Well you're sort of right, Vlad's is MAD...MAD I SAY!!!!! :-P

BTW you guys suck. I am debating going to Otakon since Tim tells me a ton of you are gonna be out there.
Hmmm.. I ton you say...

Well..ok, 1 ton=2000 pounds and the avarage weight of a AMV creator is, say 160 pounds... so 2000/160 = 12.5

Thus your right, there whould be about 12.5 of us there :P

And yes, to qualify being an AMV creator you've got to be mad :P

Totally proved my point about your madness, although I found it hilarious :).

Mad? I guess that's why I'm not any good yet :). I think I need to get a mallet and just hit myself over the head a few times. You think that'll help me attain your skill/madness? :)

I guess I'll talk to Tim some time about Otakon since it's in August and I *may* have saved up vacation again by then (using up vacation for ACen). At least there's always AWA.

Will be at AWA as well.... BTW, you don't need a mallet, jut manipulate about 1000+ frames in a AMV and you too will go mad....

You left out the "individually, in Photoshop" part. ^_^
"If someone feels the need to 'express' himself or herself with a huge graphical 'singature' that has nothing to do with anything, that person should reevaluate his or her reasons for needing said form of expression, possibly with the help of a licensed mental health practitioner."

Eventhough I'm not going to be going as Markus this year I'll still have more of my stories at the con. After I finish the first 16 or so I may think about drawing a manga for them. This year I'm going as Gene Starwind. I can't wait graduation in 2 months regionals less then a month away for magic the gathering. That's all from gene starwind "You better get ready."

Hehehehe. Naw, there's no rule about how much you can win. :-) Why would we want to drive off the people who make the best AMVs?

The only restrictions we have about winning too much is the No Trolling rule.

Well, if Maddness is the key to creating good AMV's then I think I might just have it down (the madness part I mean). I think I actually might have made something good. The exact phrase that EVERYONE of my friends who watches it is....."It's Just Wrong". Now I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not, but it made me laugh like hell to hear it, but not in one of those sinister laugh kinda ways so I don't know.

I'll be there. My friends and I are driving there from Dallas in one shot! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Oh, the maddness.
When I become an Evil Overlord my Legions of Terror will be an equal-opportunity employer. Conversely, when it is prophesied that no man can defeat me, I will keep in mind the increasing number of non-traditional gender roles.

I am the King of the Easily Entertained.

It is my lifelong goal to make my dieing scream as horrible as possible.
