I have to ask if Cirque du Kaliedo got the same massive groan when people saw Britney Spears pop up on the title page before the video as it did at Akon.

now if i can just attend the con at the same time i have a video make it into the contest
It did indeed. And I laughed a little bit each time I heard the groans because I'd seen it already and knew it was just that good :D Congrats!

Good luck. I've been trying for FIVE YEARS. And when the stars finally line up, the category gets axed before I can see it. :lol:

Anyways...congrats to all the winners. Good show. Good Iron Editor. Fun times.

Congrats to the winners. Interesting choices this year. A lot of alternative music, I noticed. Meh.

Comedy was pretty interesting. The Nazi Word song was pretty good, although the final verse kinda dragged a little, main reason I didn't want to use the song, but I understood the basis of that, still pretty good. I really liked K-ownd, it was very innovative and inspiring. I'm actually surprised the Polkarama vid won, seeing as it was a standard Weird Al Polka Montage vid, but it was obviously a fan favorite and it was done quite well in comparison with past polka vids, so congratulations on the win. I'm going to refrain from mentioning the other two comedy vids for their sake.

My personal fan favorite vid was the winner of Upbeat. Because I am sick that way.

Overall, nice job to all contestants. Next year I'll make sure to submit something for the con. And I'm certain it will come as a surprise for everyone.

Particularly me, since I have absolutely no clue what I'm going to do.

I had a lot of fun this year, the AMV contest and the IC were both enjoyable! <3 Congrats to the winners! I really loved the comedy category!

Though I got some bad responses to my AMV .__.;
I'm totally not entering anything pink or SC! next year :/
