Yay! People are finally watching it. Thanks poisontaffy for giving the first oppinions on it, I am hoping that everyone at least says their fav/least fav parts. I'm glad you thought the music was too intense hehe, and yeah there were supposed to be music credits, but I accidently suppressed the text layer, which I will re render in a bit. :c) I'm sorry you had to watch it over 9 hours, it would have been way more intense to watch it over 34 minutes :c) :c)

Tuukka, you are silent as a silencer.


I'm also disappointed at the lack of European talent showcased, but my first impression was, "Yes! This is so awesome!" obviously. The good definitely outweighs the bad, of which there isn't much. I really liked that players had their own sections, as opposed to WTS1 where it was all kind of a cufluffle (and subsequently made it difficult to go back and watch parts by particular players). It made me happy that the first player's section spanned beyond the first part of the video, but then after a bit it felt like his section could have been condensed and made room for other players. I liked the BAP induction shots. You're good at that.

The music was kinda weird at times, but you made it fit for most of it. I'm mostly impressed that you did all of this on a point and shoot digital camera (yes?)!!!! I was excited to see the one Finnish player with his own section, but then it ended way too soon. And then the single shots of a couple Poles were just teasers -- it was at that point that I realized I wasn't going to see much of them :(

I wonder if you have excess footage that will one day produce a RTS2...

How do I put this? Yeah, I didn't try to favorite players. I used the footage that I had, so I guess when I filmed a lot of the poles, australians, etc. I just didnt have good timing. I had bad european filming karma.

I DID want to have as many players as I could... just for the record :c)

Watched! I liked how the music flowed with the vid. Intense shred calls for intense music! My favorite parts were definitely in the 20% smiles, though.

My god. The Finnish section made me squirm. It is like, you took the music that is ALWAYS PLAYING in my head when I'm with that dexful human and just tossed it for the public to feast on.

By the way Sam, if you have ANY JUHO footage at all...Atw->drop, for example, I would love to see it. If I can even take Juho drops and learn to make mine as gorgeous, then I'll do so.

Great video. No complaints, outside of it not being about 7 hours long.

Almost there!

Uploading fixed credits now. As soon as its done I'll post it here on modified.. Please still donate if you can :c)

I know it's up now, and this is not quite enough, but I've sent you 5$ (all I have left in my paypal) in hopes of you putting up a nice high-quality downloadable link at some point :)

Can't wait to check this out, some of your early works were the biggest inspiration for me video-wise, like ever.

Thanks for making it Sam. Evan is so good.

I liked the intro a lot; seeing everyone we chilled with, and that footage I shot of you towing Manna was in there :-)

And when the shred started and you had all those ridiculously hard moves it was great.

I'm glad I got to see Anssi's new move BS that you were so excited to get on tape, that I missed while standing right next to him, but watching the Juho, Tuuka, Phil and someone else circle.

I think the music was cool. The zoomed shots were a little meh, sometimes cause you couldn't see what was happening, but I have liked your zooming in the past.
The construction floor shots were cool. I like ninja-esque sneakings.
