Plus, the contest master tape has to be mastered before I can be 100% safe telling anyone that they got in. It'd suck if I told someone that they got in and then it turned out that they didn't for some last-minute reason.... :(


Gee Matt, I think you should pull off some all nighters and get the results fast, My nails are already to short to bite :P

I concur =) Hell, distribute it. Send a few people a stack of ballots and have them tally up their totals, then add it up.

:oops:

I'm in even bigger trouble. Mine had lesbians, beastie-ality, cross-dressing, one guy frenching another guy, potential necrophilia, and (the worst offense of them all) a written rejection of the use of any DBZ!!!

DQ'ed nothing -- I'm lucky if I don't get the Chair!! (No, not THAT Chair!!)

This is because I'm anal.

There has been some references to overused videos, so I went through and tallied the 5 series/movies most used. This does NOT include AMVs that had various (69 and higher/lower) shows edited together:

NGE: 11
Kenshin: 9
Trigun: 9
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust: 8
Ah! My Goddess!: 6

Out of 179 videos viewed (which includes the ones that were suggested for outright DQing), that totals 43 videos coming from those five shows, roughly a quarter of what we viewed.

This is not to say that these vidoes were any more or less exemplary than others. But, it may shed some light on some of the repetition comments.
Done. Guarding.

Wow. I don't remember that many Trigun videos... they must have mostly been on the first 4 tapes.

I think it was somewhat of a surprise to me that there weren't more Bebop vids, since I've seen a lot of them lately posted here...

I'm pretty sure that these were *all* on tapes 5 through 7. Or at least the vast majority.

There's no way that there were only 8 Bloodlust videos, it felt like 80. Kenshin felt like at least 10 as well, but 9 is close enough I guess.

At least I was the only one to use the anime I did this year!

Hopefully this will change in the future, though. 8)

I saw at least one other video there that used Steel Angel Kurumi. Then again, I think that vid used 60something other animes as well...
