Some 8 months ago or so, the Video of the Month competition started. Since then, we have been gifted with some absolutely fanstastic videos across all the TW series. The competition has always been healthy with some excellent video makers competitors entering some of their most creative work around in the monthly competition. I, personally, would like to thank everyone who has competed in these competitions so far and hope it continues into 2011 and beyond!
- In 2010, we had 8 VOTM competitions. All the winning entries of each VOTM competition of 2010 are being automatically entered into the TWC Video of 2010 competition.
- The poll will last for two weeks
- The reward will be a VOTM point and the winning video being put into a TWC front page annoucement.
The cool thing about this comp and this field, is that each vid has its own unique strengths, and a few weaknesses (not many). If you picked one at random and it was the winner, you couldn't find a good argument why it shouldn't win over the others.
The same could also be said for some of the monthly vids that just got squeezed out. There were some amazing vids not on this list. A testament to how this community has grown, really

The first post doesn't say whose idea it is for this vid of the year competition, but congratulation to him/her/them (??).
Still too undecided to vote.
Was it your idea? Where did you suggest it? There were originally the semi-annual awards in the VOTM rules, but we forgot about that so we've changed it to a annual one, it was always intended to have a semi-annual or in this case annual competition since the original rules were first written all those months ago.
But seriously, If you really want to claim the credit for the 'Idea', I have no problem you having it sir.

Muh signature is so out of date all muh pictures died.
you misread my post. I was congratulating whoever it was...
If I recall, John Doe and Lewis and Legio and myself were all pitching in for ideas at the time...so John it might have been you I wish I could confirm that...it would be cool to call the annual comp the "John Doe Awards" [insert ironic statement here]
I am glad this VOTM has come to be part of TWC, back then, I think there was one earlier less successful VOTM, handled by Gaius Baltar or my half hearted susggestion 4 years ago. But thanks to the new crop of video makers. They made it possible to have this competition thrive. The awesome video makers that inspired new ones to do it and they too becoming awesome.
Oh and voted.
I'm excited for 2011.
Toboe, Megadokuro, Feinar, and alot more still havent won yet, I wonder what vid will take them a VOTM win.

3 fantastic artists, and omissions from this list I am sure is simply because the VOTM didn't run the whole year of 2010. Naxzul666 is the other obvious one...a victory from him is imminent and overdue.
