Can you enter more than one video?

Can Staff enter the contest?

This is going to rock!!!

staff not allowed :)

Really looking forward to this, should prove to be an enjoyable yet competitive challenge :D

[COMMENT FAILED]

yay! maybe all of those film classes i took will pay off :D  Awesome !!

Great idea ;) I don't have any software for making videos or any experience in it, I would try otherwise.

if they are the same or equal percentages of views  , how the board consider who will win ?

Have you a smart phone even? you could always use that;)

I've already started... It's going to knock you guy's socks off!

debating wheather or not to enter. I don't think chess.conm is ready to see me yet.

No, they are still rare in Poland :)

Have you tried searching ebay and amazon, they have great cameras and software to help you edit and you can also download free trials for abode.com and they have lots of tutorials on how to edit

BRING IT ON

can I make as much as i want like 5 or somting
