This was an experiment more than anything else, and for people interested in seeing the results, it's uploaded to the org. In that sense, from the very beginning of the project, the point was never quality, but experimenting-which can go good or bad.

Ben, feel free to expand on that.
Actually, you more or less said it perfectly.

This was never intended to be MEP of Year, or something. The purpose of this project, as I said many times in the thread, is to force the editors involved to do something different, something they very well may have never tried before.

This isn't meant to get the people who don't like the project to all of a sudden like it. But you have to understand what kind of project this was meant to be. Which is why when the project receives an op that says, "I think the standards on a-m-v.org have really dropped recently and this doesn't help it", I get a little irked because that just shows that some people don't really get the goal of this project. If you watch this MEP the way you watch pretty much every other MEP on the .org, you're missing something.

IIRC, we didn't have a choice and had to use the audio exactly as it was given to us.

As for the project, I can't say I was expecting much, it was definitely an interesting concept, but not one that lends to 'omgawsm' tracks. As it's been said, there was good among the bad, and I'd like to point out that I absolutely hated my track and the song I got. :amv:

The "full" version of my track, if anyone really cares. Though there was only another 18 seconds of music at the end that wasn't in my segment. Not the best quality, but its there. :P
