I kind of agree. I'd have preferred to vote the same time as the previous two weeks, don't see why it has to be monday...

Haha, 3 weeks to release all the videos doesn't seem much for me. But i'll remember this for the next time !

For contests like Akross that have a crapload of videos it's not so bad, but this 1 MAYBE 2 videos a day stuff that was done for this contest was like beating a dead horse. It seems as if people lost interest fast, as comments about videos and forum discussion pretty much did off quickly.

Having only a video or two a day made comparing them difficult; as a result I just waited until the end of the week and watched them all concurrently. That way I could have a good idea about which were the best in each category for the week.

A suggestion for next time would be for the judges to group the videos by category and show all of each category together over a period of a few days, then allow voting on that category.

That would add an enormous amount of work to the judges. At first i wanted to people choose themselves their categories, but it would have been troublesome to change the form of the actual website xD. So yeah, this time it was the only solution I had. But anyway, it would have been boring and annoying to watch 15 or 20 action videos in the same week.

edit: and the last video has been posted, and i sent the from \o/

Submitted the last form. Now's the part where I try to guess who did what, (excluding, shall we say, the "obvious" answers):

xDreww - Inside the Opened
[madaraxD] - Espejismo
Michael Hudak - Naruto's Revenge

Having people pick the category of their videos work too; regardless, I would rather have watched all the action videos together so I could more accurately judge which is the best action video, instead of having issues like we discussed earlier in the thread where a good video against stiff competition gets rated worse than a mediocre video in a dry week.
