop the refresh on the main blog because it messes up the stream.
*Images/video/links can't be posted in the chat.
*(Some) questions gathered before the VC begins.
*"Tape" the segment for later playback (**I have this one solved already.**)

IN OTHER NEWS: Here's what the Outback Bowl had to say via Twitter -- ``ESPN announced that the Outback Bowl overtime thriller with the Wildcats and Tigers posted a 4.06 national television rating. This is a 32% increase from last year's game. Thanks for watching this instant classic!"

Scott Chocolate said...: I liked what I saw when I should have been working. I guess I made it optional for most of the chat.; 4:17 PM
Jet said...: I was not able to post to the chat ... even after I registered with UStream. I guess I have a weak UStream.; 4:18 PM
Scott Chocolate said...: There's probably a prescription available for that, Jet. You could even invent one..."Jetstream".; 4:19 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: from the Outback Bowl Facebook page:

ESPN announced that the Outback Bowl overtime thriller with the Wildcats and Tigers posted a 4.06 national television rating. This is a 32% increase from last year's game. Thanks for watching this instant classic!

Suck on that Tennessee.; 4:20 PM
Taylor said...: how about streaming the basketball games that arent on tv!; 4:20 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: that was a whole lot of fun, JGT. Maybe you can roll the official HABOTN tree before you start the next one.; 4:20 PM
missinit said...: I am always a day late and a dollar short!!!!!!!!!!; 4:21 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Tommyd: I was reading questions off the chat.

I'm sorry some of you were having trouble with it. Maybe we'll run a night-time version later this week when (most of) you are home ... and see if it's just The Man keeping you down at work.; 4:21 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Thanks, PF. I posted that to Le Blog.; 4:22 PM
Norm said...: I saw a message to the effect "Cannot connect to Chat, please try again later". I tried it on my usual browser Chrome as well as IE 8 and had the same issue. But, I was able to watch and listen right along. It was cool.; 4:23 PM
Jet said...: Norm, that's because you're cooler than the other side of the pillow.; 4:24 PM
michael said...: Same deal with me, Norm.

Heres a crazy idea... chatroll + ustream? Any takers?; 4:24 PM
Norm said...: Jet - not only that, I'm also cooler than Billy Dee Williams.

So says Norm.; 4:25 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Mike, sounds like you just suck at ustream. Try again next time, buddy. You'll get it eventually.; 4:26 PM
Norm said...: 5:30ish in the ATL and I've been at this desk since 7ish. I'm taking it to the house. Check you later in the pm.; 4:27 PM
Harrison said...: Sooo we can see Jay fake laughing at your jokes, but he can't see you right?; 4:27 PM
Unknown said...: Jay, I may have missed this in the live chat, but what is your view on Etheridge? Will he be back?

Loved the video campfire. It shocked me to suddenly have Jay G. staring me in the face on my monitor. Kudos.

As for improving it, getting the list of questions upfront might be good, say in the blog here prior to it starting.

The only negative I see is that it doesn't document your answers for others to review later. Maybe Michael the mad live blog blogger would like to get involved to eleviate that if his paraphrasing is okay with you:); 4:28 PM
Jet said...: OK, guys, Jay G won't be here tonight, so let's a take a bunch of hideous 3s, commit a boatload of stupid fouls, and shoot free throws like that blind cowbell girl from the Boise State band.

I think we can lose another one since HABOTN Dude won't be here. No one will ever know.; 4:30 PM
Unknown said...: You don't suppose Jay was actually able to see us too, do you? I mean it could be a homeland security think and the bush administration had hidden cameras installed in every monitor and they have a special agency that watches people setting at computers and flags anyone wearing a turban as a possible terrorist, or maybe I am paranoid?; 4:31 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Michael ... that could work.

I'm not bethrothed to UStream's chat widget.; 4:32 PM
Unknown said...: Jet, could you clarify how that is different than when Jay is at the games?; 4:33 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: A list of questions gathered ahead of time is a great idea. We'll do that.; 4:33 PM
Anonymous said...: Harrison, didn't see any JG fake laffing, but he did exhibit cold shark-eyes when swinging the banhammer 3 seperate times.; 4:35 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: but, where does that leave us off the cuff guys? I can't prepare in advance for a chat. My questions need to just come to me naturally in my flow.; 4:35 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: PF, you have license to freestyle.; 4:38 PM
Anonymous said...: Jet ..sadly your BBall coaching philosophy seems familiar on the Plains right now.; 4:38 PM
Unknown said...: The other improvements I can see is how the video chat begins and ends. Maybe have an Auburn logo on the screen first accompanied by that Elvis entrance music.

As for closing, if Ted Roof has the time to drop by and close the show, that would work.; 4:39 PM
Seanachie said...: I was never able to see the commentary, either on the blog or at Ustream. Kept saying it could connect to the server. The video was fine, though.; 4:41 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Etheridge ... my guess is that he won't be back, but that's not based on any facts. That was a bad injury. He's still in the neck brace. I think he's lucky to be OK and, well, I wouldn't feel comfortable "doubling down" after a situation like that.

Maybe he feels differently.; 4:41 PM
Jet said...: Lebo or not, can't see ol' Roy taking his team on the road for a non-conference game to a lesser opponent after last night's debacle. So we need to find another potential oppponent to open the arena.

Ol' Roy took the team to Charleston on Saturday for a little R&R, then got their butts kicked last night.; 4:41 PM
Unknown said...: That is what I was thinking with Etheridge, Jay. He has had that neck brace on for a long time. It kind of reminds me of the Protho situation. Some thought he just broke his leg and would be back next season. Some injuries are so easy to fix. I just hope Etheridge does whatever is best for him, but I am assuming we cannot count on him being available.; 4:45 PM
Unknown said...: Auburn needs to get creative with it's basketball program. I hear that Monday Night Raw has a guest host every week. How about we just have a guest head coach every week for men's basketball. Sure, there might be a bit of a consistency problem, but none of the coaches would be around long enough to get bashed too terribly bad.; 4:47 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Another good idea, SFC.; 4:52 PM
Harrison said...: I say we get real creative and recruit players and win games, but that's just me. I'm nuts; 4:53 PM
Unknown said...: Just thinking outside the box. If you ask Michael, I bet the box was actually constructed by puppets.; 4:54 PM
michael said...: Puppets fear boxes, steve. They have nightmares about Captain Boxhead regularly.; 4:55 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Harrison, please stop your ridiculous ideas. They're not welcome here.; 4:56 PM
Unknown said...: Forgot that the cornpone bowl is tonight. Could we become the Hottest Georgia Tech Blog On the Net for just one night?; 4:58 PM
Fearless Freep said...: Missed the live stream, but I just read on the ITAT Football Forum that it sucked, which means that it must have been pretty awesome.; 4:58 PM
Harrison said...: sorry. that's how i got kicked out of communist china too; 4:58 PM
Unknown said...: Michael, how do you feel about live blogging Jay's video blogs so we will have documentation of what he said? Are you up for it?; 4:59 PM
michael said...: I don't know Steve. Jay hasn't even started paying me for all the other live blogging I have been doing. Luckily, Kristina hasn't been around to collect her wages recently, so I am not currently bankrupt or anything.; 5:01 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Oh, ITAT said it was terrible?

WOW. Now I know it kicked ass!

I personally would love to see Mark Murphy get on live video and show himself. I'd tape that.; 5:01 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Steve, I can "tape" the segments for future playback. MJT could just watch those and ... wouldn't need to blog at all.; 5:02 PM
Unknown said...: Yes, you are cutting edge Jay. We didn't throw you any softballs, of course there we no differential equations questions either, so I think it was fair.; 5:03 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Jay G Tate vs Mark Murphy in UStremed race across the front lawn. Tripping allowed.; 5:03 PM
Unknown said...: That would be awesome, Jay. I hated I had to miss half of the thing, but if I don't work occasionally, they might not pay me.; 5:03 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I wouldn't fight Mark. He's so much older than me. I respect my elders.; 5:07 PM
Harrison said...: I only fight the elderly and females smaller than me. I have to know i can win, and not get punched too hard; 5:08 PM
Fearless Freep said...: Bear in mind, I said the ITAT Football Forum said it sucked. That's the garden variety Interwebbed fans who are too cheap to pony up for a paid subscription.

Don't know if Murphy had any comment. 'Cause, I'm like, too cheap to pony up for a paid subscription.; 5:08 PM
michael said...: I fight goats.; 5:09 PM
Harrison said...: i got the goat at 3:2 Michael; 5:10 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Freep -- so does that mean you're bursting my bubble? Dammit.

I wanted SUBSCRIBERS to rip me!; 5:11 PM
michael said...: What if I told you the goat was sickly, had only three legs, and was named "Chester"?; 5:12 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Known to his friends as Chest Rockwell.; 5:13 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: I know not to fight MrsTHT. She would kick my buttockal region; 5:13 PM
Harrison said...: Was it the famous fightin goat "Chester the people molester" ? If so, then it's even money.; 5:14 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: but the other goat is named BEVO.

Hook 'em Horns!!!; 5:15 PM
michael said...: Yeah Harrison, that's him. Another goat, Edgar the Goat-De-Legger permanently injured him in his last match. He's only got three legs now. I can take him!

And Jay, I don't think Chester really has any friends. He's a bit of a loner. A loose canon. He wasn't out to make friends.; 5:16 PM
Fearless Freep said...: Well, if it's any consolation, the guy who started the thread (entitled "Jay G. Tate - OMG") appears to be a subscriber.

The one with the most brutal comments is a poster with the handle "jtate002". Coincidence?; 5:19 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: good night, Hotties!; 5:32 PM
Unknown said...: Could Jay be flaming his own blog to attract attention? Has he taken up the Kiffikin mantra that any attention is good attention?; 5:42 PM
LuvAU41 said...: I don't think I've ever bought any Bud's Best cookies, but now I know I never will. I just saw a commercial with Bud himself and whole bunch of people standing behind him. He said(and I'm paraphrasing),"I would like to congratulate the Alabama Crimson Tide on their Championship season...On Jan. 7 we will watch Alabama's football team cream the Texas Longhorns and become the National Champions..." Then he and everyone behind him yelled, "RTR!"

UGH, it made me sick.

HOOK 'EM HORNS!!!!; 5:45 PM
Jim Rome said...: I saw on front page where you mentioned 'taping' the segments. Is it possible to go back and see what we missed?; 5:46 PM
JgobravesHAG said...: wow did i really miss a rare campfire?; 5:47 PM
Unknown said...: jhag, not only a campfire, but a video campfire. Live streaming Jay on your computer. You can't beat it.; 5:49 PM
LuvAU41 said...: I really need to stop watching local news too. Yesterday, on ABC 33/40, Mike Raita and Jeff Speegle were broadcasting from Pasadena. They were like little schoolgirls they were so giddy. They had Finebum on and he was talking about next year's "two-peat."

UGH...I just don't know how I'm going to be able to live here if UAT wins.; 5:49 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Who would flame himself on ITAT?; 5:58 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I don't read the ITAT boards. Seriously. Never. I don't subscribe. I haven't. I won't. Couldn't read it if I wanted to read it.

I really like Jason Caldwell, though.; 5:59 PM
chip chip said...: one thing about AU, except for two games they've all been exciting win or lose. or as in the obb, win, win again, win again, and finally win for good.; 6:00 PM
chip chip said...: let's go heckle bud's cookies in their website's comments section if they have one. they may think a website is that back room with all the spiderwebs in it. they are bammers after all...

suck it bud's
& suck it clutch & powertrain mobile, al speaking of over the top bammer sponsors.; 6:05 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: it's not a two-peat, it's a repeat. you don't start making up words and adding numbers until three-peat. Stupid Finebaum.; 6:33 PM
CHB said...: I know I am still new to this blog so I don't know if I have earned the right to ask about improvements. With that said I'm going to anyways. Would it be possible to set up the blog so that we don't have to refresh any blog? If that can't be done then maybe it could be set up so that each post is numbered for easy reference later. Any thoughts?; 6:43 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: You need to give me more.

Describe the problem first. Do you get confused about which blogs are new?; 7:15 PM
Unknown said...: CH=B, I do not believe that is possible with the blogger interface. Numbered comments would be cool, though.

Now, to get serious. Die Cornpones, Die!!!; 7:19 PM

2010 - Georgia Tech vs Iowa
2009 - Virginia Tech vs Cincy
2008 - Kansas vs Virginia Tech
2007 - Louisville vs Wake Forest

Yikes!; 8:05 PM
atlantatiger said...: The yellow hammer...hate the yellow hammer. Quick question everyone...Should i go watch the bama game on thursday with the wifey adn a bunch of bammers or do i sit in silince and cheer on the burnt orange from home alone.; 8:06 PM

That is a terrible lineup.

The BCS has ruined the bowl season, IMO. Most BCS bowl games blow.; 8:08 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: That Orange Bowl lineup would probably be the same with or without the BCS. The conference tie-ins are the same as right before the BCS, aren't they?; 8:11 PM
E-Bro said...: atltiger...will there be an embargo on cheering for Texas at the party? If so, stay away.; 8:12 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Not the same, but still terrible. It would be GT vs Cincy this year, and that Kansas game would've been Louisville or something.; 8:13 PM
Jet said...: Dear Brother ATL ...

In these times, I turn to the Good Book for guidance.

“By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.” (Hebrews 11:24-25)

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” (Matthew 7:13-14)

I trust you have your answer.; 8:18 PM
E-Bro said...: Got something for the agnostics, Jet?; 8:22 PM
atlantatiger said...: Thanks Jet. That is the answer i was going for. There will be definatly and embargo. I will not be attending the red elephant club of atlanta on thursday.; 8:23 PM
atlantatiger said...: I have been and it is awful. I have never seeen so much houndstooth in all of my life. You would think that the school colors are black and white.; 8:24 PM
E-Bro said...: Auburn only had a single digit over West Georgia a moment ago.

For some context, West Georgia is only a Division II school.; 8:25 PM
Jet said...: Ebro ...

Anonymous said...: Favorite question from Saban's call in show..

"Coach..I know you are a serious guy, but where is the party gonna be after we beat Texas' ass?"; 8:27 PM
atlantatiger said...: Typical.; 8:28 PM
E-Bro said...: My Texas shirt is already pressed and folded for Thursday night.; 8:28 PM
atlantatiger said...: Is it that the ACC really sucks this year or is the big 10 getting better? I think the first statement.; 8:31 PM
E-Bro said...: With that kind of attitude, if Bama loses on Thursday, I guess the Bama fan base will get another scolding from Saban for not taking the bowl game seriously and having it affect the team.; 8:31 PM
atlantatiger said...: THey will be jumping off Denny Chimes if they dont win thursday.; 8:32 PM
Jet said...: ATL ...

Iowa is a bad matchup for Tech. Iowa has a very vanilla defensive philosophy that is well equipped to deal with the option.; 8:32 PM
E-Bro said...: When's the last time the Big Ten won two BCS bowl games in a year? Has it ever happened?; 8:35 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: I like Georgia Tech tonight.; 8:37 PM
atlantatiger said...: Jay G hope your right. Atlanta will be somber tomorrow if not.; 8:39 PM
atlantatiger said...: I really dont think that that ACC is very good at all. Clemson losing to USC and then UGA beating Tech on the same weekend is proof enough.; 8:40 PM
Jimmy said...: Mr. Ferentz the NFL is calling; 8:41 PM
atlantatiger said...: be back in a bit Peanut Butter Oreo and milk time; 8:42 PM
Jet said...: Here's a thought: Tech is lucky tobe donw by a touchdown. If they can hold Iowa to 14-7 at half, then that would be a positive.; 8:42 PM
atlantatiger said...: Off topic but i do love the new resealable pack for oreos as it keeps them very fresh.; 8:50 PM

wtc said...: SO AU wins by 24 over a D II school.; 8:58 PM
CHB said...: Did anyone notice on the 1st extra point for Iowa that the GT player was on the ground sliding and hit the planted foot of the kicker? Just as in the Au/NW game the kickers ankle rolled and he fell down, but there wasn't a call. I will forever believe that the refs and the announcers wanted NW to win that game.; 8:59 PM

West Georgia? None of that.; 9:03 PM
CHB said...: As far as the bammer/UT game. You all know very well what the bammers will say on Friday if they lose. "Well at least we were playing for the championship." I almost always root for the SEC but no part of me could ever root for UA. It's not the program that I hate but the fan base. I would say 85% only know bama football because momma and daddy rooted for them. They never went to school there nor can they even spell school.; 9:03 PM

CHB said...: Lets face it. Auburn just isn't good at basketball. As much as I wanted Lebo to be the coach, it's not going to happen. We just spent 80+mil on a new arena it's time to go spend 2mil on someone who can win in it.; 9:05 PM
atlantatiger said...: LOve it. yaaaa hooooooooooooo; 9:06 PM
E-Bro said...: Yeah, my parity comment was geared towards the UNC-CofC game, not Auburn-West Georgia.

No reason that game should have been single digits in the second half. Conference play is about to start and there will be no more hiding.

Start out with SC at home (winnable) before going to Knoxville (uh-oh) on Wednesday in front of a national television audience on ESPN.; 9:07 PM
