Okay, so this is the latest of several self-linked videos submitted for this Doritos viral commercial thing. Subbie is trying to win $10,000, and while I wish him good luck self-linking is a clear violation of the terms of use, blah, blah, blah. I would have insta-banned, but it wasn't an option available for some reason. *edit*- I now know why I couldn't instaban this guy- it's because I instabanned another Doritos guy yesterday. Checks and balances- fair enough.

I've got a little bit of an issue with these- a couple of contestants have been hijacking the mailing list at FreeCycle to get attention for their commercials. I'm an admin there and have spent too much time trying to play whack-a-mole for the last few days- it's almost like a DDOS attack.

I agree. If its a self-linked vid, it should be banned.

It smells like a selflink, but is it?

Member since July, I'd like to hear what LilPixel has to say.
Is this video made by you or hosted on your youtube account LilPixel?

It's hosted on the Doritos Canada channel- followed the trail of comments and videos to this user here http://www.youtube.com/user/9096361. Same guy featured in all 3 videos. Seems like a talented-enough fellow, but this isn't the forum for a self-linking viral video contest. Not to say that a regular user couldn't choose to submit some of the better ones, but self-linking is the first rule of Fight Club.

This video was made by someone at my university, and I find it to be a legitimately good video, contest aside, so I posted it. I dont even especially like the guy. Its just a very interesting technique.

Also, the youtube account linked above is owned by yet another member of my university, but not the creator of the video either.

*return

Fair enough.

Moving this video to LilPixel's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

Any video made under the pretense of specifically creating a viral video is flawed from the outset, imho.
