Earlier this week, unbeknown to each other, my Carnal Gaming teammate Mancakes and I both signed up to write for CommFT. While I signed up primarily to do league coverage (looks like I'll be finding another league to cover soon, unfortunately), I also spoke to eXtine about doing some video editing and just generally helping out.
Well, it turned out that Mancakes had an idea as well. As it turns out, he was fond of CommFT's original Moments of Glory series, which seemingly died a couple of months back, and was interested in bringing it back.
For those unfamiliar, Moments of Glory was a series of short clips, one per video, that highlighted a really cool segment from a competitive match (scrims, pugs, league games, etc.). These didn't necessarily have to be as pretty as your general Top Ten submissions (not that such clips were not included), but could be something unique or funny that happened instead.
After some discussion with eXtine, Mancakes and I have been handed the reigns to continue the development of Moments of Glory, but we'll be needing help from the rest of you to do it.
What We Need
Our primary need right now is someone talented to cook us up some cool graphics. Anyone interested in doing so can hit me up on Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/id/improperdancing
We're also obviously going to need the community here to send us their own moments of glory to include in the series. I'm going to be taking a page from the Top Ten book and structuring submissions in an identical manner.

Emails can be sent to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please do not attach your demo files, but rather upload them to a third-party site (such as MegaUpload) and link them in the email. Clips should be around thirty to sixty seconds, accounting for segments that can be sped up or edited out of course.
Note: Due to the pain that is getting pre-major-update demos to work, we will only be using clips from .dem files that are relatively current.
Hopefully Mancakes and I get some solid interest in this series and we can continue where Jesus left off. We look forward to receiving your submissions.
Thanks!

Nope. Starting from scratch. I don't have access to the old email address that Jesus used or any of the .dem files that people submitted to him.
For all intents and purposes this will be a new series, but we figured it made more sense to keep the name the same since the new version will share the same intent as the original.
Well alright then,answers my question. :)
I would view scrims and pugs as competitive matches. Any time you get a team together and play a game against another team of equal numbers with specific match rules in place is a competitive game.
I'm confused,so MOG is only league matches? What about scrims or pug.na?

Obviously from a lobby (or pug.na)
Well, I mean there really isn't much of a difference except that we won't be comparing tons of different footage and finding the best ten, but rather just asking ourselves if we really liked a specific clip and if it deserves to make the next vid.
