But still, Just having the videos that you attempted to download in the list of videos would be much better than having ALL video listed.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the suggestions. I try to make improvements each year to the contest. This year's improvement was local hosting. :-) Perhaps next year with a better design, more cross-referrencing tools can be made available.

But to clarify, the "direct" and "indirect" counters are just counters and do not record who clicked on what. Only "local" counters remember which video(s) you have successfully downloaded.

Thanks again and have fun!! ^_^

Phade.

All of these responses seem to completely forget the fact that most of us see TONS of videos outside of the internet. Conventions, anyone? I've easily seen more videos at conventions, this year, than I have downloaded. It would be ridiculous to not include those videos for us to nominate / vote for, simply because we didn't download it.

Just because we didn't download it doesn't mean we didn't see it ^^.

The sheer logic frightens me...

He makes a good point.
The best effects are the ones you don't notice.

So many videos.
So impossible to catch them all...

=[
No matter what you do,
Someone or something if gonna not get due justice/credit.

I guess we all have to try our best to the video's that ARE here, and not DQ'ed (even though somemay have been unfairly DQ'ed).

Well I said it should be an option to shorten the lists, not mandatory. But either way, something would need to be done to shorten these lists. I'm not voting for most of the categories because I'm too lazy to look through the titles of hundreds or thousands of videos, about 10 times :|

thats a pretty good idea ^_^, and thats the way i play it for the vca's right now. I dont just go on downloading rampages to check which is best during the vca's.

You can always go to your "my downloads" page and note down ones you want to nominate for the local ones.
