Re: MPPRS - Am I just in a bad mood?

In Response To: MPPRS - Am I just in a bad mood? (Miguel Chavez)

: Is the MPPRS really 'working' when a vid like Mere's HJ is released? Maybe it
: bothers me on a different level... showing some wankish behavior is not
: cool to me. But it was especially interesting seeing the claim that the
: vid had been through 'the process' and made better!?

I should link you with the first version he submitted. I think I agree with you that it's not quite up to the standards I'd hoped for when we started... but I think a lot of the reviewers were actually judging it against the original, not against an absolute standard.

: OK, I'm probably just a goody-two shoes and should shutup. Still, my opinion
: of the MPPRS process has changed ever so slightly.

Hehe - you're gonna be even MORE unhappy later today; we have another montage that made it through that isn't really 'up there', in my opinion.

I'm starting to see part of the problem: when the pool of reviewers was small, and hand-picked, the quality of released movies was quite high - but some of the same problems that existed BEFORE the MPRRS was set up were still there; movies languished for a while, because people didn't have the time to watch all the movies that were coming in.

So we opened up the reviewer pool; we quadrupled it, in fact. (Not all at once; it was two or three steps.) We're back to a reasonable review per movie time... but the quality is dropping significantly (in my opinion, of course - not that of the reviewers).

I'm going to release the two movies that have gone through the system and passed... but again, we're going to tweak things to try and bring the quality back up.

It's a work in progress. We haven't figured out all the angles yet, and each time we change something, we see consequences we hadn't thought through. I'm confident, however, that in time the overall quality of the released films will be higher than it was before we started - and that we'll be letting fewer vids fall through the cracks.
