Obsessive 24 - The mods don't create one; sometimes a Festividder does, like I think Greensilver put one up last year.

I see! I hope someone does one this year then.

Is anyone else having problems with vids taking forever and a day to load?

I'm thinking it's a traffic issue but, want to make sure it's not just my computer for some reason.

I haven't had any trouble with slow streaming, but after a few Viddler vids in a row, it refuses to play for me and I keep having to restart IE.

I just start/stop a few to get them to load, then go off and read something and then come back to them, and by the time I come back to them it's fifteen minutes later so all is good and I can't tell if they load slow or not.

Yes, it's not totally unwatchable, but it's kind of frustrating. I've been mostly watching the vids that are hosted elsewhere.

EEE! So Pleased ;D

I'm unfortunately going to have to ration time watching and reading since I'm rather behind with school things, but this is so cool!

I very much second what people were saying about feedback before, even though I've basically only made two vids at this point.

[obsessive24]

Guess the vidder post is up, although not many guesses as of yet.

[obsessive24]

So now everyone's hopefully had a chance to look at some festivids, what are some of your favourites that you've seen?

The ones that I just had to download immediately to my ipod are:

- Me Against the Music (Red)

- Long Night's Journey Into Day (28 Days Later)

- Hot in Herre (Cabaret)

- We Lay in Caves (Virtuality)

There are loads more that I loved, but those ones in particular have captured my imagination.

I'm still so very much in love with the three vids I received

- Feeling like A Ghost (Bubba Ho-Tep)

- Shine (Thelma & Louise)

- Come as You Are (Universal Soldier)


I also watched a lot of other vids which were awesome, but I still have some left

I have... a very long recs list in the works. Should we post links to recs posts here or in the recs forum?

So far though, my favorites are:

-If You See Kate (Sugar Rush) - the one made for me!
-Fly (Parks and Rec)
-Firework (Whip It)
-You Make Me Feel So Young (Mary Poppins)
-Love Will Win (E.T.)
-So Bohemian Like You and Let's Go To The Mall (both for Clueless)

Ah I love so many! I'll have to do a rec list at some point. I've seen a couple of people now saying how many vids they've made to make the guessing a little easier. How many of you have done more than one? I've made four this year which is one more than last.

[obsessive24]

4!! I thought you did 2! Now I'll never guess which [other two] you made.
(As I feel rather good about guessing you for both Me Against the Music and the Tangled vid. ;D )

I made 2. But they're probably not what people seem to think they are.

[charmax]

Yes, because I'm sure you've made one about kittens and rainbows. ;D I'm going to have to get guessing again but I still stand by my first choice, for you.

[obsessive24]

*shifty eyes indeed*

[dragonchic]

Papa's Got a Brand New Bag (Maru the Cat) is currently my go-to vid for a pick-me-up. ;D Love it.

I second Nicky's at four vids. So hm, maybe a good chunk of the guesses for you ARE right.

I made three. No comment on whether or not they are what people seem to think they are.
