Non-life-threatening purposes involving a meeting with some guys I know there. The same reason some people meet in libraries and such.

With enough tough love, we can make these people learn. But not with constructive criticism. Rather, with harsh, threatening criticism bordering on harassment. We can weed out the kids that way and keep the strong ones. I've already given most people their two strikes, and my system has no third, so the floodgates are open anyway. It shall be glorious once you and I get to that.

Depends. We may have a bunch of new people signing up, but I get this negative feeling that they'll only be here to ask where AMV Hell 6 is and won't really want to discuss anything beyond that. Of course, that could just be my pessimism shinning through.

So how much you wanna bet that this big announcement has nothing to do with AMV Hell 6. Or it's about AMV Hell 6 being cancelled. Personally I think the chance of either of those is low, but it certainly would be hilarious if it was. Also, I'm sorry, but why on earth did you announce you were gonna make an announcement, two days before your announcement. Couldn't you have just waited two days and then told us the big news? Or made the big announcement already? The news can't have been too big because otherwise you would have announced it earlier. But I digress.

I choose to believe that following the public exhibition at AWA a consortium of studios approached Zarxrax and SSGWNBTD, expressing interest in franchising AMV Hell as a marketing tool. The long delay has been because SSGWNBTD has been negotiating the contract, and the announcement is that any editor who's ever been published in the Minis or the Hells is about to receive a royalty cheque... :)

Were there any games really worth playing in it? I never bothered trying it out. If anything, I'd like the video directory back so whores would stop coming here just to make a thread for their grimdark Naruto and Fairy Tail AMVs.

Arcade could be as fun as it's made to be. (scores, rankings, tournaments, etc.)
Only thing about the video directory is that it still may not be compatible with vB 4.0, which is the reason it was dumped in the first place.

Honestly, I think adding anything new to the site would be interesting.
