LOL!!! Every1 has had more sex than me... that was priceless. Had to DL it just cuz Godix had to go and steal my post about Jacon, and I gotta say this was funny. Sex is always funny. Not to mention all the hentai... too bad I'm not allowed to get away with stuff like that.

Heh that video pushed the limits on what we could allow at acen. It ALMOST didn't make it.

The Nadesico scene was the best part in that video.

Well and there are exactly how many editors on staff who are NOT working with the AMV's already? :p

And congrats to all the winners. I missed most of it because of some interesting situations that kept popping up all weekend in the various panel rooms. Once finals are done I am going to have to start grabbing the ones that are online and watching. (3 finals down 2 more to go!)

Congrats to the winners and participants- there were a whole lot of excellent videos in the contest (and several really fun ones for me to use in the future for IE games

).

That said, moving on to the 'Discussion' part of the thread- I talked to Julius and Dan about this at the con, but I'm curious what everyone else thinks. My only real 'gripe' if you will with the contest was the overall length- to me, nearly 3 hours is just too many AMVs at a time. I think you could likely have cut it down to around 2 hours and not have lost too many really outstanding videos.

What does everyone else think?

And yes DW- your video did belong in Romance.

He was nearly there! Some doujin images would probably have helped. If we incorporate audience voting next year I want to see at least 3 NarutoxSasuke romance videos submitted.

Back to topic...What is everyone's opinion on 2 hour contest and a portion of voting done by audience ballot?

I think he's referring to the presence of an aussie voice. The aussie vocal pattern exuded so much burly that it almost didn't make it. True story.
