woowww congrats paul!! XD (and ppl! ^_^)

For what it's worth, you had my vote in Drama (or would have if I remembered to turn in my ballot ). You got hosed, IMHO.

I plan on writing a very wordy review/critique of the contest to kill time before my flight, I'll probably post it when I get back to Tokyo in a day. Overall, this has to be the first contest where I'm satisfied with almost all of the winners in a looooong time (despite some hit or miss quality of the contest itself). So, congrats to everyone who won, almost everyone who made the finals, and see y'all in 11 months

I loved this contest so much. I'll upload later on.


EDIT: uploaded

[Dragon/Roy]

[Greggus1]

It seems Bashar used Kirikirimai, which makes his AMV my most anticipated evar.

[Heero_Yuy84]

Well...I half-guessed right *was betting on 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' to take Best Fun/Upbeat/Other*

Although taking best in show beats the ever-loving Hell out of that...it definitely earned it.

Congrats to all the winners...

...now if you'll excuse me, I have some downloading to do...

[Nekoyoukai]

Yes congrats to all the winners...even though jade_eyed_angel's video shoud have won XD
We'll blame Dokool since he forgot to turn in his ballot
