My predictions mostly lie with the "big fish", whereas in a good half of the cases I'm actually cheering for the "little guy"; so I'm cautiously optimistic at most.
I think Whisper of the Beast will make quite a splash. I don't know if it'll get "the big one" here, but I can see it winning more than one for sure.
I do expect some personal disappointments in the less-mainstream categories though. And I'll be kinda sad one way or another for "Horror/Terror", because I've been split on it to the very end; and as much as I'd love Requiem for a Nightmare to get a VCA, I'd also very much like for Fynjy's awesome and awesomely-underrated work to be properly honored. And both of them have nominations in that category only... So I hope that at least one of them gets it.
It'd be nice to see them pop on and say "Here you go!"
I'm also rather split myself- a lot of the time I suspect I'm cheering for the little guy, though it's hard to judge because I'm not really immersed in the AMV scene- so much of it happens at the US cons. ><;;
Plus, so many vids were hard to judge for me. I was really caught between Greed vs Envy and Football for Humor, as well as all the Dramatic category entrants. I can't tell how many times I changed my mind...
I really hope Pianos gets recognized for Secret Waltz. That video just breaks me every time I watch it.
Hardest vote wise was probably the Dance category for me, because I a) was in it and din't want to vote for myself, and b) I'm not overly fond of MEPs as dance videos. *shrugs* But it's been talked to death in the Dacne thread anyway.
I really love how many videos I got to watch because of that that I would have otherwise missed. Kudos to EVERYONE.

I recall AD saying on the previous session of RDS radio that there might not be a runoff vote.

Well, since AD is probably not going to be on at this hour, we can only count on Phade suddenly appearing now, otherwise we'll only know tomorrow.
I'll hang around for a bit to see what happens, but I suggest most people just calm down and wait 'til morning (or whatever time of day you get in 10-12 hours from now...)

Ah.......so I'm not the only one gonna have a broken mouse button from all these clicks on refresh every other 5 minutes when available at the computer to see if winners are posted ;p
The suspense.... I think they are being evil and doing this on purpose to torture all those people that complained about categories and disqualifications and such

Come on guys and gals. Chill. More than likely it won't be posted till tomorrow morning at the earliest. Phade is probably sleep already and my bet is Ian is as well since it's what...5 a.m. over there? Go to bed
.
Regardless of who wins and
loses, it was fun and congratulations to
everyone involved.

Disregard this post. I literally clicked on the site right after posting and Phade just posted
.
