Re: The 2009 Viewers' Choice Awards
Quite a short time limit for what has become an even greater opt-in process. I'd love to see what this does to the voting numbers after all's said and done. That said - i'm still poking people to alert them.

Re: The 2009 Viewers' Choice Awards
Isn't the opt-in process the same as last year? Yeah, the deadline is pretty close, but I really didn't want to delay the contest any longer. An email will go out to all members soon.
(To clarify what I said earlier, unlike video qualifications, there is no deadline on the Voter Agreement. The voting pages will just be hidden until you agree.)

Ok then - not too much more opt-in than before then. Could still confuse some of the less observant people, but who cares about them anyways?jasper-isis wrote: unlike video qualifications, there is no deadline on the Voter Agreement.

Re: The 2009 Viewers' Choice Awards
Since the definition of MEP mentions that the tracks are compiled into one long AMV, how long does the video have to be to be considered an MEP?

Re: The 2009 Viewers' Choice Awards
There's no length requirement.
Since the database can't automatically differentiate between MEPs and regular collaborative videos, I'm going to have to manually check all the nominations when they're in.

I may as well ask this now: is A Little Retrospect eligible to compete for Best Multi-Editor Project?jasper-isis wrote:There's no length requirement.

Re: The 2009 Viewers' Choice Awards
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that you were the only person who did the conceptualization and editing for that video. There are multiple editors and tracks in a literal sense, but in essence you were the only editor who worked to bring this video into being. So unfortunately no, it does not qualify for the MEP category. It may not get filtered out during the nominations stage, so I will have to manually DQ it if it gets nominated for best MEP. It can still complete in other categories (like best sentimental, for example).MrDoctorDoctorGimmeDaNews wrote:I may as well ask this now: is A Little Retrospect eligible to compete for Best Multi-Editor Project?jasper-isis wrote:There's no length requirement.

Really? Even though other people accepted collaboration, it can still compete in single video categories?jasper-isis wrote:It can still complete in other categories (like best sentimental, for example).

Re: The 2009 Viewers' Choice Awards
Hmm, that is a good point. In the past we've prohibited MEPs from participating in other categories in order to prevent huge voting blocs of MEP participants that would crowd out solo AMVs. This year I was going to allow collabs as opposed to MEPs to compete in other categories because they are generally worked on by fewer people. Obviously, A Little Retrospect is the exception. What do you think?
