In fact once it’s “People’s Champion” time, I will be encouraging everyone on here to watch all the videos. They’re all epic and it’s great to get to know a bit more about some of the members on here. 🙂 ---

They’re all epic and it’s great to get to know a bit more about some of the members on here. 🙂 I just hope when it comes time for everyone in the forums to vote, that they vote on everyone answers, and not their skills in yo-yoing or video editing. Hopefully we can keep it all about the answers, and everyone story. ---

> [@Gomel](#): > > I understand. I think mine sucks too or at least my tricks definitely are. It’s not about the tricks, or how good the video editing… Did anyone actually pay attention to the video?. Lol this is a contest on your answer to their question. Not who had the best yoyo skills or editing skills. It’s about true answers to why do you yoyo.. Which is why I posted above saying that i really hope when it comes time for the forum as a whole to vote. They vote based on the answers. Not who did the best or most tricks. Or who’s editing was better. And please lets not make it a popularity contest. Keep it all about the answer to the question. ---

> [@Mandiz](#): > > where can we see the other videos? I’m going to keep the videos mostly under wraps during the judging process, then after the results have been announced, all the videos will be released and people will be able to vote on their favourite (discounting the ones that have already scored prizes). 🙂 That being said, some people have posted their videos here and they’re more than welcome to, but I thought it best to wait for the big reveal until after results have been posted to keep the suspense up. :wink: ---

> [@Gambit](#): > > Sounds about right. Ideally I don’t want people making their videos over 3 minutes long, but if you’ve tried your best to fit it in and there’s genuinely no way that you can make it under 3 minutes without detracting from the video somehow, then I’m willing to allow it. > > “My video is 2:53, I have another thing I can add in but if I put it in it’ll be 3:15” - Not Ok > > “I’ve concise-d my life story as much as possible, but it’s still 3:10 and if I cut anything out it won’t make sense” - Ok > > The time rule isn’t as huge of an issue now since we haven’t had as many submissions as I thought we were. Still, 3 minutes is ideal and I’d rather people not take advantage of the flexibility allowed. ;D I got everything in for exactly about 3 minutes and one second. Is that okay? 😛 I could have made it longer, but I felt like that would be taking advantage of the flexibility so I didn’t. Good to not push your luck sometimes 🙂 ---
