The 17th is the last day to vote!

Last day to vote on the vids in the VASST contest, so you might want to check into it. There are lot of new ones.
Some rankings have changed in the past 24 hours, we discovered a couple vids that were artificially high due to family members voting, so we've had to make some changes.
Check em' out, vote for your fave. There are some brilliant and creative entries. We'll be showing the winners at the NAB Vegas users party.

[edit] I made an error, thinking tomorrow was the 15th. Friday is the last day to vote

Is there going to be a place to discuss the videos after the contest? There's at least one that I want to find out "How'd they do that?'. There's also one which I am curious as to WHY they did that - is it supposed to be as offensive as it seems, or is there some inside joke I don't know about?

Great contest, BTW. Hope you keep doing them.

Man, I had the rules wrong. I thought today was the last day to enter and voting would go on for some time after today.

Oh well. I liked how mine turned out.

Contest was great, enjoyed watching the videos, some very creative uses of 10 seconds. Hope you keep them coming, beginners to advanced users,they were a lot of fun, plus a few get some goodies.
Thanks

Is there a way to download these files all at once so we can watch it as a whole ? I thought I read that you can somewhere but can't find it on the site...

I'd love to know who "cathy" is, but somethings may never be told Z.

Yeah, the cathy clip moved up really quick. Whew!

that's what sex appeal does to a clip, when properly utilized. ;)

Good luck to all the other entries. I had a tough time getting a concept down to 10 sec., really learned much from the other entries.
Keep the contests coming, I wanna win a Damn bowling shirt.

When the contest is over the contestants' names will show up and maybe you can get some questions answered.

Or they can post the .veg for their project with common or generated media substituted.

The error gremlin has been banished and the contest angels have held back the end by a couple days.

I got a question though,
we can obviously not vote for our own entry( kinda strange,I could vote for myself if I was running for president :) ). Or I would choose mine as first place and then choose the others I thought were good too. But I am unable to vote for just second and third place. I want to cast my votes for the others but lets say I'm a point away from another guy I wish to vote for. that would put me behind him with my own votes. Am I explaining this right? anybody else see what I mean.?

I think that is between you and your conscience.

However, for next time, I think the vote results should be hidden because then this issue wouldn't come up

Hey Spot, can you edit the subject of this thread to the 17th?

www.vasst.com doesn't answer!
Jason_Abbott wrote on 4/16/2005, 2:19 AM
I think the site host might have been doing some midnight server maintenance. I noticed the same thing, but it's been back a bit now, so you'll have to explain your lack of votes some other way. ; )

I think there should have been a deadline for entering your vid before anyone was allowed to vote. After that deadline, allow everyone to vote. That way you know everyone who voted has had the chance to review all videos.

I knew that Jason! :-) The way this contest it structured I was aware that it was only to amuse folks and that it would not have any chance to make a placing - it's all in good fun anyway and we all got to show each other how we think and use Vegas. Check the chill.wmv one out for fun ....

Good Luck to all who entered!!
