Ok, everyone...now this is open for your discussion..... --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkscrewed Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 wow, I expected the "Don't Look Down" video to compete a lot higher, but I can't complain too much, because it might have knocked my vid out of the TPR top five! Much love to Robb and Elissa for organizing this, and to all the judges for the apparently flattering votes. For me, it was either Paul Ruiz or the "Don't Look Down" vid, so I'm definitely not bummed about the winner. Congratulations to everyone who entered! Now I gotta start wracking for ideas for next year's contest! YAY! EDIT: Hmmm... Runners Up get two TPR vids of their choice... now I gotta see if I'm actually missing any of the vids! They're prolly the coaster footage vids from the first couple of seasons or something. Or maybe I'll ask for a DVD version of the two TPR vids I have on VCR... haha, this definitely cheered me up.

Nrthwnd Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Congrats to everybody involved with the contest. A lot of great vids there to choose from, it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodfalls Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Yay! I actually voted properly this year, making very careful choices, having watched every video. There were some really great entries, and it was hard to choose. One of my choices was Justin Saxe's Silverwood entry. Great editing, and I really love "Sing, Sing, Sing", so I had a lot of fun watching that. I'm happy with the number 1 though, as that was also in my top three - great work from Paul. Robb, I have a video of Thorpe Park from 2005. Would it be permitted for inclusion next year? Just wondering. Some people have told me it's good enough to go in.

Luxo Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Yay, top 20! That's better than I did last year! Congrats to the winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Whoa...the people liked me... ! Sad to say I wont be entering next year so I guess thats less competition for everyone else. But congrats to everyone who participated it was fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimths08 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Man, I wish Mueller's video would have ranked higher. He did an awesome job editing it and his camera has great quality. It was a very good 16:9 video and my personal favorite! No offense to any of the editors but honestly, Tom's video gave me more "WOW" than Miguel's. I guess Miguel's had better use of original acting. Anyways, good job everyone for the hard work and entertaining footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 , but next year I think I will do better, Im shooting for 18th place now! That's my spot, back off!! Congrats to everyone. I don't think I'll be entering next year either. Just not enough decent footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryH Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Well, I am bringing up the rear. Oh well, next year, I must put donkeys, McDonald's, rodents, and Robb's butt crack in the video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 ^Barry, its only natural for us Floridians to demand a recount! Lets make this like election 00' all over again!!! Colin C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'll be entering next year either. Just not enough decent footage. I think the greatest challenge would be to aim for exactly 20th place, no higher, no lower.

BeemerBoy Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Congrats to the winners! Very well done. I flaked out and forgot to vote, so I can't really complain, but I must say I was a bit surprised that Mark Owens' Busch Gardens video didn't place higher. I thought it was very well executed. Oh well, just like any international competition these days, the Americans must be allergic to the gold medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larrygator Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Honestly, there was not a bad video to choose from. With the number of quirky people I'm surprised "Goat Encounter" couldn't break the Top 20 either. I got a vote from this quirky person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgwfreak Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Congrats to the winners and for our local boys that did good! Congrats to Phil and Alan for taking 5th place! Congrats also to Jarvis and Jonathan. Maybe I'll enter next year since Jarvis won't be showing his face in 07. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMartin777 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Thanks to everyone who voted and the TPR crew! This contest is always a good one and it just keeps getting better. The entries this year were awesomefied and really fun to watch! We have a great idea for a vid made exclusively for the contest next year. We need to get to work on that... along with finishing up about a million more vids for Whootah.com. WHOOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
