Re: Project NeoEditor [Round 1 - Due Today 11:59 CST]

I'm making an official stance on extreme circumstances regarding the deadline rule. I didn't want to do this, but I personally know how terrible weather can not only be a major inconvenience, but also devastate communities [my hometown was destroyed a few years ago, and we had to rebuild it from scratch almost].

Send me everything you have done by 11:59 CST. Even if it's not completed, just send it.

If we have x number of drops [which is greater than or equal to the total number of those who are scheduled for elimination], you'd still be in the competition because you have a video sent to me and on file. In this situation, I will allow you to continue editing and send me your finished product by 6-9 AM the following morning [this gives roughtly 6-9 extra hours of editing] and I will send it in for judging, as allowing you extra time would not "harm" anybody in the competition who also had the same amount of time, and even a higher score because of the extra time would not matter, as everyone who would be eliminated is already eliminated. However, should your extra time result in your victory, you cannot "win" that round, and will not be considered in the standings. But since round winning does not result in a prize, this shouldn't be a big deal.

If we do not have 3 drops, then I will judge the video you had sent me at 11:59 CST.

Of the odd something of entries we've had, we've had entries ranging from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. If you are in Project NeoEditor I'm more than sure you're talented enough to create something in the amount of time you've been given, even under extreme circumstances.

This is the official stance I'm going to take on extreme deadline circumstances, and will apply it to everyone that demonstrates AN EXTREME NEED FOR AN EXTENSION.

Extreme Need:
1) Death in the family
2) Extreme Natural Disaster [I.E: Weather/EQ] that results in Power Outages and/or destruction of your personal property

Non-Extreme need:
1) Hardware/Software failure
2) Internet was "down"
3) "My hard drive failed!!!"
4) I went to a concert/date/friends/sex instead.


Please do not abuse this or troll regarding. I was VERY unsure about even doing this, but I realize that shit happens.

Do not expect this to work for you every time, and I will only reward this if the need is great.

EDIT: Drew, what are you even doing in this thread? :lol: :rofl:

If I had a death in the family or some sort of natural disaster occurred, I think that editing an AMV might be pretty low on my priorities...

Well, obviously. Atari, however, had a tornado in her area that caused power loss for the first day or so of the competition and has just about 4 hours today to edit. This is for situations ilke that. |:>

Orly now.

EDIT: Well, the rule will still stand, [did not just type out irregardless here] I'll just have to reconsider this particular case of need. Anyway, it's not a real big deal, since if you take the extra time, you're not in the standings anyway, so it's more of a punishment than it is an award.

Being an ass for the most part. To be honest, the 'well shit' joke was keeping me amused so I've just been lurking to see what else crops up. I had meant to enter too, but got sidetracked.

Yeah, our power just wasn't knocked out >_>

Even so, if my power was out for days I'd be more concerned about things like, replacing the food that spoiled in the fridge, things of that nature. That's all I'm saying. :P

This makes perfect sense but I'd set a more concrete time as the deadline, that way people can't justify sending in a video at like...10am or something and going "well is it really that different from 6-9am?"

Also, for some reason I thought this was all due yesterday. And then I had a weird dream about editing my segment and hopping on a plane to the Czech Republic to get Sanya's video from her. Her dad made us some tea while we waited for Sanya to finish making out with her lesbian lover who turned out to be Mitch in a wig. And then I woke up suddenly, obviously I did not want to see where this dream was going. D:

I'd take sex over an amv contest anyday.

My Eva unit 1 died, can I have an extension?
