I had the chance to talk with Fuzzywuggoo, who spoke for eHgg Cast and the main caster, [eHgg] egg`.
Can you explain what eHgg Cast is?
Well, eHgg Amateur Shoutcast is a nightly cast that just allows the average player to come play and be streamed online. It is also a chance to win different giveaways that we're allowed to do, like coins and account passes and items like that.
So do you guys just do live casts, or replay casts as well?
So far, only live casts. All different modes, from tournament-like Banning Pick to "Superman Mode" with item drops, duplicate heroes, which can be fun sometimes, and "Man Mode" (All Random, No Swaps), another exciting gametype. It makes for fun humor when you see someone farming all game on a cast and then lose every single item.
Cool, so you use a lot of different game settings that aren't normally streamed?
Yeah, exactly.
What days/times do you guys usually stream, and how can people find you?
We typically stream every single night, starting around 7-8 PM Eastern Time. During the week, we stream until around 2 AM. On the weekends, we go until egg` falls asleep. We have our channel in-game, which is /j Clan eHggCast, and we also have our streams at www.justin.tv/ehgg and www.twitchtv.com/ehgg.
And you guys have an account prize event that's coming up?
Yeah, it's pretty exciting; we're giving away legacy accounts every night basically, and we announce how you can win it before every game. For example, for the last couple games it was the first person to get an Annihilation or an Immortal wins an account. We're going to start switching it up, and every time we hit a milestone on our streams, like 500 viewers, we will randomly give one away.
Alright, that's all I got. Anything else you'd like to add?
Just for everyone to come check it out; we're trying to come up with fun and exciting games and would love more ideas from people to make this idea better.
