How were the other screenings?

I heard the audio on my video was too low and 7 whole people clapped for it

Actually, it wasn't definite. I was told that Vic's Noir video only lost by 6 or 7 votes.

That also won at Akon, I remember.

I'd hate to see it come that close in a audience vote. That's like, I had more friends here than you did close.

So otakon doesn't do best of show?

"let's see...glory of love, the trigun superman video, the top gun one... it's tricky, and lollipops, sunshine and rrrRRRrrr...or whatever its called"

Which would mean DWChang, dokidoki, BogoSort, .Skyfire and Grover should be happy.

So my guesses are:

Best Sentimental:
DWChang - Glory of Love - Escaflowne

Best Drama:
Grover - Searching

Best Action:
.Skyfire - The Need For Speed - Macross Plus et al

Best Upbeat:
BogoSort - It's tricky to make a music video - Various

Best Comedy:
Dokidoki - Lolipops Sunshine and rrrrrRRRRrrr - Card Captor Sakura

I can't swear by the categories though. Nor is this in any way official

Sorry about not posting that. I didn't want to say anything until some runner-ups were announced.

Damn Video Room 1 and its horrible audio balance! My dad took us back to the hotel at midnight on Friday night, only halfway through the contest screening in the main events room, and my vid was in the comedy category, so we didn't get to see it. So, we had to come to the second showing in Video 1 on Saturday afternoon, but there wasn't enough freaking treble for us to actually be able to HEAR THE WORDS.

And my vid isn't very funny if you can't hear the words.
