Actually, I'd totally consider an AMV Gong Show as being a serious suggestion as well. We already effectively run one AMV-oriented game show during the Iron Editor, and there are plenty of other anime-themed game shows at conventions these days, and AMV-themed one would make quite an interesting event. I'd definitely be all for this- including asking Greggo to host it since ACen is one of the few cons he still attends.
It would make for something amusing for everyone to make a video to as well- we always strive so hard to make videos as perfect, clean, and appealing as as we can, it would be a lot of fun I think to try and do the opposite (while keeping the content within what could be shown). And it would actually serve as two 'events' in one- you could have the actual game show where the panel 'gongs' the videos when they get fed up with them, and then for those really masochistic people you could have a block later on when you show the videos that were submitted in their entirety.
