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.

  • 10.04.2006 9:24 PM PDT

Wow, a whole hundred dollars to charity. Now Unicef can buy a sock.

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.

Money is cool. A good tool, but for me it was the free trip to the Bungie store. We aren't talking about just dropping the prize. We as the Bungie community are coming together to solve a problem and by giving the prize money to a worthy cause. We solve the prize problem, fairly. $100 is a $100 more than what was available before. We resolve to help ourselves by helping others. In this fasion we are all winners.
How did I stack up ? With out an official judge pool. The true judgement would be for you to be honest with your self and ask. Where do I stand against the others? For entertainment value, since the prize money would no longer be an issue, some body had mentioned a popular opinion poll. Perhaps keeping votes open to only people who sign into Bungie. This may help to keep the voting fair. Two polls would be interesting. One for B Net members and one for the general public. Having a contestant only poll might work if you are not allowed to vote for yourself.
From my point of view. Many of the entries are fantastic. Some telling the story. Some telling of whats to come. Some showing the pure fun of the game.

We could just split the decision 50 - 50.

50% goes to an open poll and the voting starts...and the other 50 will be the decision of the judges. I bet we could get a mod or two and a member or two who have not submited videos to go and take a look at a couple of videos in their spare time.

Cmon guys. We can start a poll for the members and ask KP to pwetty, pwease, make an announcement on b.net page and HBO to attract more votes.

This should work and it will give a judge time to watch/judge while the community does their part. I really want the results in...even though I know I am not going to win there is still a chance and I bet we all feel the same.

Problem with the poll is, polls are what the people like most (ususally senseless montages) and take nothing that has to deal with other cinematic elements in to account. A few videos are great but I fear no one will vote for them because they don't show stuff blowing up. Judges can take into account the proper elements in a video. Its like MTV movie awards verses the Academy.

"It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."

Well why not all of the people that posted their video judge everyone elses on a scale from 1-5 (include 1.5, 2.35, etc), with 5 being the absolute best? It'll take time for everyone, yeah, but I'd do it. We would have to set a date on when the numbers are to be in. Then someone (Senor Leche?) looks at all of the numbers and puts them together, and whoever has the highest number wins. How's that?

  • 10.08.2006 6:48 PM PDT

Ok, this is official so consider it the final word:

I have been talking to Senor Leche this past week and he has decided to go ahead and pass judgment on the videos. He is, as we speak, at a wedding and will not be back until Tuesday. However, when he does return, he will post the OFFICIAL RESULTS and winners.

He's the one dishing out the money so I think it only fair that he be the one to decide who it goes to.

Try to hang in there for a couple more days and this will all be over with soon enough.
