BPS "Showdown" - PRIZES

[rx2]

Actually, I shouldn't have deleted the video from my hard drive. For some reason, I have a bad habit of deleting things that I don't need to. So, I think that that part is my fault.

Anyhow, if you do get the vid, I have the information so that I may put it up at full res. I do want to make sure that you know that I am not trying to be difficult. I just don't want to be responsible for miscalculating, and I honestly don't think that I could have made an accurate call. The number I would have gotten would either have been too high, or too low, and that isn't fair for anyone.

As for 68magowner, I will do an alaysis of the video tonight. I should be able to get the sound from it just fine, although I don't know if everyone finds the video acceptible.

[SteelSoul]

Yeah I have been taking a from this thread

I really thought people would be sending in tons of vid's but so far I have seen 3 or 4

I am ready to do some number crunching but as I said I only see 3 or 4 diffrent people that have submitted vids.

I am in contact with rx2 and we will get everything done.

This is yalls mission

MAKE SOME VIDS


peace

I will try to get some video this weekend.

Here is the analysis for 68magOwner. Over five seconds of the fastest portion of the video, I counted 79 shots, for an average of 15.8 bps. Over eight seconds, the number was 124, or 15.5 bps. The highest total for one second was 16 shots fired. Now, some people have expressed concern over the quality of the video, and the fact that the framerate does not capture the trigger pulls properly, and you cannot thus correlate every shot to a pull. Perhaps lohman could make an official decision on the viability of this video. Whatever the decision, here is the waveform image.

Judging by what I saw of the finger movements in the video provided, I would be surprised if this were a legitimately pulled entry.

68magowner -- although I am not the authority on this competition, I think you should provide a full-rate sample (29 fps) so there are at least a few freames per pull.

If it makes any difference, I can vouch for the fact that he can shoot that fast, and his gun is 100% legal.

It doesn't. The whole point of this thread is not to rely on anyone's words.

Thanks Matt, anyway, i dont think my digicam can take any more than 13fps, so, if people dont want to trust me, i suppose im out of luck, at least i know (verified) how quick i can shoot, (not shabby), and, im happy with gaining that knowledge, so, even if not awarded a prize, i suppose i can look on the bright side and at least i gained something.

[matmc89]

figured I'd enter a vid....so I shot 3 pods trying to get a good one, well my dad deleted them thinking you have to delete vids on memory stick before you could record another one.

edit: Realized the vid was terrible, I used a digi cam and it looks like my fingers aren't moving...and it's slow. I will use a real camera and make new vid tommorow.

matt, did read the rules? need tank jarring and whatnot, anyway, your framerate is even worse than mine, so, i dont feel so ghetto anymore

[matmc89]

I had tank jarring, but..dad deleted those vids.
New one will be up today with all of that and good quality.

I have a problem here. There are some vidoes of some exceptional speed posted here. Let me state first off that I do not question those who put them up here, and I beleive I have run into an issue with technology. The frame rates simply do not allow me to verify the legal modes of firing that the rules required. Do I dq someone who did very well over a technicality because the rules are clear or do I accept it and take the risk that something fishy went on (not that I beleive this happened). Opinions?

[drg]

I can say from personal experience that it's very easy to unintentionally have shots added to a string for various reasons. In the case of a whole lot, like 4 or 5 bps it would be obvious, but 1 or 2 extra bps can be almost invisible to a person who has not truly, knnowingly fired "legally" before (that person was me, before this contest).

Now I do not know the people who posted and I realize that since I am entered my comments have to be taken with a grain of salt. But what I see in the videos would indicate to me more that these are NOT legal pulls, due to what I see in the finger movements of the frames that ARE there. They just don't seem consistenty with a fast pull, too hesitant and uneven, and done with the innermost phalange (third segment of the finger, doesn't seem like the fastest segment). But this could very well be a product of the extremely low framerate and low resolution.

i didnt want to read all the pages to see if this was already adressed but... how many videos can we submit? i have a few markers i want to try out (including a pump).

[MonsterMag]

so what videos are qestionable?
