Results:  
The way I am going to do results is as follows:

I will make a separate post as a result post. On the first post, I will have the page numbers for all of the results for the divisions, the second post will have the 1A Prelim Results (being that the post will not be created until I have those results in). All other results will be posted periodically throughout the contest.

Thanks,  
-Zorro

Even Registration has been closed. However, if you would like to Judge, that does not close for a little while longer just to see if I can gain more judges.

Now, I am not judging 1A Prelims (possibly will judge Finals if I do not make it) but I thought I would just put in my thoughts on the judging. I did do myself, but I tried to do it as if it weren’t me. That’s when I realized that my performance is very low scoring. 😛

Here is what I have from the 9 that have already submitted videos. Did I do it right?

EDIT: This is in order of video submission, btw.

Seems like you filled it in correctly but some of the performance scores go a bit high(especially the music), the way I judge is that:

10 is better than the best I’ve seen in my life.  
9 is the best I’ve seen.  
8 is close to the best I’ve seen.  
7 veryvery good  
6 good  
5 fine  
4 okay  
3 hardly any effort  
2 bad  
1 horrible  
0 nothing.

Yes, but only if it’s necessary. I try to keep this is easy as I can, and then just means more work. Not trying to stop you, but please don’t.

😃 Welcome to the club. Might as well try though.

Everyone in:

1A Prelims: You have 3 days until the deadline to get your videos in.  
2A, 3A, Double Dragon Finals: You have 8 days until the deadline to get your videos in.  
4A, 5A Finals: You have 13 days until the deadline to get your videos in. Still plenty of time, but I thought an early notice would be helpful.

The ones in the 1A Prelims, however, need to speed up and get those videos in.
