There's an (ever growing) thread answering all your questions here: http://www.etsy.com/forums_thread.php?thread_id=6171419 But to your specific question, PoPkO, I wrote: > Identifiable people is the difference between an individual face and a crowd. You could have a crowd scene with 100 people, and that would be fine. Or you could have a scene with four people talking, and that wouldn't be (since the rules state a maximum of three). The answer as to why is straightforward: the more identifiable people in the video, the more releases that will need to be obtained for consideration as a finalist. So we chose three as a reasonable and manageable number.

I've really enjoyed watching the videos. I have noticed, however, that some are getting very low scores from the maker of another. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things, does it? Hopefully it is not in spite, particularly because this is not a popularity contest.

i'm kind of worried :S i just uploaded my video and i know it takes a bit to be processed and approved by them etsy gods but when i played the i guess preview of it (when it finished uploading), it didn't show the entire 29 seconds of my video and the sound went all choppy and horrible... should i continue to or stop worrying?
