[Sir Fluffykins]

Not sure whether to vote for the one I feel was put together better, or the one that actually made me chuckle.

[thedarkmessenger]

Don't need to rewatch them to know which one I'm voting for. Stood out pretty well.

[MarkSoupial]

Who let this happen?

[milleniummaster18]

I did.

You're welcome.

[jinzo64]

The community let this happen.

you have my vote

[pzykosiz]

any chance we can get the rest of the results, or will that be revealed after this has settled?

[Cangelosi]

Vote. Print. Done.

[Magus00]

Once more, I voted and did my part.

[Zarxrax]

any chance we can get the rest of the results, or will that be revealed after this has settled?

I will reveal the full results later. I didn't want them to possibly influence the final voting.
And interestingly enough, the video that is in the lead right now is not the same video that was in the lead in the nomination voting. But we will see how it all pans out as the week progresses.

[pzykosiz]

that's cool

[SilentChaz]

I take issue with that Howl’s Moving Castle/College Humor clip in Abaddon.

Useless you were responsible for the animation personally, Mark, what you've done is little more than outright theft.

>pointing out theft in a conclusion of a grand chineese cartoon heist.

[MarkSoupial]

outright theft

This is exactly why I try to avoid using a source that's already funny by itself

[Janos99]

What is the anime in [Woy] Petites Vidéomations - uncharted time 1:53 and 11:21 called?

Useless you were responsible…
Allah almighty, that’s the worst spelling mistake I’ve ever made. I'm sorry.

Thursday 27th, I see 35 votes tallied so far…

PS: Voted

[itschickenscratch]

It all comes down to these 39 voters. How many did we have originally?

you mean in the nominations poll? 80. We had 80. .....so we have about half this time around.

If only there was some magical way to go ahead and look at the vote count of a poll; but alas, such complicated mechanisms do not exist.

Oh well, guess we can always get a bitch to tell us, eh?

Sorry I didn't have to time to check when I posted that, your-royal-****ing-highness. No reason to have that stick up your ass over a simple question.

[milleniummaster18]

You're telling me you didn't have a moment to check on a poll result, but you did have one to post a comment asking about it, and yet another one to be a twat about not having time to check on it? Something doesn't add up here, does it?

I guess this one's on me for expecting better from the guy who's known for making half-assed jobs.

I'm not sure how I'm known for that? That might just be your own opinion? But okay whatever you say. Anyhow, I didn't have time originally to go look at that because I was on my phone and I was just making a simple post. The second time I was actually at my PC and by then the question was already answered, so I don't think you can even bring that up as an argument. I didn't ask for you to jump up and put your own 2 cents in, and that's all I was saying in the second post. It just seemed unnecessary, man.

[milleniummaster18]

Welcome to life, mate. We all get lip, even if we're not asking for it.

[Zarxrax]

And it's time to announce the winners!

By popular vote, the people have selected "AMV_24-7" as the best video. It came in first place both in the nomination phase and during final voting.
Truly an excellent video that was put together superbly and filled with rapid-fire comedy.

And now, for my personal selection. Zarx's Choice award goes to "[Woy] Petites Vidéomations - uncharted"
Of all the entries in the contest, this was my absolute favorite. This video is simply good in ways that I can't even begin to describe. A lot of people think that the key to making AMV Hell-type videos is just good jokes. But the jokes are only half of it. The video needs energy. It needs to draw you in. It needs soul. This video has that in abundance. Even if some of jokes fall flat or are lost in translation, I'm still intrigued by the clips themselves. This video hits the perfect balance of comedy, technical mastery, originality, and excitement, all the while never forgetting that it's an Anime Music Video at heart. I also loved the transition between clips, as it showed progression and came to life in it's own way, finally surprising me at the very end. This was also the longest video in the contest, but it certainly didn't feel like it. There was never a dull moment here. Not only is this an amazing video, but the creator knew it, and had the balls to call it out from the very beginning. Bravo.

[Guthix]

had a feeling the true winner would be in the back seat [minis chalenges showed people have no ****in taste], i guess being zarxs personal pick makes it less depressing.

[itschickenscratch]

Good job guys! Congrats!

[pzykosiz]

it was by far the best clip in a technical sense, i had give that a vote.

the top 2 ended up being pretty obvious after the first round.

7th overall isn't too bad, almost a quarter of people voted for me

[Gleeman]

I voted for Petites as well.

Doesn't say who authored the clips?

I'm very glad to have won this special award. Such high praises from Zarx, I could do a lot of dirty jokes to express my satisfaction and beatitude...
Thank you for this comment! :*

I personnally voted for 24-7: congrats to the winners. I really enjoyed this one and when it ended, I founded it too short, I really wanted more.
The concept of these shortened short tracks that allows to kept a high pace and to chain the jokes was very clever and effective.
I still want more :)

Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations, congratulations.....

Also, quick question: I know Zarx is done with AMV Hell, but will there still be AMV contests like this one?

Zarx already basically said this was the last thing he'll be involved in.

There might be more contests like this from others, though.

[itschickenscratch]

I felt it was important for me to post a clapping gif as well.

[Zarxrax]

Good point. 24/7 was by SuperLoliSentai and SilentChaz. I'll add that to the top post.

[Cangelosi]

A hearty clapping all around and congrats.

[Magus00]

Congratz to the winners!

[SilentChaz]

Only now do I spot the Brokeback Mountain easter egg in Petites. Very nice.

I can’t speak for Boss, but I for one feel very flattered by the results of the first poll in particular.

So, Zarx... am I a judge yet?

[Zarxrax]

So, Zarx... am I a judge yet?
Sure thing! You can be a judge on all the compilations I release from here on out!

[thedarkmessenger]

Sure thing! You can be a judge on all the compilations I release from here on out!

all 0 of them?! :D

[SilentChaz]

Sure thing!
WOOOOOOOT!!!!1!!11!!

I made it, Momma! I finally made it!

[Guthix]

anyone can be a judge for zarx from this point

[thedarkmessenger]

anyone can be a judge for zarx from this point

pretty much.

You made nothing, Chaz.

[milleniummaster18]

Who knows what the future may hold...

[N.P.C.C.]

Who knows what the future may hold...

*Predicts SSG selling out again*

[thedarkmessenger]

*Predicts SSG selling out again*

Maybe Chaz can still be a judge if he sucks up to SSG.

[pzykosiz]

Maybe Chaz can still be a judge if he sucks up to SSG.

hahaha, you're funny

[N.P.C.C.]

Maybe Chaz can still be a judge if he sucks up to SSG.

He would need to get Senpai to notice him, which may prove difficult given how he tends to ignore people talking to him.

[urahara1001]

Sure thing! You can be a judge on all the compilations I release from here on out!

I've been gone to long.

So congratulations to chaz for winning.

While this is an accurate comment, go **** yourself, Princess.

Yeah I ranked up to princess.

I'm curious did anything interesting happen in my absence?

[thedarkmessenger]

Everyone praised Chaz for the joint effort between him and Sentai while poor Sentai was completely ignored.

[urahara1001]

Hey now, in fairness, I didn't praise anyone for anything. With Chaz competing, someone has to play the role of dick father figure that is dissatisfied with everything.

http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTMZ-APaEXDUQTcRxLZ3IuWp1CbsNt-Eg0t1AERdBOth0-5U0Ny

Yes, I'm apparently communicating through images now. That's just what keeps popping in my head.

[Guthix]

While this is an accurate comment, go **** yourself, Princess.

http://i.imgur.com/YsNZvN0.jpg

im kinda surprized that you didnt expect to be seen as chaz's shadow, guess you didnt see your own inferiority before teaming up.

[jinzo64]

Everyone praised Chaz for the joint effort between him and Sentai while poor Sentai was completely ignored.

I was not aware that the 24/7 compilation was a joint effort. I'm sorry for being unware of this fact.
congratulations to Sentai for winning.

[milleniummaster18]

What did you expect, Brad? The loudest of the bunch is the one who gets the spotlight.

Sure, Zarx forgetting to put the authors' names didn't help. But right now, all eyes are on your buddy over there.

I wouldn't feel left out though, if I were you.

[Shuiia]

So literally no-one read the credits on their project?
Or you guys just read it but thought, yeah **** it it's chaz's work.

[jinzo64]

I didn't watch the credits but I've just watched them and there is special thanks given to Hoso and Ura. So do we congratulate them on winning as well?

You know what congratulations to Hoso and Ura for winning.

[Guthix]

So literally no-one read the credits on their project?
Or you guys just read it but thought, yeah **** it it's chaz's work.

i took a gander at the authors once the winners were anounced, since zarx didnt name them, but it didnt change the overall opinion that "its was made by chaz".

only one clip made me scroll through the credits to check an anime made by a hidden team onahole member, amvs that make me want to watch something are so rare these days.
