Hey everyone! After the success of last years video contest we have decided to do things a little differently this year..... Due to the overwhelming amount of entries we got in, we have decided to DOUBLE the size of the contest this year! Instead of 20 entries to vote on, there will be 40! Instead of 5 overall winners there will be 10! Another major change this year is allowing everyone to vote on the entries BEFORE TPR announces their pick. The TPR award winners and the Viewers Choice award winners will be announced at the same time on July 15th. 5 new videos will be added each week for the next 8 weeks, and then voting will open for 4 additional weeks. So without any further ado, START DOWNLOADING THIS WEEK'S CONTEST ENTRIES!!! http://www.themeparkreview.com/contest2005/contest2005.htm --Robb "Good luck to everyone who made the cut!" Alvey UPDATE! Voting is NOW OPEN!!! Click here to submit your ballot: http://www.themeparkreview.com/contest2005/contest2005.htm _________________ TPR Hoodies are BACK!

I better start downloading, I liked Jon Loco's entry last year, so I'll start with him *twiddles fingers*. I feel like Simon Cowell! EDIT: Is it possible to post their size like you do for your own videos?

Assume that most of them are right about 25 megs. --Robb _________________ TPR Hoodies are BACK!

The interesting angles, terrific editing, and abundance of non-coaster content is going to be hard to beat. "Paula... what do you think?

Whoo-hoo! Honestly, I never thought the Miracle Strip Amusement Park video would have been chosen. I know Robb called the park a "craphole" and the coaster isn't the best in the world. I almost cut it from my 3 video entries. I thought for sure one of the other two video submissions would be nominated among the finalists. One thing I've learned about the contest from that is to never underestimate the video contest judges because they are all wise and all knowing! Yes, I am butt-kissing.

Yeah, we thought the park was a craphole, but you also have to remember that when we look at videos, we keep an open mind. Even though WE might have thought the park sucked, we also realized that the footage of the now demolished place was at least "interesting." With so many "common" parks out there it's nice to include off-beat places. Part of what makes a good contest entry is the location of the park you chose to enter. And we take that factor into consideration. Now that doesn't mean that just because your entry is Cedar Point, doesn't mean it won't get chosen (just look at Jon's entry) but there are other factors that go into our pickings (good edits, nice footage, etc) --Robb "You wouldn't believe how many Orlando videos we got this year!"

Just got back from our mailbox where we had another 9 Packages!! If I underestimate and say that all 9 sent just 2 entries...well you can do the math and see why we had to double this years contest!

Next year, I think I will put a lot of sex and violence in my video. That's a sure-fire way to win! No really...it's interesting to see people's reactions to Miracle Strip. I posted a TR on it on another board. People were talking about it like it was an old friend or a relative that passed away. I wish I had done the haunted house though. People said that I missed out on a good (or cheesy) thing.
