Survive By Your Skills [CONTEST]

***After a minor setback, the contest is BACK IN ACTION! I just want to thank everyone for their support and ideas. I had so many lovely PM's about how to keep this contest running. So let's get to it!***

Want a contest with no biases? 100% Fairly Judged? You got it! Vidders enter this contest anonymously, so you can be judged on your skills alone.

3 simple steps to enter...

1. Create a video. Any fandom, any length, let your creativity flow :)
2. Upload the video to a file sharing website like rapidshare, mediafire or megaupload. Whichever site you are comfortable with using.
3. Send me a PM with the link to download the file (and anything you want included in your video description). I will then upload your video onto the NEW channel...
http://www.youtube.com/user/SurviveByYourSkills2

This way nobody else knows who's video is who's (I won't be involved in judging).

JUDGING!
Again, the power is in your hands. After the contest closes (in about a month - but will depend on number of entries) You may vote for your favourite videos. The ones with the most votes will be the winners. This is the fairest way to judge, so no vidding styles are given preference either, plus everyone gets to have a say!

Please Share this contest with others!
Upload this video to your account if you'd like to spread the word:

and subscribe to the SurviveByYourSkills2 account to watch all the entries as they're uploaded!

Thanks and Good Luck! :)

Credit must be given where it's due!
Thanks to shybloodlover for the idea of uploading to file sharing sites!

AND For the Record....
I'm not saying everyone who hosts a contest deliberately picks their friends as winners, because I know that is often NOT the case. I'm just saying that feelings and preconceived opinions can influence our decisions, no matter how objective we try to be. This is just my way of trying to give EVERYONE the chance to shine!

[SilverShadow0111]

@justAngi that's ok hun, just see how you go. I can probably give you an extra day or 2 later if you need it, but don't worry about it if you're too busy :)

[dominoesrising]

is there a deadline to enter? i'll try to whip up something soon! ;D

[SilverShadow0111]

@dominoesrising awesome :) I think the deadline will be the 28 February but it will depend on how many entries we've got by then.

[AliAliceTake2]

do you have to make a new video from scratch?

[SilverShadow0111]

@AliAliceTake2 It would be better if you could, but if not I'll still accept an old vid.

[sweeterthanhunni]

so is this over? And if not are you allowed to upload the video you want to enter to your own account or no? I'm guessing no but I have to.

[SilverShadow0111]

@HPfane777 sure :) I'll allow 2 entries per person.

[SilverShadow0111]

@DakotaFanning94 great! I definitely hope you do! :D

[HPfane777]

I have question can it be more than one entry?
