Holy crap, that damn well shocked me. Much to the amusement of my coworkers, I nearly fell out of my chair when I read the email at work. I didn't think I had a chance in hell of winning anything this time around.

Congratulations everybody who won!

Interestingly enough, I myself thought the video was well done and was a great parody of the old 60s trailers with a relatively less popular anime. Maybe a lot of the younger people in the audience may not have appreciated it as much, but I and many others sure did :D
