Good point, DN101. We could incorporate the tag firefly_trailer_contest along with the others, since we hope to rope in casual browsers whose searches call up one or two of the entries under other guises. Then the trailers they stumble upon will link to the others through firefly_trailer_contest. Make sense?

I agree.
As for compiling, a playlist can be created of all the entries at YouTube as well.

So... you wanna decide on an "official" tag we should start slapping on?
fireflytrailercontest
or
firefly_trailer_contest
or something else?

Safe. Should be working in a few minutes.
Hour and a half.

I find that having the spacers allows for broader searching. It posts it as one keyphrase, but seems to also pick out vids with words within the keyphrase, if that makes sense.
So spacers means more people might stumble across the trailers, while making it less helpful for compiling *just* the trailers.
Seems like a lot of the entries have "contest" in their tags, and "Firefly_trailer_contest" picks that up. The tag with no spaces gets nothing as of yet (we'd have to get all contestants to add this one in order for it to work).

1) to make the judging easier, so a conjoined key-phrase like "FireflyTrailer" or "FireflyContest" (no spaces)
The search feature on youtube will not be used for judging purposes. The judges will receive an email ballot from myself with links to each entry on youtube. They then reply to the email ballot with their comments and votes.
Hope this clarifies!

Sounds like a plan. So all entrants should tag their vids on youtube with the following:
firefly
teaser
trailer
promotion
fireflyfans
contest
serenity
episode
[name of episode]
science_fiction
Sci-fi
Joss_Whedon
fireflyfans.net
and our aforementioned and decided upon:
firefly_trailer_contest
With the spacers. Agreed?
I'll put this in the top post when it's completely ironed out.

oops, sorry, I had kinda meant (but didn't say!) for the judging part that it would make it easier for judges AND participants and casual viewers in this community to quickly access all the entries, rather than referring back to an email or this thread where you can't tell one link from the other.
But the intention's moot if we're including "firefly_trailer_contest" anyhoo!
Sounds good, I'll update my entry now.

You can't fit all that in the tags. Just tried it when I uploaded Jaynestown.
