    It’s that time again. You don’t need to look at your clock since our times will all be different. It’s Top 5 time.
    This week was a little disappointing if I have to be honest. Not many people uploaded and there weren’t many videos to choose from. I know why though. A lot of people have been having the problem of running out of space on their account and for those people who uploaded many videos each week, that’ll be a problem as you’ll rapidly lower your chances of getting on the Top 5. I’ve got three solutions:
    1. Try not to upload too many videos each week, if you upload to many there’s a larger chance you’ll get on the Top 5 once but in the long run this means you’ll have less chances to enter if you upload a single, different video each week you’ll have a lesser chance of winning that week but you’ll be able to enter for longer and eventually you might get on the Top 5.
    2. Delete some of your oldest uploaded videos to make space. Now I’m not sure if that’s possible but it’s worth a shot. If it’s not doable please tell me.
    3. Get an account on youtube, veoh, etc since I’ve seen a few videos being on youtube or veoh players so I assume you can just view the video through the portal. I’m not sure if this takes up space on your portal account but if it does, ignore this idea but still tell me.
    Hopefully we’ll have more uploaders and variety next week.

    EDIT: There should be enough room now for a week or two's uploads. Try not to upload too many videos by yourself for both your chances of winning for more weeks and to lessen how much space you use.

    Anywho, onto the Top 5 shall we?
    You all should know by now that if you don’t make it on this weeks list, try and try again. So I’d like to see more of you trying by uploading videos. I know there are some really good editors out there who aren’t uploading, it’d be nice to see some of their work on the site again. But remember, it can only be Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy AMVs, trailers, fan edited videos, etc.

    Okay, time to reel off this weeks five man band after that massive block of text:

    1. ~Kingdom Hearts - Ready Set Go~

    Song: Ready Set Go - Tokyo Hotel
    Details: Although you call it crappy, it’s not that bad. It’s pretty good, you did use a lot of videos-in-videos boxes or whatever you kids call them these days but overall it worked quite well. And if this is your old work, I’d like to see more of your new work.

    2. Worm Part

    Song: You’ll have to fill me in on this
    Details: Although it’s an unfinished (?) worm segment it’s pretty good and quite long for something going in a worm if you ask me. Heck, I’d of thought this was a regular amv if it wasn’t for the title and description.

    Song: Hero - Nickelback
    Details: It’s quite well edited in terms of flow. Not all that many transitions although there are a few video effects used that are hit or miss in the eye of the beholder (to my eyes they where fairly used) but it managed to keep me entertained none the less.

    4. Kingdom Hearts - Welcome To Oblivion

    Song: Welcome To Oblivion - Madina Lake
    Details: It’s probably the best video from the batch you uploaded as it keeps it’s flow throughout most of the video. There’s not really much else I can say about it.

    Song: It’s Not My Time - 3 Doors Down
    Details: Due to the sheer lack of videos uploaded this week another one of yours was picked. This being the next best video you uploaded after the one above. Unfortunately, this and a few other ones managed to loose flow about 40% of the way through, this managed to pick it up on and off afterwards though. It’s edited in a similar way to the above one but you tend to linger on scenes for too long around the middle. If you work on your flow keeping you could make some really good videos with a few effects and transitions, possibly from a tutorial or two. You’ve got timing and scene choosing down pretty good though which is the basis of it all. Just gotta add some glamour and glitter to it now and you’ll be rolling in it.
