I've got a couple reasons. The big one was so that if anyone complains about category they can see the tape of Matt explaining how to judge by it. The other....well, you'll have to wait for that.

I've had a couple people ask me to do theirs, and if I'm feeling nice i'll turn it on and record the sound for them, but they'll have to wait until after the con (or at least until after the finalists are announced) to get their copy.
re: hecklers....I wasn't able to borrow some SCA swords, so there'll be no beating people with sticks. Darn.

According to Matt's email, we will be watching tapes 3 and 4 this week(we did 1, 2 and the individuals for 5 last week). Next week will be 5, 6, and 7. This is, of course, taking it for granted that Quu got the tapes finished and that express mail hasn't collapsed under the weight of 400,000 copies of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. (Amazon promised Saturday delivery for virtually all non-PO Box preorders. I will be pissed as hell if I get home to find mine waterlogged because of the rain.)
