Yesterday was the practice frame. It doesn't count for scoring. Just a frame to let folks get a feel for things and check the various arena settings.

Frames 1-4 are on each Saturday in June, 3 pm Eastern US time.

Post by: Brooke on May 30, 2016, 10:05:58 PM: Guys, when you make 1080p AH vids, what bit rate do you use for creating the video?

Also, how big is a 5 minute 1080p AH video for you typically?
