This was the first one I did. I used basically the same rules/guidelines that the tournament is using. I listed six possible sources, numbered them, then asked my mother to pick a number between 1 and 6 (without showing her the list). I then sent her off with our considerable pile of CDs to pick a song. Once I had the clips prepared, she told me the song, and I started editing 20 minutes later.
I followed the same rules as the tournament again for the most part, except that I chose my source this time. I'd just finished watching Munto and didn't feel like editing with anything else. I did stick to the '5 consecutive episodes' rule though (I used 5-9) and I didn't know the song until 20 minutes before I started editing.
Speaking of the song... my mother decided to choose the most hideous song in our collection. It turned out to hilarious to edit to though, as well as not as hard as I'd thought. In fact, I originally had the song cut to 1:15, thinking that even that long might be pushing my luck, but an hour into editing I'd finished and even edited it a little. So, instead of stopping early, I added another 0:45 seconds to it. I still finished 10 minutes early.
The title is because my mother reminded me that yesterday was Friday the 13th, and considering the song, I thought it was fitting.
