Best Use of Special Effects

[Malificus]

The topic is "Forum rules", not "a-m-v.org rules".

Ok - I just checked.. those rules are agreed upon on the first page of setting up an account as well. Ergo they are site rules. There is no difference between your forum account and your site account... they are the same thing.

Plus it's right there in the qualification page

Other disqualifying conditions. These will not be enforced automatically. However, if during the course of the contest you are found to have broken one of these rules, then you may be disqualified from entering and voting. As before, please use the delete form to remove incorrect video entries.

You must have one and only one membership account.
A video must have one and only one catalog entry.
You must have personally created (or helped in creating) all of the videos in your profile.

Let's finish this offtop!

All right. If You think that we're not eligible or something like that to participate, then we recall Spoil from VCA. Thanks for your empathy and understanding. We were simply glad to find out these rules couple of days ago. But I'll ask you to think about one thing, which is - Will VCA really have benefit from our DQ?..

Good luck to all other participants

I've got one question which is bothering me the most...
I hope you'll help to clear things out for me...

It is said in the rules:

You must have one and only one membership account.
A video must have one and only one catalog entry.
You must have personally created (or helped in creating) all of the videos in your profile.

Again and again I'm asking myself - So what? What does it have to do with SVS and Spoil?
You simply cannot sense the difference between MEP and STUDIO work. But there is...MEP is created with people who may know each other, but they do not work on AMVs together, they do not share knowledge...they have their parts...Studio work UNITES all of the studio members. Putting aside this aspect, I'd like to mention that studio work is ONE unique video, not just parts gathered together...and MEPs are like scrappy blankets...So, again, putting aside even this one, I still don't get WHY you wish to DQ SPoil so badly. If it violates the rules, then show me how...

SVS is the only account for this video. Video has One entry. Studio has personally created the video.

Maybe you should go and award members of the music bands separately with the prizes, not the whole team, which worked hard to achieve that goal...

That´s sad. It´s not like they´re trying to troll or something similar. If you really disqualify Spoil because of such things than it´s really really mean.

Just that nobody says that I´m a hypocrit that changes his opinion every minute: My comment above is build on the maybe wrong point that collabs or MEPs can only win the Best Collaborative Video award. Just to clarify ok?

There's a reason the website has a collab option in the database. Why use a new account when you can simply add the names of all participants to the video?

It's circumventing a rule and compromising the intention of the database to keep everything organized. No wonder the main site event discourages this.

I don't think it's a crime or anything, but it should've been done in a way that follows a database rules.

(^might not be a winner, but at least worth a look, definitely unique. :3 )

-----
These two are different versions of the same vid, one with lyrics/translation, one without. The editor recommends the one with lyrics simply because the original had slightly bright footage, but on my computer it's not that bad, and the resolution's better on the original, so take your pick.

[Kevmaster]

Wow, that rule with the multiple account is really really stupid

Right Now there are at least 4 other editors that came in my mind that would get disqualified by that rule (possibly more).



And I don't really get the sense of that rule..may someone explain it to me?

[Bauzi]

If you have a database system you would like to avoid "redudant" information. I see a really good sense in this rule, because without it you could exploit so many functions of this site.
