Warcraft and Overwatch have nothing to do with each other... completely different games with completely different playstyles.
How would a Warcraft leadership answer questions on Overwatch if they do not play the game?

First we have to start with building a stronger identity within eGO, There's a lot of eGO players on overwatch, we need to get them active in the group as well, this can be accomplished by events and making sure people "invite your friends", from there the easiest recruitment strategy would be to add friends in game, get them to join team speak and convince them to join eGO. Lots of event options we could do, it's just a matter of doing them regularly and scheduling them out.
id love it if there were a way to make Overwatch a division. i see the obstacles and i know its a bit early to determine if its viable and i excited for the game itself moving forward. if it happens and i keep enjoying the game like i do now id happily join it

Well it is a class-based multiplayer FPS with cartoony graphics and silly humor, just put it under TF2! 
But seriously, with the type of game this is and how interactions are with players and the way games are played (no dedicated servers) and it isn't one big area (WoW, Division) makes it hard to define eGO inside the community. Since no one has eGO in their tags there is no way for people to tell if we are a community or not. It's essentially the same with Rocket League, but even then we could have tags in our names because of steam.
Obviously we can do fun things with members since we already have a large amount playing it here, but how do we attract outside people regularly?

The same way you did it with cod. You can change your name, just put the tags in front of your name. It wasn't that long ago when everyone did it for source

I'm confused by this - our CoD and CSS division had dedicated servers, and events. Could you explain this point a bit more?

We had a Division that ran COD4 and World at War servers. I believe we closed the last servers in 2011 or 2012
CoD 4 had dedicated servers

I don't really consider 7PM Eastern as "night".
I may be in the minority here, but I generally don't get a lot of gaming time in until later in the night myself. 7PM is still dinner time! :biggrin:

Speaking for me personally, 10 PM Eastern (7PM Pacific) is when I usually start my gaming time. But I may be in the minority here. I'm also not super active in eGO these days due to IRL responsibilities, so we should in no way base that time off of only my input.
