Ok, this is rather embarrassing.
I had a hard drive failure last night and ended up losing all of the amv minis entries, among other things.
It seems that well over 3/4 of the videos have expired from the sites they were uploaded on, meaning I can't re-download them.
This has really just been putting a lot of stress on me lately, and this was the final straw. Sorry guys, but AMV Minis is over.
You can just submit your vids to AMV Hell 6 instead, if/when it becomes announced.

We can just re-upload the accepted skits you know. That part's not that big of a deal really.

Hey Zarx I got a few questions.
If this is true then:
1. Are you taking a break from the minis or are you ditching them entirely?
2. If you are ditching them then does that give us permission to make them without you because most of us spent a lot of long hard work on our clips and all you really did was judge them? ( Not trying to sound mean :P )
3. And if your done with them does that technically make all the clips that were accepted, rejected now?

He said quite clearly in the first post that "AMV Minis is over."
I would presume this means that he is finishing the project for now. Maybe he'll come back to it in a few years or perhaps after AMV Hell 6 is over, but for now it seems he wishes not to carry on with it.
In all honesty Zarx, I wouldn't blame you in the slightest for dropping this. It was a big project with A LOT of submissions. I'd presume the work was just as long and difficult as putting together something huge like the main AMV Hell series. Losing all my work due to a Hard Drive crash would probably make me want to cancel this, too.

If...ha...look at me post...this is the truth, by all means halt the project. Or any project not lead by SSG. I see it this way: AMV Hell was an internet phenomenon, it will rest like all viral videos and internet celebrities will eventually.
Besides, the main Hell series was starting to suffer from Sequelitis. Also, it seemed like the Minis series was being slightly too ambitious. This project being an indication of that.

Well, maybe about half of them are gone, probably. Remember when sharebee had issues with megaupload? Well megaupload was one of the few places that actually kept the files more than 2 or 3 weeks. So there are a lot of vids that ended up gone now.
Solving this would require me going through everything and downloading all the vids AGAIN, then trying to contact the people who's videos i cant get, and hoping that they get the message and still have their videos, and that they reply to me in a reasonable time.

Healthy advice if you ask me.
TDM should have read a page back that I posted
if it really did die your more than welcome to send me the hard drive and ill do a lovely platter swap out or replace the controller board from a functioning model and make cause you know its not like you cant fix hard drives. Also ya cant use the platters are all scratched excuse anymore since most hard drives have G-sensors now and lock the heads at their home position in a free fall only way you could pull that off is if beat the **** out of it with a hammer XD
2 reasons a hard disk dies is either mechanical or logical both are replaceable, mechanical problems usually involves a platter swap out from another model thats the same and is only good to obtain the data back. Cause once the seal is broken outside a clean room the air is no longer particle free and will eventually scratch the **** out of the platters over time it just depends on the quality of the air which would determine its life span.

I have an idea. Forgive me if I missed someone else suggest this... But why doesn't one of us start a collection for a new external USB2 HDD. Something in the 2 tB range. I'd be glad to put 5 or 10 dollars towards that. Then, we create a mailing list, everyone who had approved submissions could mail the drive around, putting their material on it. We could absorb the cost and much of the work as a community.
I don't know. That's not TOO stupid an idea, is it?

that's probably a very bad idea. Not only would it be slow and costly, but it would also risk losing the HDD, someone stealing it, viruses, and several other problems.

Its just such a hassle. I'm tired of it.:mad:
Then next time backup. I'm sorry, in this case I have no sympathy. Hell, you even said you heard the drive making noises beforehand, and didn't start copying data off immediately?
I had a drive start dying on me once - I could get it to mount in Linux only, and even then it was coming up read-only. First thing I did was run out, buy a drive, and start copying everything I could. As a result, I lost a handful of small files out of thousands. Drive kicked the bucket after that and never mounted again.
You just lost untold hours of yours and everyone else's work. A 2TB drive costs what - $70?

Feel free to disregard what I'm going to say. But here it is.
The hells are not a responsibility of Zar rax attacks. It is his hobby and gift to us should he grace them upon us. If something of this nature did/has/does occur it is within his every right and parameters to scrap the project with his discretion. Since he is not paid except with our respect does it fall into him having to do them. At this point us forum members are sounding like whiny children informed that we don't get a present for our birthday. If we get a mini then happy day, if not we should carry on. Sure disappoint shall and can occur but do not let it fall to bashing. That's the quickest way on the ban train. Instead we should be thankful for the hells we do have.
Thank you for your time.

I must admit I agree with Gut, it's not a right attitude to defend someone's failure. Of course you can say "huh bro, it's not a big deal" but don't try to justify it, one should always take responsibility for what he has done, no matter what his status is. Minis are not only Zarx's work, but many other people's (I'm not one of them though).
Anyway, I still think it's a prank, and certainly don't try to sound mean, I just didn't approve of Baka's attitude.

Not.... quite....
What I'm saying is we have to remember at the very least that these are a pass time for Zar rax attacks, if he is up to doing them he will do them. If he doesn't want to he won't. Notice as to things like the delays being "TF2 updated" and "I just got a 3ds". Life "mainly" should be about having fun. So once it becomes a hassle to do them and Zar rax attacks can adopt an attitude of not caring about some peoples disappointment it is within his realm of possibilities to just scrap whatever has/had been done and make the claim he had previously in his joke of "it's too much hassle, I'm fed up, I'm not doing it anymore" Many people were suggesting "fixes" for how to recover the process (in the assumption that this wasn't a joke) and those may be well and dandy but under no circumstances would he be required to take any action if he was just too frustrated.
Now others may not like this attitude or perspective/new outlook of his (in this hypothetical situation) but tough cookies. They are (at the very best) only slightly viewing the situation from his eyes.
I leave you with this: "The greatest mistake man has made is trying to understand another."

Tell that to the four I have loaded in my Drobo - with dual-drive redundancy. Seriously, I haven't seen a 2TB drive above $90 in many months, and back around Thanksgiving through January they were plentiful at $70, even saw one at $60. And this was all online - no local sales or funny business.
