Well I would like to have the money, but if we decide to drop the money that is alright to.
-
ok, we have no official judges left, whitch leaves us the options of senor leche judging or droping the contest completely. at this point i don't think anyone cares about cash, although i could be wrong. i just want to see who the winners are, so lets see if we can get senor leche to judge this, and then we can burn this forum like a ninja on fire.
-
Wow, a whole hundred dollars to charity. Now Unicef can buy a sock.
-
i agree...I'd like to know how I did in comparison to everyone else, but we could be real generous and give the prize money to world vision or something like that. that'd be cool.
-
seriously, word, but i still would like places announced
-
I say , all of the entries agree to have the prize money donated to a free food store, in the contestant's names, and put to rest this delema..
-
whadda you say we plit up the 100 dollars total between everyone so everbody can save like a dollar.
-
lol...we could just make things a whole lot simpler and give me the 50$...we don't need Gnome to do that, do we? :)

No his nextdoor neighbor's dog carried him off and put him in a hole.

I think Gnome musta fell off the face of the Earth or something. Hmm, might as well start getting imp and Leche to judge or something.

I... don't know. *Goes and finds* [url=http://www.difm.net/cnc/audio/worstpirate.mp3]Here's[/url] the link I found to it on the international talk like a pirate day website. I assume it's legal, or else he wouldn't be giving us links to it. I'll try to get it finished. Right now [url=http://media.putfile.com/lollylops-21]this[/url] is as far as I've gotten. I'll probably cut it off within the next 10 seconds, because the rest of the song doesn't suit the meaning (Well, it could. But I'm too lazy to do it all.) EDIT: Oops.

But then again, you could be Teh U00b3R sneaky and post it at the same address.

For-reals. People would manipulate the poll on their favor. The polls are just meant for fun, no one can take them seriously because they're so easy to manipulate. That's why Bungie never looks at the polls, no matter how many votes there are.
-
Not a bad idea, but i fear, if we did the poll thing for judging of the last video, ther'd be too many people screwing with the results just for the heck of it.
-
Arrrg..... Why don't we have someone who made a video and who volunteered judge all of them but his or her own, and give them ratings out of 10 or something. (Then... set up a poll for the rating of the volunteer's vid?) Then the top few can be put in round 2 and because it is such a small workedload one of the judges might be able to finish it from there. Just throwing it out there... heck, it might even get things moving! :D Btw, thanks for making an updated list. PS: 5th post EVER.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Cybiotik [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Cybiotik Maybe the mods can judge ? >_> <_< [/quote] Never mind...mods are too buisy keeping spam of forums.[/quote] Yeah, see post above for more details. It won't be judged for a while anyway.
