Be that as it may, handicaps will not be given to people with slower computers. If you decide to enter the tournament, you are agreeing NOT to complain that you weren't able to get as far as your opponent due to your computer chugging (For this reason, it is HIGHLY recommended that you edit with the "bait-and-switch" method, using fast MJPEG files rather than slow AVS files)

Rule pwned!

I gather there is still a judge who hasn't seen last night's videos?

There's also the matter of this computer never having been meant for video editing - I still gotta find my Premiere CD and install it (as well as the AMVApp + suchlike) before I can even do anything...

You are correct. I sent Lee a PM with the links and have yet to hear from him.

Congrats doughboy! You're timing was just so much better and fast music just isn't my style

I told you that you'd mang him, Krat, but did you believe me? Nooo...

Good job to both contestants, though. Close matches and upsets ftw.

Krat: What did I tell you about the Ileia luck? I gave it to Kit and I gave it to you, and it worked, didn't it? But I already promised Kit all the Ileia luck I have for the next round. So if I have any extra, you can have it.
