OK, I hadn’t been on here in like foreverz, so I’m sure no one here knows me. Since my last forumwarz hiatus I’ve been busy with college, work, video games, and making a stupid youtube show (srs business). I realized that with any web show, you need some shameless advertising, and you always have to pay for it. But since I love FW so much for their web parody, I figured a good way to do it would be in a FW contest.

The prize in this simple contest is a whopping 20 BP. That’s all the BP I got left (yea, I love this game THAT much)

Let me explain. I made a gaming web show (original, amirite?) with a friend of mine. And the first episode just came out recently, with a bunch more we’ve already filmed on their way. The show is located here: http://www.youtube.com/lifeandlevel

here are the rules to this ludicrous contest:

1. Post the youtube account you will be using to post your video response with on this thread. I will not accept it if the timestamp shows the response before the post on here. This is to prevent people from claiming other people’s entries.

2. Watch any video I have posted at http://youtube.com/lifeandlevel (which is most likely just one, but another should be coming out soon)

3. You need to reply to the video with a video response, any length. The subject of your video response HAS to be about the show. It also can’t be a trolling video (you know, like some kids screaming and singing or some annoying **** like that. Or negative comments that aren’t constructive). If you have a genuine negative response to the show, just make it constructive at least so we can ****ing learn something from it.

4. Rack up as many hits on YOUR response video as possible.

5. Wait until contest is over at precisely Sunday April 5, 2009 17:00 EST. That’s 5 PM for you non thinking types.

A winrar is determined by which video response has the largest number of hits at the time the contest ends. Yes, I will be there to keep track of it, but you can take screenshots for insurance that there is no dispute just in case some are close calls.

It’s a simple and easy contest that could mean a whole plate of enough brownie points to stuff even the fattest of fatties.

lol, yea. I’m expecting both of those things. Figured it’s worth a shot though.

Edit: Is there a way for someone other than the video owner to be able to tell?

That was awesome… ****in brutal even. The echoing and volume levels will a bit annoying but still watchable

I’ll try my hand at this.

I’ll be posting it under “CrinkzFWZ”

Yea, I’ll bite. I’ll post as Azrigar.

tl;dr of comments for forum goers who are too lazy to go to youtube:

1. Fix the intro music. Might be a compression to FLV issue, might be that the bbum is too high, idk, but it’s kinda bad during the intro.

2. Script the explanation pieces next time. Josh kept interrupting and being a douche, which was a little distracting and made me want to skip forward.

3. Overall, I liked the concept of a dog collar zapping you when you die in an FPS.

4. The editing going from the split screen to someone screaming from a collar shock and back was OK, but I’d prefer to have it switch back to the game faster.

5. I know it’s hard because I have held one too, but try to get your sound guy to keep the boom mic out of frame.

6. WTF @ that dart! Yes, ****ing with his controller was bad “sportsmanship”, but for **** sake…

6.a. In his defense, that releasing of the dogs **** was completely unfair. He was already getting his bum kicked badly enough, and those are probably balanced for full team-sized matches, not 1-on-1.

P.S. I’m doing a direct record and youtube SUCKS ****ING BALLS at syncing those, so it will look ****ty.

Just finished watching it and making the review. It will be slides with words since I don’t have any voice or picture recording device. But since it didn’t have to be I made due with what I could. About to upload.
