With 6 videos, I've been on the fence about it. (the 7th isn't a real hentai video). I have decided to go ahead with it and asked Mike to squeeze it into the schedule.

It's not like there's ever been a real boom in the HMV scene, has there. How much new uncensored footage gets released yearly?

No, it's not mine. That's going to be shown during overflow.

Given the thread topic, polishing's a poor choice of words.

They haven't pushed any schedule updates to guidebook yet, but last night at the dinner Adam was saying they're supposed to be putting it on Saturday at around 11pm.

I don't think it's something that is appropriate for a public forum. :P

I think this is the first time Brian and I have actually been kinda grossed out by an HAMV. XD

And dokool fired everyone for not remembering Al's Higurashi video in another topic?... The Totoro one was pretty much a video that will be remembered for ABs to come, haha.

The Burping Totoro video was in 2006, and the Higurashi one was only three years ago, in 2010. Seven years is a lot of time for new people to come into the fold. I had seen the Totoro video a couple times before, but until earlier this year, I didn't realize that Al was the one who had made it (I started attending AB in '07).

2006? Are you serious?..... I thought the Totoro video won Best of Show, and I thought Best of Show in 2006 was the Princess Tutu video.


Edit: Typo on your end, it was 2007. And what was the Higurashi video Al did set to?... At work, and will be all night, so I can't check. Too many sites blocked.

I believe that one was set to "Happy Happy Joy Joy" from Ren & Stimpy.

You know.... actually, I think that is the video I was thinking of then.... actually VERY sure it is. I remember the cop guy being the main focus as the narrator of the story/song, and was thinking it was set to ferrets. I must have had the wrong song in my mind, but the right video after all.

No, 2006. The video we're talking about is Blasphemy, and it didn't win any awards at AB. The one you're thinking of from 2007 was Something Wicked This Way Comes, and it competed in Fun/Upbeat/Other, not Comedy.

The Higurashi video was set to "Happy Happy Joy Joy" by Stinky Wizzleteats.

Well, that would explsin everything. Only comedies I remember from 2006 were Channel Surfin' 2 and the Fullmetal Hell one. Can't remember a Totoro one in the finals at all that year, but funny enough, I remember more videos from 2006 than most other years I have attended.
