As Dinger has posted, I was the proud (and stunned) winner of 4 awards, to include the Tsunami Jones award. My many thanks to Dinger, the staff and the attendees that supported the AMV contest this year.

... and with that, I have to get a version uploaded for all of a-m-v.org to enjoy.

Also the reason there are 2 artistic awards, Oh Oh Oh Sexy Vampire was technically in the non competition exhibition category. I usually do not display their ID numbers on either the Title Slate or the Play List handed out. This year I forgot to do that, and well I will never penalize a video entry because I make a mistake. so Oficially because exhibition is non competition, Fate/Eternal Inferno won Artistic, BUT becauseI screwed up and more people voted for Oh Oh Oh Sexy Vampire (about 4 to 1) I fealt that in all fairness (and because I made a mistake) I would split the award, Both people will recieve a Glass Trophey category Award, I only had 1 so I sent it to the creator of Vampire, as I can get Roy 1 at a later date after a new 1 is ordered, I had enough of other prizes that both got the same amount of prizes but also got the same due any other winner (without diminishing any other winner's prize Pool)

sorry I couldn't resist

Congrats to all the winners, and all who participated. I had a great time chatting with you all again at the AMV Lunch/Dinner. You all really inspire me to do my best.

Honestly, I'm surprised the results list looks believable.

Finally made a video worthy of being called a comedy

... That's what happens when you hang around Doki Doki too long....

Congrats to all the winners, the contest was awesome and there were a lot of great videos this year! I happy Roy won the Tsunami Jones Award...

Very cool. Do they happen to give out placings beyond first? This is the first time I've actually had a video accepted into a contest and would like to know how well my video "Hand of Sorrow" did in the drama category. Any chance of finding out complete rankings?
