Just watched the version you posted on YT (visually cool) and I would say highly doubtful... IMHO based on DQs. Unless you have a uber mosaic version.

It's cleaner than "Reform School Girls"...

In terms of visuals, perhaps. In terms of context, that's open to debate. :P

Seems like subjective ratings... If it is not PG-13 then is it an R? Is there anything in it constituting an R? I get it... Still you might as well say fanservice outside of PG is unacceptable.

Indeed, it's subjective. What might be a PG-13 to you might be an R to me [or in your case, an X]. :P
I still think you've made it a personal mission to get me killed by some angry parent...

Though because it's so subjective, that's why I'm only 1/3rd of the team that makes the judgement call.

When the staff originally DQ'd Jimmy's video at MTAC I asked them point blank is it an R? They said no and allowed it in the contest... I was really happy for him when it won.

I just think when you use terms like PG-13 unless you say it is completely subjective people will assume it is in line with the MPAA ratings. At which point why use PG-13 if it wildly differs from what is accepted as the norm.

If we take Sophia to a PG-13 movie like the Martian did we bitch out the theater because of the foul language in the movie lol...

I expected Reform Girls to get DQ... So I am not all that surprised lol. I just don't like it when contests use the PG-13 term which last I check is a MPAA term and the ratings don't correspond with those ratings.

I am completely fine if a contest says when it comes to fanservice is has to be PG...

Lol... we're no-where near PG, and there's plenty of fanservice, let me tell you. The line is drawn when the context crosses into the realm of vulgarity and porn though.
