OLD GUIDELINES FROM WHEN I FIRST POSTED:
Alright nerds let's ride on this momentum and get some stuff done.
Disclaimer: everything's tentative, we'll change what needs to be changed, and tackle problems as they come.
Critical Club Presents: will be our new attempt at a flagship collaborative show. To set one up, we'll need to establish a few things for each show. Namely:
I. the committee for that particular show
II. the card for that particular show
III. the time and date for the stream of that particular show
Going into further details,
I. The Committee
We'll need three people per show, to make nearly all the decisions in it's creation. This'll include naming the show (Critical Club Presents: Insert Committee Subtitle Here), picking matches for the card, deciding on how long the show will go, doing promotional material for the show, gathering up the footage and editing it into a presentable file, settling on a way to stream the file, and dealing with all the people keen to participate. The committee will regulate and handle all incoming match footage, and in the end present it as a show. This'll be more of a responsibility than a privilege, as anyone who's run a show will know.
As of now, the committee will be entirely voluntary. We'll take either the first 3 volunteers per month,or a randomized team from the volunteer pool if there are more than 3 volunteers. We just started with the first three volunteers

II. The Card
Once we determine the committee, we'll then determine the card.
Interested parties will submit their potential matchups, with:
a.) estimated positions on of the match on the card (opener, midcard, main event, etc.)
b.) estimated length of time of the submitted footage. (actual time, not match time, including all production and post/prematch shenanigans)
Interested parties will submit their potential matchups, with:
a.) estimated positions on of the match on the card (opener, midcard, main event, etc.)
b.) estimated length of time of the submitted footage. (actual time, not match time, including all production and post/prematch shenanigans)
c.) names of participating edits or creators.
This will give both the edit creators and the committee a good framework with which to build their eventual content: the creators once approved will know what kind of match they need to build, and to what general length. The committee will have some ballpark values to plug into the card skeleton, and will be able to get a estimated show length. Everyone will see what everyone else is submitting and will help each other fill up the gaps in the card.
We'll establish a system for creator booking priority down the line, but as of now all I'll say is the committee should prioritize multi-creator collaborations over single-creator matchups.
III. The Timeslot
Once the committee has an estimate for show length, it'll make it a bit easier to settle on a timeslot. This will likely be at the end of a given month, will likely be on an american weekend, etc. Provided everyone sticks to the pre-recorded footage and doesn't ask for a live sim, the actual airing of the show should be simple once all footage is compiled for presentation.
***
Now, knowing all that, let's go into the
ESTIMATED MONTHLY SCHEDULE
Week 1: Committee Establishment
Week 2: Match submissions and card finalization
Week 3 through 4: Time allotted to creating match footage (edit creators) and compilation (committee)
End of Week 4: Showtime
And I'll just leave that there as reference at the moment.

ALRIGHT, now for the meat of this post: Let's establish the Committee for the first Critical Club Presents:. There won't be any hard pre-requisites, I just ask that you know how to work with other people, because you will be doing exactly that for every step of the process. Oh, and ideally be available on discord, because that is where the live chat organization and brainstorming is easiest to do.
Express your interest in the thread, and if we get at least three people by the end of the month we'll have our first official committee. If there's no interest, I'll wait til there is. If there's MORE than three by month's end, I'll have to dust off the randomizer wheels.
