Project Editor II : [Round 2] [Update: Page 130]

[Vivaldi]

Well, this is just about the biggest "fuck you" I've ever gotten from a coordinator. Though I'm not sure whether I'm more mad at that or the assholes that apperantly have such little in their lives they felt the need to spam code hate mail.


All I know is that the fact is, PE without the mep is just a glorified iron chef. I don't come every week to see who kicked my ass on a set of numerical brackets. I come to see what everybody made that kicked my ass. how they interpreted the theme, how they executed. Heck, even to activally measure myself against them. What's this based off, project runway? They don't give the challenge, say who won, and end the show. they show you who won. To not only change the setup, which could be understandable for pressure reasons. But to arbitrarily forgo a round that's already near completion? I've been led on, waiting over a month without saying a damn word under the understanding that it will get finished given its due time. And now you're telling me it's not just because you've decided you have better things to do?

You started this code. If you don't have the time\patience to deal with it, you get the help of someone who can, not flip off the 21 some odd people who have devoted a large portion of their time and expectations to you

The first project editor died when the compilations stopped. I don't expect any better of this.

I resemble that remark.

Project Editor II: Round 1 = Project Editor 1: Round 2?

@Vivaldi:

Yeah it is sad and I'm sry for you if you stayed friendly and not nasty all the time, because: The rest of us surely deserved it. I wanted to see everybody else work too.

We still can publish the videos on the tube or here in the catalog. I'll upload my round 1 track now on the tube.

Edit:
There it is. The quality can suck my... It even added interlacing. UGH!

I think I'll make an org upload too

We could announce our amvs of the first round in one thread if some more people uploaded them here

Anywhere here is my vid:

(it's scary how much clicks I got just with announcing it on the journals 5 minutes ago )

Hey.
Code said that the vids will be put together in a zip, or a bunch of 'em, and uploaded and linked like that, much like judges get them.
You're going to see 'em vids.

[Nya-chan Production]

Yay, interesting stuff happens again!

And that's why I love P:E

Seriously going for some prizes, guys ^^

Honestly, for me P:E was a competition from the start. The MEP thing (compilations) was just a nice bonus to see the results in one place, so as long as we get the zips all is fine with me. And I'll release my round results no matter how bad they are anyway.
I am seriously considering helping Code with the stuff the next year (as I was ready to organize P:E this year if he hadn't stood up to it), but I'll see if it'll be needed.
And i do agree with godix - this year, there were even no lower limits.You could've just pasted ten seconds straight on timeline to random music and be done with it. It's kind of sad when some of you put up an excuse about personal life and then in a day or two release a vid or participate in another MEP (you know who you are). With this, I'd also like to thank to anyone and everyone who has kept up with us so far. Hope to see the start of r3 (and results of r2) as soon as possible.

That said, I shall get back to whatever nothing I was doing before I started writing this post.
Suckers.

[NS]

simple thing is most of you are assholes. Whether you thought you were just kidding or not you just would NOT stop harassing code about one thing or the other and In other cases were completely just taking advantage of him "CtS". I am not surprised by his decision. If I was heading this mep I would have said "fuck you guys" in a much more drawn out and angry way long ago.

[Emotive]

Um.. What the hell happened?

Whatever it is that caused it, I'm not for this change. That's like converting it from PvE to PvP. And I'm a PvE player unless it's iron chef.

Though in all seriousness, this sucks. It's always been more about the compilation than anything else for me, ever since I watched project editor 1/round 1 where you could see people trying to describe themselves in a short video, successfuly or not. It's really losing its charm now, and I wasn't going for the win in the first place as you might have noticed in round 2 anyway..

And "NS", "taking advantage of him"? What the shit?

/rage

[Emotive]

Well also got to explain my own attitude as it must have been seen as pretty annoying from a certain perspective.

First of all I just recently got my new PC after moving, and I got working internet 2 days ago. I've been adapting in my new appartment, my new town, living alone, university, meeting people, all this real life faggotry - I had no time (like really, no time) to edit, and neither motivation. So as:
a) I did have the opportunity to delay,
b) Code seemed to still be working on previous compilations anyway (which meant I wasn't delaying something other than the judging, and waiting does add to the fun with anxiety),
c) I wanted to edit something interesting and fun to watch rather than throw something together to get to round 3 and
d) I didn't care about my score dropping as I'm not in it for the prize but for participating in the final compilations in an at least fun way, I decided to take that given opportunity and delay it until I could make something semi-decent. And yes I would make something, I was actually even writing down some ideas yesterday night/this morning to get motivated to work on it - and my goal when making it, as it'd have a majorly dropped score anyway, would be to entertain with it.

So well as this has grown sort of pointless for me now I guess I'll drop, though I'll reconsider things after taking a rest and let you know if my final decision changes tomorrow. After all this is now just a contest I can't win, ain't it?

what the shit you guys made me go all serious, it does feel uncomfortable. ):
