BPS "Showdown" - PRIZES

[jenarelJAM]

Those who have already entered will undoubtedly want less competition, but it's your call since its your thread and your contest.

Thanks drg, i emailed it to beemer already, but I can email it to you as well.

Me , I want 2nd

Is that a serious honest objection?

[jenarelJAM]

one thing that I think would be good, would be to get those who plan on making vids to put their name down now(or soon) so that we know who else is making a vid. If nobody else plans on it, it just kindof prolongs the decisions.

Is that a serious honest objection?

Yes because I dont have acess to another digital Camcorder anymore. My marker is alot faster now , so I could prob pull around 13-14.

On one hand, it would be nice to have more entries to make the competition more exciting. On the other it is a little unfair to those who have made the original deadline. I tend to lean toward ending it on time and letting people kick themselves for not entrying a possibly winning video. I suspect we'll just get one or two more entries and a whole lot of "I'm planning to enter"s that never pan out.

jenarelJam -- it's up to you whether you want to email to me or not. I was just going to do it so you could get it hosted somewhere.

Were you analyzers able to get jenareljam's video?

Sorry about the delay. I was having trouble with a bus shorting in my computer, and it wouldn't work properly. I'll get that analysis up tonight, as soon as I get everything back in place.

[jenarelJAM]

thats fine, i'm working for my dad these days from like 8 in the morning til 7 at night, so I'm kinda busy... i didnt even get a chance to pop on here for 5 miinutes last night even. Whenever it's convenient is fine. Thanks again.

Lohman, i've got another question, even though I've already entered, can i submit another video if I can get my raking technique to work with my gun? I was kinda bummed when i found out that the sear doesnt reset fast enough or whatever the problem is... If I can get it to work, I believe I can drastically increase my bps, but in your first page, you say something about not wanting to sort through "two hours of video" so I'm asking... Thanks

Here is the data for the official submission for jenarelJAM. Over five seconds, there were 60 balls fired, for an average of 12 BPS. Over eight seconds, the total was 96, and the average was, once again, 12 BPS. The video started out fast, but he quickly dropped a few shots, and ended up dropping several shots over the course of the clip. The pace was a VERY solid 12 BPS, and he showed no sign of slowing down toward the end, although the initial burst of 8 or so shots was the fastest, after which he dropped a couple of shots and settled in. The official number from me is 12 BPS. Here is the image of the waveform.

[jenarelJAM]

wow, thats kinda funny, I'm happy with that, but I want to take another vid soon. i'll try to take it w/o the scuba tho... i had two takes that screwed up because of that. the first one, i shot about 100 balls, and then my tank ran out(i forgot to turn on the scuba... ) on the second one, my memory card ran full, so it cut out after 3 seconds or so, which wouldnt have happened if i hadn't screwed up on the first one. the third time I did everything right, except it wasn't fast enough lol.
oh well, $90 is a lot of money, but not an AMAZINGLY large amount, I made that much today(although I worked 10 hours to get it)
theres always next time
