If somehow youtube takes it down you could always try uploading it on another site then.

Ok I guess I have to verify myself.

I'm a long time youtuber. Www.techclash.me I have sponsors and had over 300,000 video views before my channel was hacked earlier this year. That is why it's in a disheveled mess but that's not the point. The point is I really know what I'm talking about. If this was a robot and you told me something Id probally agree because I'm not that knowledgeable. But YouTube and Internet copyright laws Is my cup of tea. I've had friends who included songs in videos and have gotten copy right flagged. YouTube has a very good filter system for them now so it's getting more and more common. I personally have music libraries that you guys can't get access to(YouTube partnership) but I used machinima sound for many years and can guarantee it has what you need. It's not worth a copyright take down believe me. Your account will get flagged and you will get a strike leading to account deactivation; I've seen it done its not fun. YouTube Has a filter to check soundtracks what it doesn't have is a filter in the description to see if credit was given. Youtube is a huge company with little to no support so they could care less if their algorithm incorrectly flagged your video. The only way to fix it is getting in contact with the pr of the music label(it's easier to get in contact with the president than those people).

Conclussion

Use royalty music its not worth it

One of my son's FLL tournament videos was taken down due to the music playing in the background when the video was recorded. I guess we would have to "mess up" the audio to make the music unrecognizable and re-post the video.

Looking forward to this amazing event! Hopefully we'll see some "game-breaking" robots this year.

Do you guys have an approximate idea of how long Premier Night will be this year? I know a lot of that depends on the number of submissions.

I think we already have (cough, cough, *148*) but I'm sure there are more to come!

Since this year falls on a school night, we will try to keep it shorter but as you mentioned, it's all dependent on the number of submissions.

As long as you post the steam as you did on youtube last year, i think you will be good in that sense (especially for the west coast )

[Caleb Sykes]

Are you planning to order the videos in any particular way? I believe that the order last year was randomized.

My suggestion would be to group the videos based on the region the team is in and/or the event(s) at which they will be competing. I think it would be really cool to see two good videos back to back knowing that those great teams will be playing against each other at X regional or maybe at Y district championship. This will be especially interesting if the robots have complementary features, since there might be a chance they end up on an alliance together.

Regardless, I'm sure it will be an awesome show and I'm looking forward to it!

Ordering by regions would be pretty cool imho. You could check out teams you are competing against without remembering every single team going to your regionals.

Do you guys have a final number of teams presenting their robot on premiere night?

[Boltman]

Please post on YOUTube for the West Coast.

2607 put in a video for the first time! I wonder how many MAR teams we will see represented, and we all can't wait to see the show tomorrow

[Orion.DeYoe]

Stellar Robotics has submitted our video and can't wait to show off our rookie season creation!

Will there be a list of teams who have submitted posted before the show?

[Tom Bottiglieri]

You are going to show 71 videos?
