okay this is just a little post to say I am SOOOO excited that the annual tournament(s) are coming up. I love them!

I think it's going to be really interesting this year because of the whole LVI 5.0 transformation. Plus we have a new administer and new council members.

When do we start!
Is anyone else as excited as me?

EDIT: Hey, I just thought of something: what if we had a special Best Charlie Tribute catagory for the open vote?

im excited too!!!

Mainly because...well...this is my first year of making vids and posting here, so ive never witnessed the tournement live. I hope some of my vids have a shot of getting nominated.

*dont jinx it*

But yeah i really cant wait for all the festivities too begin! And i think Best Charlie Tribute contest would be a great idea!

ZOMG, the Tournament's coming???? *runs around madly, bumping into walls*

Never fear, your faithful Council Members are already deep into the planning and organizing phase of getting things ready for this year's Tournament.

We're so glad to hear that you guys are looking forward to it, too!

We don't have an official start date set yet but it'll be in November to coincide with LVI's 3rd birthday!

No worries, Jemmz!

Have a look at the Contest page and you'll see two years, 2005 and 2006, under Annual Contests. That's where the information is for our previous 2 Tournaments and Open Polls. Basically, though, it's a celebration/contest of the best videos submitted during the year (it happens in November because that was when LVI was "born,"

November, 2004). Through several weeks of voting, eventually one vid will be crowned the Best Vid of the year. And everybody votes on this, not just the Council!

There'll be more details coming in the future, so don't worry, you won't miss anything!

Wow, that IS an awesome idea. Thanks for explaining that to me. I'm just reading the link you sent me.

Quote:

The most unique thng about this tournament is it's not just the council who decides the winner, it's you, our loyal vidders! Anyone with a video that has earned a Council Pick seal may vote in this contest.

So this means only people with council pick awards can vote?

Ah, fair enough. Or was that just for 2005? Because the 2006 one has an Open Vote thing.

edit: nvm, I read over what you said. That's pretty cool. I'm so happy I'm on this site

Charlie tribute category? What a rubbish idea.

kidding.

Thanks so much for suggesting it, I will love you forever.

I'm very excited about the tournament too. Nice to see I'm not alone.

Thanks, but if BGDC & Collide cant do that I doubt I can make one (for the time being) that can.
