i just want to know why they are so quick to jump to not give some of my vids a council pick. like my new vid "One" its the most recent vid and judging has already stopped. if u look at the others that were earlier, they are still judging. i dont want to sound whiny or anything, i just want know why judging takes such little amounts of time for my vids.

It's nothing against you personally. Length of voting on any video is determined by a lot of things. Every video has to have 3 yes votes or 3 no votes to get picked as a council pick or not. Lately we've been behind in our voting so lately we've been getting back on track to getting our voting done faster especially by adding another council member. If a number of council members have been online and voting in a day a number of videos can be watched, voted on, and decided on in a short amount of time. Every video entered is given a fair chance at a council pick. How fast it is passed or not does not matter in anything because it would have to go through the same process of any video.

If you have any more questions please feel free to ask. If you are extremely concerned about this issue I will look further into the matter for you.

I'm not sure if you're accusing the council of being unfair with the distribution CPs, or remarking on the sad situation regarding the lack of recognition to the videos which aren't as well-known, but if it's the later, I have to agree

it's a shame that the vids that don't get the CPs aren't recognised by the piublic more, since they do have a lot of hard work put into them.

Us judges would do it if we had more time, but even themn I doubt we'd have anythign original to comment on for each video when we watch all these vids

If the sting of rejection is really too hard to bear anymore, and you want some possible tips from us on how to improve your next video, then I recommend starting a topic in this Self Help forum, with a link to your video's topic. Experienced vidders and judges alike would then attempt to explain why it didn't get a CP, and what; you can do to improve.

harsh way to do it, I'm afrad, as all rejection is, but hey, at least then you'll know that either a) you did have some things you needed improving that you could fix in the future, or b) that what we're saying makes a good video is completely against your idea of a good video, and you will have no more sadness knowing that we rejected you

But anyway, let me say what I say to everyone, or at least said when rejection meant a video wasn't even included on LVI back when we were hosting the vids: Never give up, and enjoy your work, even if nobody else seems to appreciate it.

Okay, thanks for theat. Sorry if I sounded like i was accusing you. There are a number of videos that don't quite make it, I'll admit. But each video needs three of the five council votes in order to pass, so some of those possibly got a couple votes, but not the majority. It happens a l;ot surprisingly.
Sorry if I sounded harsh, I was a little worried that either you were either distressed or a little ticked off with LVI, so I wanted to rectify the situation.
