Last count, we have 26 videos on the server...one from Kitsuner that I am getting so I can put it on the server. That's 203.31 seconds of video.

Keep em coming ppl. You have just under an hour and a half.

The file is called BMA - project 753 - final but the title should be obvious.

Ok, in about an hour, I am going to disable the contest ftp login. I have gotten all the videos that were uploaded elsewhere that were posted on this forum, so everything that has been uploaded somewhere so far should be on the server.

DONT START DOWNLOADING EVERYTHING ON THE SERVER RIGHT NOW.

sorry about the all caps, but let people use the bandwidth to get their submissions in. Once I shut down the submission login, I will post a list of all the videos on the server, along with the creator and title...

At that time, you should download all the videos from the server, and PM me with your vote. Remember, each person that submitted anything gets ONE vote, regardless of the number of videos they entered.

Don't post your vote on the forum...send it to me privately. I will also answer any questions or complaints you have about this whole process via PM (please.)

Voting will go for 24 hours from the time I close the submission login. I am sorry if you are going camping and can't log your vote. This will allow me to get the prizes in the mail this week, get the MEP discs compiled, and all of that before any of you leave for AWA.

Any suggestions? Send me a PM or get me on #AMV

Here's my vid:

I'd just like to add that all of you are DQ'ed for your vids not being exactly 7.53 seconds long. 226 frames at 29.970 is 7.5408742075408742075408742075409 seconds and 181 frames at 23.980 fps is 7.5479566305254378648874061718098 seconds long. And the best you can do with 23.976 is 181 frames which gives you 7.5492158825492158825492158825492 seconds of video.

My vid on the other hand (as you can tell from the awesome filename) is exactly 753 frames at 100 fps, which just so happens to work out to... let me see... 7.53 seconds!!!

DQ'ed!!!

Since I come from the fat crayon school of mathematics, and since I believe that anyone who carries their decimal places out to 31 positions is secretly begging to have their underwears wedged up between their shoulder blades, I'll go ahead and clarify this right now.

If I play your video, and Winamp says 7 seconds in the duration column, I probably will assume it's 7.53 seconds. If another editor calls you on it, and you are off my more than .2 seconds, because .25 is one too many decimal places, then I will run your video through VdubMod and get a really anal count of how many hundreths of a second your video is.

Unless everyone wants this done, in which case that's cool...I'll do it.

Otherwise, don't worry...you don't have to go re-encode your video and change the frame rate so some bizarre multiple in order to not be disqualified. I'd rather like your video than watch it at 1000fps just so you can fit an entire episode of naruto into 7.530000000000000000000000000000000000 seconds.

Thanks for the heads up on the frame rate though, SSGWNBTD, and good job on the precision! Good luck with whatever else you got planned for today.
