Just so we are clear, We as videosift posters are allowed to sift our own videos ( from our own Youtube account etc. ) in order to participate in this contest ? Thats how I read it, I submit my own video from my own source and I wont get banned for self link. Neat ! Honest question here. Makes it easier for me.
What I mean is it like the other contests where I can submit my own materiel or is it just for other video submissions like usual.
.. Or is this just a contest for outsourced links with a coffee focus, regular day but at the end of it you get a prize ? ?
You can understand my confusion.
Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
The second one. Standard VideoSift rules apply on self-linking. If we're suspending the rules we'll spell it out - as that would be a big deal. BTW I love my VideoSift mug. I can confirm it works beautifully with an Aeropress.

I come from a rather coffee obsessed city, in fact the guy in this video has (or had) a cafe here, after moving from Tasmania:

Only if there's a mug in it. I want to drink my pie-soup out of this glorious containment thingy!
Don't say I didn't try hard enough:

(1)....Is there any way of putting up some kind of chart to show who's winning?
(2).... Can you enter as many times as you like?
Reason for asking about the chart is 'cos I expect this compo to have a lot of entries & it'll be difficult to keep track of them all.

@Barseps
you can use this site
(it's the search with The title of this sift talk as parameter)

I think maybe I should just concede.
I don't think I can compete with a video about poo.
Here's more about the mystical connection between poo and coffee

See the link added to the body of the post above.
Yes, there's no limit on entries, but there is a limit of one prize per entrant.
I thought this was neat, but a little boring/long to post.

Awarding lucky760 with one star point for this contribution to VideoSift - declared quality by critical_d.
I will buy 1 for $10 if it's waaaay larger...I mean RIDICULOUSLY NOVELTY large or a travel mug (at least 24 oz). You see, coffee makes my world spin. I'm like @dag, but without the self-control.
Okay, here's one more for the contest! It's really awesome vintage cheese. I imagine the cast of Mad Men starring in it... http://videosift.com/video/This-is-Coffee-1961

And it's another one from me
This is great, we have tons of submissions and from lots of people! This must be one of the most popular Giveaways so far!
Please be sure you adhere to the contest's eligibility requirements.
It has come to my attention that one or more videos submitted are not centered around the requisite main subject of coffee. It is not enough that your entry contain references to coffee or that there is coffee (or a coffee shop) in the video.
In order for your entry to be valid, the primary focus of your video must be coffee.
That is all. Please go about your business.

A very popular contest--but I fear for @lucky760's sanity.
As a group we sifters don't really follow rules very well.
