Hey guys,

Just was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of when the first round of voting ends. I'm having a hard time watching everything in a timely fashion. Maybe I need to manage my time a little better but knowing when it ends would help me figure out if I need to rush or not. Thanks so much. (I really don't want to random vote, nor do I want to not vote on a bunch of them).


Anyone else have've a hell of a time (even though it's also a hell of a fun time) watching all of these films? Were really outdid ourselves this time, didn't we all?
 
Yeah? Wow. I'm trying to comment on all of them after each one (while it's still fresh). Maybe I need to just take notes and stuff. It's hard for me to stay detailed if I'm commenting much later.

Man, you're a monster. Good work.
 
1) I, too, comment after watching each. It makes it easier to not forget something.

2) It has already been said that there is no definite end to the first round yet established. The Mods are watching the influx of votes carefully and when they think the majority of the voting is done they will announce the next round and the limit for that.
 
i'm just not a big fan of the "voting will end ... sometime around next week" sort of thing. what's with all this secrecy/uncertainty? What's to gain from it?

I'm with you on that, ben. But i'm sure there won't be some crazy voting... ends... now! announcement. Maybe the mods are just testing out this new system. seeing how long it's taking?

But, yes these films and reviews are kicking my ass.
 
I'm about 2/3 of the way through voting. It'll probably take me a couple more days. I guess I should be done sometime Friday.
 
I have watched all of the entries and posted to each thread and voted. What helped me was the post from Horncastle Timefest notes form (pdf) I used this nifty PDF he made printed it out that way I could rate each film, put down my vote and then check them off as I posted and voted. I just managed to finish up today but it took a while even using this method. Luckily I didn't have much going on this week.

That is exactly what it is. This is a whole new system, and no one is sure how long it will take. There is no reason to be unhappy, there will be ample warning before voting ends I am sure. The Mods just want to make sure everone has a chance to watch and vote. Be patient!

Just my opinion, but if you look at all the last minute entries, there's a decent chance they're just thinking that if they state a deadline, people will wait till that day to finish. Trying to head it off by not giving a deadline, so people will just watch as fast as they can.

In the link that they supplied to view the films... you can find it HERE in the first post.

When you open the link to view the individual movies you will see a star rating on the right hand side. Rate them anywhere from 1 to 10.

I get a bonus star for helping you with this. :happy:

Cheers,

Mike

Actually, since you only have 16 posts you are not qualified to vote. The rules state that you have to complete one of two requirements in order to be eligible to vote:

1) Have 50 posts by the time viewing/voting begins
2) Be the submitting filmmaker of one of the entries

Umm... just about everyone referred to Cazcam as a she (judging by the avatar) and they were never corrected. They even went on to comment about having a female filmmaker in the Fest. Just check The Moment After thread. They never corrected them from what I read??


BTW, I've only been here since 2007. How about you? :D

Slimothy, I just wanted to add... this is the second time that CP has indicated to someone that they can't vote. Mistakenly of course. That's why I said to be careful.

Cheers,

Mike

Yea, it's sort of an inside joke. Not meant as a knock towards you.

Oct of 04' for me. I'm a lifer.
