Any possibility if the 45 seconds limit could be increased to 60 seconds or would there be any kind of penalty if a player submits a video of 60 seconds (in length) to enter the competition?


The video itself has to be 45 seconds or under; if you have graphics at the start or end of the video (i.e. a brief introduction or a closing image with the hashtag), then we're allowing an extra 10 seconds for that, bringing it up to 55 seconds.

If the actual content of the video is over 45 seconds though, we can't put it into the gallery for consideration.

As long as the video is submitted with the hashtag or on facebook, does the title still have to be "Wish You Were In RuneScape"?


It does, yes. However, it doesn't have to be #WishYouWereInRuneScape - it can be 'Wish You Were In RuneScape Competition Entry' or something like that.

'After the competition deadline has passed, we’ll display all of the videos in a Facebook gallery – the five videos which receive the most ‘likes’ by midnight on Sunday, July 20th, will go forward to be judged by our team of expert Jmod judges.'

Don't you feel that the videos at the front of the gallery will receive the most views, and hence the most likes on Facebook, and the videos at the back will gain a fraction of the views compared to the first videos? I doubt that everyone looking at the videos will want to trudge through hundreds of ~45 second video entries, regardless of quality.

I think there could be a much fairer way to do this, rather than having the order of the videos factor into which ones get through so heavily.

The order of videos in the gallery will appear randomly to a new user, so there won't be any 'favouritism'. We're also going to hide the number of views, so people won't know what a 'popular' video is :)

"Competition begins on Wednesday, July 2nd 2014, at 10am BST, and ends on Sunday, July 20th 2014 at 11.59pm BST."


"After the competition deadline has passed, we’ll display all of the videos in a Facebook gallery – the five videos which receive the most ‘likes’ by midnight on Sunday, July 20th, will go forward to be judged by our team of expert Jmod judges."

Sorry but a bit confused about the whole dates, so when do video entries stop and the whole facebook gallery begin?

Good Luck to all who enter!! :D !
