    The WT09 is over which means it's time for the UPSB Collab.

    Please vote on the major decisions we will have to take on the collab.

    The most important is whether we want something ambitious or just pure good spinning.

    The other is whether we want to accept any spinners on UPSB or only "UPSB" spinners.

    I have been waiting for this since i joined UPSB.

    I don't think UPSB should have a new concepts type of collab, or at least not in its First. I think we should stick with normal great spinning.

    What do you mean by "simple" theme? Anyway, this collab should be made only if it shows something different, not the same stuff we've seen a hundred times.

    I think a 'normal' collab with only the UPSB community would be great. I mean, we're one of the few communities who hasn't made a good collab.
    I think a preferable method would be to allow video submissions for ambition.

    I doubt I'm good enough to be in this collab >_<

    damn, all my choices are losing

    well i felt like we should do something innovative, i mean the main argument against it seems to be that we could end up screwing it up and sucking, but i dont really think that's going to happen

    simple just means very loose organization of the videos, like telling people vaguely what to do instead of giving no instructions at all (which is standard)
    simple theme also possibly means a theme which has been already used before

    i really think by having invitations would be a good way to filter, but on the other hand, people who could have been in might not.........

    how about people vote who they want in and the person can agree if they want to be in or not?

    as in one of the ways of entering...

    People that should be allowed are people who visit UPSB often. This includes people like Sfsr.

    Of course we need to be ambitious, but if this is not possible then we'll settle for pure good spinning.

    do you visit more JEB or UPSB, if you visit more UPSB, then UPSB is your main board

    I'm basically for standard, but I still think we could make a collab containing both pure awesome spinning and innovation.
    I think we should allow sign up and then filtering... it's a UPSB collab, so every member which thinks UPSB is his main board could get a chance...

    not neccesarily... it has been mentioned before that UPSB is much more of a recreational board in terms of just talking to people than any other pen spinning board....

    Here's what I would like:

    A "simple" theme based collab with people that would be able to represent UPSB in World Cup 2010. If you have followed the last Podcast, you might have heard that the battles in the World Cup are probably going to be theme based. That's why I would like everyone to send a video showing what theme s/he would fit most. Like showing off your speciality. This might not only make for a decent, well-varied collab, it will also be a warning to the other communities: Watch out, we got skill too.

    I know you guys are good spinners, we, guys like Vicgotgame, ChauTran, and me, are going to get company from uprising talent like Pen Ninja, Charlie, who already was in the WT, Shadowserpant, and that's only naming a few. If each one of us cranks out the thing we do best, this collab will be really nice, in my opinion.

    So here's what I want. Active UPSB members who would be UPSB enough allowed to participate in the WC10, to film a combo doing what they do best, whether it be a trick-family, style-based combo or just full difficulty, creativity or smoothness. I'd love a title to come along with the collab, but that doesn't seem to happen, haha.

    I second that idea

    Why not use both titles? Random example: UPSB 1st: The Beginning.

    I'm all for letting the main community in and filtering until you get the best videos for the collab. Something innovative might be overly ambitious and fall apart.

    even without a theme, won't people film a combo of what they do best anyway... since that's what makes them look good?
