Update on the ABR YouTube contest about Horse Slaughter.

All entries have now been received for the ABR YouTube contest re: Horse Slaughter.

The winning video will be determined by the video with the highest total score, on May 10, at Noon eastern time. The score is based on the number of comments, multiplied by the overall rating of the video, and adding the number of pageviews.

The "leader" as of April 11 is video number 2 with a current score of 3415.5 Obviously the videos that were posted earlier in the contest have an advantage at this stage, but as the next month progresses it's likely that advantage will become less so. Each week over the next month I will update the "leader board".

Also, as of today, the videos collectively have garnered 18,000 page views and 922 comments.
