NTV Pier Screenings: Vote Now!
The NewTeeVee Pier Screenings event is only two days away. We are closing voting at midnight PST tonight, so we really would love your help in choosing the top six contenders. It’s not too hard — the videos are really good, and you don’t have to watch all of them to cast your votes. Just watch a video and give it as many stars as you think it deserves.
Craig made this fun little promo for the event, check it out:
If you’d still like to attend, we had previously sold out of as many tickets as we thought we would offer, but decided to open up a few more just in case. So head over to the Eventbrite page and register.
The videos will be dissected by our cast of angry judges: Irina Slutsky of PodTech, Nick Douglas of Look Shiny, and Jackson West of NewTeeVee (unfortunately Veronica Belmont had to go to an emergency Star Wars convention, but she’ll be back later this summer to judge). Then the audience will choose winners to get cash and pageviews from being featured by our sponsor Metacafe.
Please go and vote! We’re putting procrastinatory fodder right at your fingertips, what are you waiting for?

Hello!
Quick question — are the top 6 videos going to be the ones that have the most ratings? Or the best score? Or some sort of combination of both?
Excellent question, Yuri. The top six videos will be chosen based on best average score, with a significant number of votes. What is significant will be determined after voting closes tonight — we will probably do something like eliminate the bottom third of videos as measured by number (not score) of votes. For now I’ll say the formula is a secret so as to prevent gaming. :)
Thank you, Liz! I pride myself on asking really, really good questions.
That sounds good. And secretive! You guys are like ninjas.
