Okay, I'm in a desperate search for reviews, as one of my goals this year is to have atleast 2 reviews for each video. Here's the rules, I know they're a bit confusing.


If you review a vid that has no opinions: I'll give you two ops
If you review a vid that has 1 op: I'll give you one back
If you review a vid that involves Linkin Park: I'll give you three reviews, HOWEVER, if my Linkin Park vid has more than two reviews, you'll get nothing.

If you review a vid that has 2 or more ops: You get nothing. Weee!


Vids I expect to get really bad scores on: Both "Butterfly" vids, "Cecelia", and "Rika's Blindness"

Have fun. Watch out for the bugs I'm too lazy to take out. O.o(These include "Cecelia" and "Rika's Blindness"

The links are found in my signiture.

Here's a cheat code:

If you watch my "feeling for the first Time" and "Hanging by a Moment" AMVs, you only have to do one op comparing the two. You can then copy and paste this op so it's the same op for both vids. I believe both these vids have no ops. So if you do this, you can get away with one op, while I have to give you four!(nifty, huh?)

wow, oh crap I forgot to put in that I'm also expecting obscene scors(as in 1's in video capture and such) for "Feeling for the First Time" and "Hanging by a Moment" both these I did using a camcorder because I didn't have a DVD-Rom at the time. And unlike most my camcorder-done vids, these ones were the worst in the quality department. So if you want to stay away from those vids, I just wanted to warn you all.

Otherwise, I'm getting to you, Longview, really I am. It'll be up either today or tomorrow unless something drastic happens.

Longwire, all your ops are now posted. Ignore the PM unless Tripod is messing with you and won't let you download my videos.

Sorry about the FFVII vid in advance, great Eva vid though.

Reviewed Can I get a Moment.

I want a review of my Soul 2 Soul video.

And would like a review for my AD Police of Truth video.

The first more than the second, since the second has more reviews at the moment.

Also reviewed Feeling For the First Time.

Your remake actually got a lower score than the original.

I guess you'll just have to review my other videos once I get them uploaded again. :)

Thanks for the return reviews. I'm immensely amused at your shock at seeing the Soul 2 Soul video was done with WMM.

Well here's proof:

The main reason I had a MPEG format is because I had a friend who really wanted to see it who is only able to watch MPEG movies.

Maybe it's because I only use WMM when I only have camcorder footage. Because of that, I guess my brain automatically goes "Ooo! WMM! Crap footage!"

Anyway, nice reviews to you, too. I replied to them, as well. I'm amazed this topis isn't getting that many hits, though. . .

I private messaged you about this, but maybe you didn't read it yet? Anyways, my Lovesick Signs video is reuploaded, since you still owe me two reviews I'd like you to review it please.

And on the spur of the moment I resized your Avator and made it a jpeg so that it looks sharper: Image

Just save it to your computer and reupload it to the forum from your forum Profile if you want to use it. :)

On the PM: Yeah, I read it, I've been watchign the AMV for almost every day, now. I don't know why I haven't reviewed it yet, to be honest. I guess I just can't find anything to say ><;; In my journal I talk about you video almost every entry since you PMed me "I have to go review KLin's! AMV today! It's really good!" Next day: "I MIGHT get to reviewing KLin's AMV, today.." and the day after that.. "I still need to review KLin's vid" etc., etc. I HOPE I'll get to it today. I'm REALLY sorry about the whole thing. ><

On the avatar: -throws arms around avatar- NO! What are you doing! I LIKE my crappy avatar! Sure, it started out as a mistake that I said I'd fix later, but if I actually DID fix it, I wouldn't be "Proud Owner of the Worst Avatar"!! In fact, I plan on having more 'bad avatars' in the future!

Back to your AMV: Yeah, I find myself bored and completely free of any work today, so I guess I'll have to force myself to review the AMV. I don't know why I'm hesitating..(Maybe I don't want to point out all the errors to make it be less entertaining when I watch it next time?) Ah well.

That's alright, even popular reviewers like SpPanda sometimes gets held up with doing reviews. ;) I'm not in the habit of keeping my journal up to date so I hardly ever read anybody else's. :D I ought to do it more often. You learn the most interesting things, like Ominstrata's near-death and ethereal experiences. :)

I don't mind when people point out the errors in my video as long as they explain what the problem is. That's the best way to help me improve my editing skills. :)

But thanks for letting me know that you did enjoy it. :)

Thanks! You raised some interesting views in your opinion. I wrote a comment in reply to your opinion that you should read. :)

I'm sure you'll come back to watch it again some day. It's the sort of video that I like to keep in my AMV rotation, and it'll crop up every now and then. But it's not the kind that I'd continuously watch over and over by itself unless I'm working on editing it or pinpointing some error in it. :)
