Content Warning offers you the chance to actually go viral by sending your best clips to the Lost Footage Project.

Nothing like risking your life along with your friends for the sake of views and followings. During my team's many expeditions to the old world, we figured out a winning formula for play counts: catchy intro, someone dying for the camera, lots of screaming, and if we had the time and sanity, recording an outro with one of the monsters, which adds Bonus.

Usually these clips go to waste and live out their remaining lives in an untouched folder. But now, Landfall, publisher of Content Warning, has launched a Lost Footage Project and welcomes any player to send in their clips; a waiver and entry form are linked in the Twitter post, so if you want to read and I'd like you to sign it. Clips must be unedited, but you can also export and send in footage that didn't make it through the round (e.g., the whole group died trying to get funny footage of a monster). Also, clips do not have to be in English, but "content in languages we don't speak (because we don't understand them) will be harder to evaluate, but will still be allowed," Landfall noted in a tweet.

If you were to send a video to Landfall, your clip would be scattered around the other players' games as a disc, which other players could find and watch. So it could go really viral or at least make some people laugh.

One of the clips I'm going to send in is of my group making their way alertly through the old world. Between me muttering to myself, "I want to go home," and my friend's eternal optimism that "everything will be fine," someone on my team is grabbed by a star on the ceiling and quickly dragged up into the air and hung upside down.

After my very helpful observation, "You got grabbed," I set to work prying the jaws of the ceiling star to drop it. Another teammate had recorded the whole thing, and after reviewing it, I quickly realized that my heroic efforts didn't look very cool because I was jumping around with a boom mic and yelling for the monster to release my friend.

It may not seem like much, but I felt pretty proud of my efforts to save my buddy, even if I had to leave him to die and escape. So it's nice to know that if anyone ever finds my disc, they will have the same chance to appreciate this heroic effort.
