This thread is going to be a success! Me and goumas13 thought of this thread. When he gets on I'll tell him to come here and tell you what he is going to do. What you are going to do is make a movie using these directions.

Title:
Plot:
Setting:
Characters:
Movie Cover: (picture from photobucket)

There are going to be two judges for each competition. Each competition will be two weeks long. And the winner will receive a merit by Carlie. You cannot win twice.

Now all I need is to have two judges.

First competition is going to start when I have two judges to judge the movies. It will end on July 24th. Get Thinking!!!!

Title: "And i lol'd"
Plot: Two guys make a bet about who can fund the best smiley or something.
Setting: Interwebz
Characters: Billy Mays and Vince Shlomi
Movie Cover: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fb/718smiley.svg/300px-718smiley.svg.png


Of course it'd be more detailed, but that's what we fill out and you judge amirite?

So what in general do the judges do? Rate their movie out of 5 stars or something?

I think, Tennisman, you should make the rules/description of what to do more detailed, since people are confused and are making attempts with

Of course it'd be more detailed
in the end. (No offence)

Yes MagiX that is exactly how you do it.

And firetail, you would meet up with Sebi on your profile and talk it over on who you think should win.

I will strongly recommend that you take judging of any sort to somewhere more private than your profile comments.

That aside:

Is what MagiX exactly how you intend the entries to be (that, or with more description of it)? Or should entrants make actual movies?

Like I said, they dont have to make actual movies. They just have to make a description of it and a cover. They can do whatever different perks they want to make it look a little better.

Well, for this to be more "Official" it would make sense that the entries were a little more descriptive and longer, because one line does not work for a merit prize. Well, That's just my opinion,

I hope you know MagiX's entry was just an example right? I would hope that they put a lot of thought into there movie. So if nobody wants to make an entry then I will and get the merit.

Yes. Mine was just an very, very short example to see if "iwasdoinitrite".

Methinks there should be a specific theme to follow for each week/month (whichever you go by)

You, uh, can't really do that...

But I see now why you wanted someone else to judge... >_>

I can't catch Sebi at the exact same time on profile comments to easily discuss the winner. We either need to find a private chat or lessen it down to one judge.
