Cuz they suck. :P Lol, just kidding dude. But hopefully that Kai Doh Maru one will turn out well.

I hate that friggin star system.

I get like 2.90 on my vids, yet when i get opinions i get 8 and higher.

my best is my Samurai X video Remember with over 200 stars and a 3.72 rating.

my worse is my DBZ #18 vid with 20 stars and a 2.75 average, though in the opinions people said i had a good idea along with some decent edting(one of my noobie videos)

ditto, but twas a beauty

yeah, i haven't uploaded my other videos, not because they suck, but because they don't exist

i tried to get phade to remove them, but since i'm still planning on making them, he told me to just leave the profile and upload them when they are done :? i see the logic behind it, but it still sucks since i've forced myself to do something i like :x

currently working on either getting (started with) either Kai Doh Maru (good thing i haven't already made a profile for this one), Ghost in the Shell, or X the movie video, only because those are movies and will be either to get footage for first :P
If you're reading this, you've gone too far...PREPARE FOR RETRIBUTION!!

I tend to use the star system to rate technical merit, rather than watchability....so I guess I'm kind of the opposite of everyone else...

5 stars: I have no idea how this video was made. The technical aspects of it's creation stun me. The concept, timing, and editing are tighter than a snare-drum head. Example video: Demonlighter's Live Again, a highly underrated video.

4 stars: An excellent video. I could reproduce it with a month or so of solid work. Complex editing techniques, solid concept and story, etc. I give a lot of 4s, mostly because I tend to gravitate to the better creators or more hyped videos. Example video: Murf's Inside Dungeons And Dragons, which is funny and excellent, but not 'perfect'. Nitpicky, I know.

3 stars: A 'normal' video. Something I'd come up with. Not terribly original, not terribly complicated, just a solid video. Example: Vanetz's No Brakes, which I find entertaining, though it's not a technically excellent video.

2 stars: A so-so video. It still gets it's point across, but barely. Bad scene choices, bad source, etc. Example (and I'm not trying to 'single out' your video, here, you have better ones): ReannaKing's Hi-ho, Trogdor! video, which has a good concept, but terrible source footage detracts too greatly to give it a 3.

1 star: Terrible. I've only given five 1s. I refuse to give an example, to save the .org the pain I went through. :)

well, for me, star rating = (overall impression + reviewable) / 2
