As much as I think it's a good idea to reward creative lyric sync though, I really doubt the value of such a mark - I mean, on the one hand, perhaps encouraging more lyric sync is not what we exactly need, mainly because I think it would result in spawning a hellstorm of cheesy, too-literal attempts to get it right. And on the other hand, the difficulties with judging it. Sometimes good lyric sync may go over my head entirely until I dig deeper, which some reviewers may not even bother with. Sometimes all I want in my video is partial lyric sync, or some non-literal lyric sync - but if it were a category like the optional 'effects' and 'lip-sync' ones, should I check 'lyric sync' in such a case or not? It would be reasonable to do it, but knowing that this may result in an undeservedly-low mark, I may be tempted not to, which sort of defeats the purpose of having such a rating for videos with lyrics.
What it seems like is a technical marking category for a subjective element. That could potentially result in a lot of confusion and bitterness, for those who take ops seriously...
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…
