I would have totally joined in for a bit, got a conversation going, then revealed I edited my video, trololo~! :dino:


Absolutely!! :up: :up: :up: :rofl:

Maybe we could get the preshow louder at the rescreen? I might have been sitting next to you Castor, I also had a few jackasses sitting behind me who talked shit on Troy, every video, and all of the other editors during the preshow and part of the main show. I guess if you hate your community, that's your business, but to criticize other people during the show is despicable. Creators should know better than to talk during the contest. It completely ruined the preshow for me and put me in a pretty bad mood for the main show. I'm just glad they didn't come in until after mine played in the preshow.

It was so cool to see all the other editors during the AMV Chef event! Having them there to support the hobby was great! It was really awe-oh wait...the only editors that showed up were the ones that were required to show up.

:down: Pretty lame. Vlad put on a freakin' awesome show. You guys missed out on a lot.


But at least they hung around to chat with everyone after the meet and gre- .....nevermind :/

Totally had that done to me, 2 years ago at Otakon. After I'd won 2nd place for "Gunsmith Cat City", I chatted with someone who had said that "Gunsmith Cat City" should not have even been in 2nd place. I strung him along for a little bit, and then mentioned that I made that video. Of course, we both took it in good stride, me knowing that he was hoping to see something a little more effects-heavy win 2nd, and him knowing he didn't mean to offend, but it was all in good fun.

I probably should have talked to the people behind me and told them I made my video. Knowing anime nerds, they probably would have gone from being complete jackasses to scared and apologetic in a second. :nono:

sorry for double posting this. I realized I probably posted it in the wrong thread.

I have a small request for anyone who is at Expo and had an extra ballot (maybe because you got a creator ballot). I was holding one for melichan923 and seem to have misplaced it. It would mean a lot to her if someone were able to get us an extra ballot, preferably with the top attached as souvenier. If you can please PM me and we will figureout a place to meet up sometime during the con. Thank you in advance.

If Melichan will be at the awards and rescreening, I will personally make sure she gets a copy (several if desired) of the ballot. Have her see me during the pre-show.

I have 2500 of them left over. :O

ATTENTION ALL AMV CREATORS PRESENTLY AT AX

Having tallied the AMV creator ballots (27 received), there was no consensus on the Creator's Choice selection. There was a three way tie, with each receiving three votes. That vote is being thrown out.

I am asking all AMV creators who are at AX (and who submitted a vid to this year's competition and are thus eligible to vote) to check-in with me during the pre-show of the AMV rescreening. AS A GROUP, you shall receive one ballot, and after the competition you shall AS A GROUP select one entry that shall represent the creator's choice.

There will be a ten minute intermission provided at the conclusion of the AMTV-Pro part of rescreening for the creators to deliberate. If a result is not determined at that time, there will be no creator's choice selection for this year.

Please pass the word along to other AMV creators who are at con.

Oh geez I just now noticed and fully grasped this part. Not that I have a horse in the race this year, but still, to be a fly on the wall at this one... :twisted:
