A new video? Wow...hope you put it up after the contest :). I hated waiting so long for "I'll Stand by You" and AWA. By the way, nice grammar....unless you meant that :) (btw I'm only nitpicking b/c you seem to generally have good grammar).
Yep, funny how a few missplased letters can do..It should be "Probably my best".... We already knew I'm the best! :wink: :roll: :P ...Yea, right

Again..just nitpicking...:-P

As for the best...I'd say you'd have to take on some of the other "contenders" in an Iron Chef :). Surprised no con has asked you. I believe we need one for ACen (nudge nudge) :).

Poor Rozard, his thread has been hijacked :(

I will be attending JACON and would be interested in a conference call. Even if it just ends up being a lot of hyper/drunk AMV creators yelling at each other so no one understands a word it would still be a neat "first time" event.

I have a cell phone which has just about unlimited minutes on the weekend (starts Friday at 8:00 PM). It doesn't have a built in speaker function but it can plug into a headset so in theory it should be able to plug into a phone speaker system if we could dig one up. I will also have my iBook with me and I will have 56K dial up access in Orlando.

What would be really nice is a high speed connection at both locations but I wouldn't count on it.

I *may* have a laptop by then and if that's the case that would work real nicely. I am waiting since our (AMD) new thin-and-lights came out, but it doesn't have TV-out or Firewire built-in. I'm hoping they'll add it with the next itteration. I wouldn't rule out high-speed internet. A-kon is at a pretty large and reputable hotel facility. I'm not sure about JACON.

Yeah, that would definantly be something we need to find out. I don't know the hotel there at all (never stayed there), so if anyone was there last year (Vlad, maybe) if they could report on that? If not, maybe I could look for its web site, or call the hotel. Or, as another possibility, if someone living at UCF over the summer wouldn't mind housing a bunch of AMV creators in their room to make use of the connection :? Like I said earlier, I wanted to get this out here so it could be planned and such.

Yeah if we had a webcam on each end, this would make things REALLY easy. Too bad I don't have a webcam (or laptop just yet), but I'm sure someone has a webcam. If MJ is drunk enough maybe he'll get naked for y'all. O_o...let's hope not :)
