Free op time, please read before posting links

I'll do some free ops for anyone who asks. Before people get too happy posting links there are some things you should know:

1) I view, and give, ops on the principle that they are designed to point out ways a creator can improve. I tend to not give high scores, I tend to dwell mostly on the negatives, and I tend to get detailed in my review. On average I'll watch a video 3 times before starting to write a single word and a couple times while I'm writing the review. What I'm trying to say is that I put time and effort into my ops and I do it so people can improve. My current stats are a usefulness of 468 (this is pulled down by a couple thieves that I left one line ops for) and my average score given is below global average in every catagory (again, pulled down by a couple thieves). If you just want high scores or validation in your belief that you're the greatest maker ever then you're going to be unpleasantly suprised.

2) I'll op anyone who asks but I find that my comments are most useful for relatively new creators who use Premiere. I don't know WMM or other editing programs and I'm not good enough to give advise to established creators.

3) Things I don't like: pure fight videos, drama centered around romance, a song slapped over a single semi-random scene, and DBZ/Naruto/linkin park/whatever the overused fad of the day is. I'll op them if asked but I won't like it and I doubt you will either. Eva is fine as long as it's not pure action. Things I do like: Comedy, dance, and above all else originality. I shouldn't have to say this but I will anyway, do not ask for an op if your video uses footage taken from someone elses video. Not only will I give you straight ones, I'll start a thread on the forums calling you a thief and I'll notify the original creator if possible.

4) I'm slow. If this goes like other free op threads have gone then I'll probably fall behind rather quickly. Because of this I'd appreciate it if people ask for only one of their videos. Don't be suprised if it takes me a long time or if I call off doing ops after a couple pages.

5) Please include the links directly to your video, I dislike having to dig through profiles for it. Links in sigs are fine. In case you don't know, if the link URL has "members_editvideo" in it then it's the wrong link and won't work.

6) I don't want anyone to feel obligated to op me in return. I'm not doing this to try and get more ops. If you want to that's fine but if not that's also fine.

The only opinion I've recieved for this video was a bit high (or maybe I'm just too self-critical), so I don't mind you killing it's average.

C.C.C.D.[\url] which is a attempt at a actiony character profile.

evil_ozzy_tab - What codec did you encode this with? I know what player you recommend but what codec was actually used? I can't get video out of anything except VirtualDub and that crashes halfway through. Unless I can get this issue worked out I'm unable to op the video, although the idea behind it sounds interesting.

Sousaphonist - Ops up. Nice job

bote - I'll take a look at it and get back to you after I get some sleep. At least it sounds like more than the typical fight video.
