Some of this isn't new, but please read the whole thing as I have an important question at the end.
With the new Youtube URL system, it seems like it will be harder to obtain URLs.
This is because YouTube now has requirements.
The requirements are:

• 500 or more subscribers
• Channels is at least 30 days old
• Channel has uploaded a photo for the channel icon
• Channel has uploaded channel art

While going through this, I noticed this:

What really intrigued me is the "any vanity urls you currently own"
Does this mean if I, for example, were to own soundcloud.com/god or twitter.com/god and confirmed that those were my accounts, I would be eligible for youtube.com/c/god?
I have yet to test this, so I wanted to see if anyone could confirm or deny this, I'm not sure how it works.

No, Phobia and I have already experimented with this a bit, you can't do that. By "Any Vanity URL'S" It means the vanity url's that Google has PREVIOUSLY assigned to you. Not twitter, IG, SC, or any other site. This is just a new way to get to channels.

YOU CAN NOT GET ANY TAKEN /u OR / OG'S ON YOUTUBE WITH THIS NEW URL SYSTEM.

Also this is in the wrong section I believe. It should be moved to networking.

For the name of the linked website, do .tk domain names work?
Also I don't think this should be in networking because the buying and selling of OGs is related to the marketplace, so I wanted to ask the marketplace.

NETWORKING
"This section is for the discussion of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Kik and more."

You're not selling on this thread, and you're not buying on this thread, as far as any other questions you have, I'm sure a .TK domain would work, but wouldn't get you far/anywhere.
