AMV Hell 4 Crap Quotient Calculation Worksheet
Add 1 point for each box you mark, then divide by Pi. The higher your score, the less likely that your video will appear in the project. If your score is greater than 1, there is probably no hope at all.

[ ] You didn't read the rules before submitting your video.
[ ] You used uncompressed video, instead of at least compressing to HuffYUV.
[ ] You didn't convert your song to WAV before importing it into your editing software.
[ ] You submitted something other than a comedy video.
[ ] You submitted a video with mp3 compressed audio.
[ ] Your video had the audio downsampled to 32khz or lower.
[ ] Your video had mono audio.
[ ] You compressed your video to Cinepak.
[ ] Your video had a divx logo.
[ ] Your video had "HuffYUV LSD Rainbows".
[ ] Your video had "popframes".
[ ] You didn't actually watch your video after you exported it.
[ ] I told you to fix a certain problem, and you resubmitted the video without fixing it.
[ ] Your upload didn't complete.
[ ] ...and you never completed it.
[ ] You used an idea that had been done before...
[ ] ...in a previous AMV Hell.
[ ] You used downloaded footage...
[ ] ...That was captured from tv...
[ ] ...and had a network logo on it.
[ ] Your footage had subtitles...
[ ] ...and you tried to crop them off...
[ ] ...and missed.
[ ] Your video was in WMV format...
[ ] ...before you converted it to AVI.
[ ] Your footage was captured from boochsack...
[ ] ...using screen recording software...
[ ] ...and your mouse cursor was in the shot.
[ ] Your video was in the wrong aspect ratio.
[ ] Your videos resolution was < 640 pixels across...
[ ] ...and it was <= 320 pixels across.
[ ] Your video's framerate was < 23.976 fps
[ ] ...it was < 12 fps
[ ] Your video was longer than 30 seconds...
[ ] ...it was longer than 3 minutes.
[ ] You knew your video sucked, and you submitted it anyway.
What if other members thought it was funny?

All I have to say is that comedy is like jazz. If you have to have it explained to you, you don't get it.

The song and clips are about lasers. I don't see wat explaing needs to be done.

Yes, I'm aware of what your clip is about as you've mentioned it several times now in this thread.

I was referring to the comedy in Zarxrax's post, not your own.

The song is called God's pink Laser and the lyrics have to do with lasers.
But thanks for the review, though.

"mouse cursor on it" ftw... did that actually happen?

If it did, I think that should be included in the intro for AMV Hell 4---the comedic value is priceless.

Bonus points if the cursor moves around.

That's what I've been saying to my brother. There's too many submissions to just be put to waste.
