Oh no, no offense taken at all chief. Honestly what it is is sometimes I read too fast for my own good. I have gotten really good at skimming internets especially. Combine that with the fact that I'm TERRIBLE with names and you've got how things got messed up.

Most of the time when I am trying to get someone's name right I copy/paste it, which is not to say that I don't know your name. Trouble is, I can't pronounce it. Every time I see your name I look at it and scratch my head thinking "Boy's-lib?" "Bose-lib?" "Bo-ice-lib?" and nothing really seems to sound right. My mind's attempt to deal with the situation has been to skip over the middle letters and in my head I literally read now "B---s_Lib"

*shrug* sounds crazy but it's the truth
and looking at the name "Boss_Lib" in the context, I could see how this would create confusion.

Anyway, no I'm not offended. It's just frustrating sometimes because I wish there were hard and fast rules about such things. I'm not going to dig up any now, but I've seen many instances where the shorter clip changed the spirit of the video and was ruled *notdupe by the community; so much so that without seeing what you quoted in the FAQ I really thought that THAT was the rule (a dupe is the SAME video length and all).

I plan on making a poll about it after lucky is done with his powerpoint ticker poll. I feel though, that the video really is a different video. Most people wont sit through the 10 minute film long enough to even get to the 1 minute clip i posted. But meh, what I like about this place is we're all community driven with rules n such. We'll see what the peeps think and hopefully update the FAQ.

peace

(EDIT) On a completely unrelated side note, I just hopped in a Battlefield 3 server and got banned about 2 minutes in for "Having a racist name"
This is the nn my friends gave me in high school, nothing more. *shrug*

Hi JJ,

I just went by the FAQ:

If a newer submission's video is a clip of content found within an existing post, it will be considered a duplicate unless it meets both these criteria:

The original post is at least 15 minutes in length
The original post is at least 3 times longer than the clip

It's my fault for declaring it a dupe without double checking, but did you note that my video was 59 seconds long, and the other video was 10+ minutes long?

O_O

It's not a duplicate video unless its THE SAME OR NEARLY THE SAME EXACT VIDEO (length included).

Yours is pretty excellent. It's not professional-grade like @Sublime's, but his are in a different category of carving.

I'm still hoping a few more people are just late-comers like yourself. Otherwise, picking the three winners will be easy.

Thanks for that. No hard feelings at all. Please accept my apologies as well if I seemed a bit brash. Glad to have a heated discussion in a (mostly) civilized manner.

I just submitted mine to the list, but I have nothing on the guy who made the walking dead pumpkin

Bummer more people didnt participate :

Hey sorry about whatever we were arguing about earlier too, I tend to get riled up easily these days because no one likes to argue with me anymore it seems (perhaps I should go to law school?) and when I get started I really enjoy the argument for the sake of arguing. Nothing personal chief.

Those are some phenomenal carvings. Did you carve freehand or transfer a sketch? Do you use any professional carving equipment?

Dear Ann,

If I ever meet you, be sure to stick your hand up my ass and jerk your tranny dick off with my shit.

That is all.
