Um, I was telling you people about this in an .org newsletter article a year and something ago
The .org has roots in distinctly American AMVing culture, but it's not the only AMVing culture, and ultimately others are starting to catch up. I don't think voting blocks are nearly as much of a factor as cultural differences. Ultimately the way AMVing is approached in different places is different. One thing I've observed outside the English-speaking countries is the fierce technicality and competitiveness, on levels we generally aren't used to here. Even the genres of videos that predominate are different - just look at the predominance of drama videos at cons here, and compare it to what you see at European contests...

The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Just force all non-USA citizens to go through a USA citizen proxy for VCA registration. Naturally, personally identifying information will be required.
At that point we'll have 100% guaranteed U.S.A dominance, and we'll be helping to fortify the U.S. TERRORIST DATABASE to jackboot.
This is more in line with USA foreign policy, anyway.
