YoYoExpert Video Tournament

[Samad]

Okay-Here is the thing that I have been planning for the forum. A YoYoExpert Video Battle Tournament! Unfortunately, due to the fact that I cant offer a prize, here will be no prize  Still, the winner of this tournament will be known as the YoYoExpert Champion!

I will categorize you into 2 groups: Beginner, and Advanced. The winner of each will be the champion of there division.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RULES:
To Compete: You must have a camera. First, enter a short 10-20 second video of you. Also, reply to this thread stating which division you would like to enter. After submitting the video, I will choose which group you will compete in. It may be different then the one you signed up for.

Judging: There will be one judge-Me! I will judge according to these rules: http://www.worldyoyocontest.com/2008worlds/scoring_championship.html
Also, In the
1A ONLY Make sure you read the rules in order to get a better understanding of what I will look for in your freestyle.
***********************************************************************************
Competing:

How to Participate: As mentioned above, you must have a video camera. If there arent enough participators, I will hold off the contest until we get more people.

How to Preform Your Tricks: I will randomly assign who you will battle with. I will have a ladder of competitors, viewable to the public, so you can see who you are battling. You will have 5 days to upload the video, then PM me the link. I will make a thread wih each video, and the people of YYE will vote for who they think is better. Each video must have a minimum of 3 tricks, and a maximum of 5 tricks. If you go under, or over these limits, you will be prompted to make a new video.

Video: Make sure you have good lighting, and easy string visibility. If not, then you will be prompted to make another video. Make sure you follow these rules.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

Once again: If you wish to participate, just leave a comment on this post saying that you would like to partcipate, and what division you would like to partcipate in.

Also, leave a video of you yoyoing, that is 10-20 seconds long. If you already have a video that is longer, and recent, you can post that too.

It will be easier to judge.

Also, sorry Greg, but we will start when we get enough people.

Anyone else?

[EvanB]

Ok, sadly, i can'y use my camera that often so i can't compete but I can help with something else!
But Great idea! Have told andre this? But i would love to be involved because i cant compete!

[yoyoman]

um, don't you think 10-20 seconds is too short? I have one trick that is 13 seconds alone. One suggestion is that you lengthen it to 3-40 seconds long per video or just have people do one trick.

I just want them to do a trick, so I can see whether they are too good for the division that they want to enter. The video they submit isnt for the battle. I will tell you guys who is battling who, when we get more people. So far, I have no one that is competing.

[AKan3A]
