Here it is, guys, the first ever, and totally awesome.... VIDEO CONTEST!
I may be a little bit late updating the lists, semifinals, and other stuff because of life, etc, but I will update everything ASAP.


RULES AND OTHER STUFF

Suggesting

 Exclamation Anybody can join this lovable old contest! Very Happy
 Arrow You must suggest 2 videos that you absolutely love. Razz They don't have to be music videos. You can suggest videos that have appeared in the Music Contest.

 Exclamation Exclamation The videos you suggest shouldn't be much longer than 5 minutes, although there are exceptions if you really like it and want it there.
And don't post things like, part 1 of show, part 2 of show, etc... To fill up your suggestions.
Mostly, the point of this is to suggest short enough videos that are funny to you, or really dramatic, or nice videos that you just WANT to suggest! So don't abuse these simple little rules.

Arrow When suggesting, your post should look about like this:
  • Artist/person (optional)
  • Flag of country artist/person is from (optional)
  • Song/Video name
  • Reason for suggesting
  • Link to video. Try to use YouTube, but if the video you're suggesting is somewhere else, then it's okay.. Smile
Arrow Your suggestions will be shuffled between each semifinal, so the order you suggest them in matters not. Wink Additionally, you CAN tell me if you want them in a particular order. Wink

Voting

 Arrow Anyone can vote, whether they suggested or not.
 Exclamation If you are a suggester and you vote, then your suggestion in that round will get an extra 7 points. (Same as a first place vote)
 Arrow You will send your votes via PMs or any IM that you can reach me on, or on IRC.
 Arrow Vote by sending your top 5 videos, sorted.
 Arrow Additionally, you can give 1 point to as many videos as you want.
 Arrow  The videos get points from you according to this key:
7-5-3-2-1[-1-1...] (+7 points for the video you suggested)

 KABOOM! Don't vote for your own suggestions.

RULES:

 Arrow At the end of every semifinal, the top 3 videos in that round will advance to the finals.
 Arrow The winner of the VC is the video with the most points in the finals.
 Arrow The positions are determined by total amount of points.

 Arrow Tie breaking rules:
 Arrow - In case two or more videos have the same amount of points, the video with the highest rank from a voter wins.
 Arrow - If the highest rank is the same, the video with higher second best rank wins. This process repeats as long as the ranks are identical.
 Arrow - If all the ranks are identical, the videos end in a tie.
 Arrow - In case of a tie, all tied videos get the privileges that belong to the place they tied at.

 Tweep! At the end of Semifinal 2, the suggester with the most points overall will get to pick a 'wildcard' video, that didn't make it to the finals, but he/she would like to see there. He/she will send their pick to me after I announce the results from Semifinal 2.

Any comments or questions, feel free to ask.

Schedule

 Hungry? I will not give someone extra time to suggest or vote.

 Hungry? Each round will last for 6 days. You will have 7 days from today to suggest.

Hungry? Suggestions: June 29 till July 7
 Hungry? Semifinal 1: July 8 till July 14

Tough! I originally thought it's supposed to be a music video contest. Then my suggestions would be clear. But this definition is too broad to pick from. Give me more time to pikc my entries Laughing

Still, I don't see how do you want to do other things than life Razz

Me and Stipe figured it best to only do 2 semifinals.
But you'll find something. Smile

I didn't have much problems while picking my entries. Although I favorized only 47 videos on YouTube, I still think that I have 2 good entries. Smile
So, here we go! Very Happy


Rhett and Link - T-shirt war!
Arrow LINK
Arrow Rhett and Link are two friends that are popular in "Youtube world", as they create and upload videos very often and are in touch with other YouTube celebrities. This is probably one of their biggest projects that they have been working of - and it seems like their best hit, too!
I personally got tired of these people who seem to create videos only "to fill up space and get some use for it". Still, this video is a rare goodie from people like these. Wink

Kasou Taishou - The reason she got mad at me
Arrow LINK
Arrow "Kasou Taishou" is a Japanese TV show in which a group of people get to create their own show using special effects that are barely seen in the rest of the world (as you will see). Each presentation gets rated with points from 0 to 20, as there are 10 judges in the studio and each one rates from 0 to 2.
This is my favorite performance from that show and therefore it deserves a place here. Wink


So, there you go! Smile
If this was created for Croats, I'd most likely enter very popular national hit "Korijen iz 2" (Square root of 2). But, you wouldn't get it. Razz

No idea what kind of videos should this be. Funny? Enjoyable? Music videos? No idea... I could pick anything, so I started by picking a theme. And for me it is... The internets! That means flash movies.


Bruno Bozzetto - Yes & No
 Arrow LINK
 Arrow Instructions for drivers with practical examples. By the words of the author, "Show me how you drive and I'll tell you what kind of idiot you are."
Internet classic that has been around since forever. It's entertaining everytime I watch it Smile

Weebl - Badgers
 Arrow LINK
 Arrow Badgers, mushrooms, snakes and ladders. Actually, I made the last one up. There are no ladders involved.
Internet classic that brings infinite... You know what Razz



Still, no idea whatsoever how should I rank the other vids. Somehow, I think that the countries with most voters will also get most votes...

John, basically.. You just pick 2 videos that you personally love. Whether they're humorous, dramatic, or an action scene from a movie. Then it's up to the voters to decide what gets first place, 2nd, 3rd, etc.
The votes shouldn't be biased by the voters liking drama videos better than comedy, but if the voter chooses that, it's their own choice. Wink

Anyway, great entries so far.
I loved that driving thing, JB. Razz
That T-Shirt war was great, Stipe, also. Smile
