You people really need to get some facts and stop arguing. This tournament was started by a normal player of WoS who wanted to bring up something to do for others to have some fun since all we had before were Stunting Leagues. So idea was to get some editing competition for those who wanted it. This tournament wasn't supposed to be professional, just a friendly competition among friends and of course everyone else was also welcome. Determined you showed what a real judge for editing tournament is that's for sure, you've got lots of experiences with it I can tell. I also understand what you were trying to say about the explanations but judging here on this tournament was supposed to be more simple, and not being looked into microscope. I've been asked for judging and I said that I have no big experience with editing, but still I know some basics and have a good sense for deciding the better. So I said I'll do it since this was supposed to be a simple friendly tournament.
From my point of view about judging on editing of what I look on is mostly sync with music and how well the effects fits. I don't know how every effect is called also so when explaining I keep it nice and simple. I look at it very carefully and simply chose of what I think it looks better for my style of editing and I still stand with my decisions I made. And I believe most of the judges did the same, chose from their "style of what a good edit is" so you should simply respect that. Also explanations were about to be skipped as it always causes drama, but I've spoke to every judge and most of them said it's fine and we can give the explains if you guys want to, but as you see it caused drama and now from what I see there wont be any explains anymore.
Also no-one was expecting that this tournament will become so big and full of GTAS who needs more professional approche or how could I call it. So you're getting a bit unfair to Mustapha, this was his first tournament and when it grown that big it also put lots of burden on his shoulders as he knew requirements have changed. He knew he'll have to make it more professional to please your requirements. That's why I also helped him out there and make some space on the forums for it to be pulled off. He's doing his best and worrying for this to work nicely for all of you and all you do is complain. So everyone stop bitching and deal with it of how it is and have fun!
