No theme? Awwwwwww.....
Driftpeasant wrote:The second contest is the Theme Contest. As one might expect, this will be videos with a specific theme. This will only have one award, the Best Video (or some similar yet more high falutin' title) award. It will be decided by the audience, probably through balloting, though we may rig a noise meter and use applause.
Oh yeah... the theme. Well, since it's the end of Winter, and we're all getting tired of it by that point, and because, more importantly, Ushicon broke me up with my girlfriend (well, not REALLY, but it was when we realized it wasn't going to work. 14 months of my life... wasted... *sniff*), your 2005 Theme is... HATE.

You didn't think this through did you?
So we are going to be watching nothing but HATE themed videos for the contest? No drama? No comedy? No Parody?
But I figured as much would come out from a CON with no CONTEST experience.

Driftpeasant wrote:But to answer your question, yes, we did give this some thought. I'm sorry if it doesn't meet with your approval. Part of the reason for the decision was to try to encourage new videos for submission, because it seems unlikely that lots of folks will just randomly have hate themed videos lying around. At the same time, if you happen to HAVE a really good hate themed video, we don't want to exclude you from submitting it. Part of the reason was that we didn't want to just have a traditional AMV contest. We'd like to be a bit different. Thus, a theme contest.

-_-.
It's not that my skills aren't up to it...its just the way things are run at Ushicon that makes me not want to partcipate and save my better ideas and videos or better CONs who actually know how to run contests.

Just resubmit "Faces of Death".
