Nico randomly kicked me shilling their Premium membership so I had to stop and restart. So it might be a multi-parter on my end. Apparently way more people are watching than I thought (free accounts get temp kicked).

I have to tab out and restart fresh. It's happened twice. Welcome to Nico Nico. LOL
Okie dokie. They will announce winners (if any) on the website. Trying to find out when. Broadcast was 2 hours long. A lot of banter back and forth and they had way too many obstacles to go through live. (they thought it would be much less but fans went all out). They were extremely surprised how many foreigners participated.

So pretty much if your obstacle wasn't shown that doesn't mean it's out of the running? Good to know

They didn't seem to show a lot of the obstacle ideas, and most of the second half didn't involve showing any ideas at all. Was there a lack of submissions to allot for the entire two hours, or were many of those which were not shown too similar to those that were shown? I'm just a bit confused on what exactly was going on. Also, I did successfully record the whole thing. I only had to refresh once, and the part I missed was very brief (less than a minute). I should have it available within a few hours for everyone who couldn't make it.

I recorded the video but not sure where the best place/most legal place to upload it is. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Some of the translations (I'll get to them on my blog). body prop was removed because it was unfair to different body types and it was difficult to properly adjust to everyone's arms, body length. They want a fair obstacle for everyone. They also laughed because the old guy on the left was too dense to figure out what it was. .and the fact that a foreigner did it. Everyone was joking at him for being dense. Thanks for that, Arsenette. It looks like one of them did a small-scale mock-up, too? Those photos weren't mine. Either that or someone else had a similar idea.

Oh they had a LOT more they didn't show. Half of them had 3-4 pages of instructions or multiple entries per person. So they have to take them all back and see them 1 by 1. The 2nd half they were talking about how they wanted guests but none of the competitors wanted to come. He even called them out. So he got on the phone and called Hioki. He said it was too late to call Yamada since he will most likely be asleep. LOL He said if they do another one they will call Yamada early before he goes to bed.
Thanks for recording it! Mine paused 3 times.

Well, here's my cutting room floor entry (assuming it got there, of course): BACK Attachment DeletedFRONT Attachment DeletedIt's meant to be a fairly simple obstacle in the vein of the Hedgehog. The instructions were auto-translated, so I hope this is what it says: "① central platform is rotated in the opposite direction" "② platform has to be rotated at a speed sufficient to be a difficult jump However, it is not fast enough, to make people fly" "③ people can try to be carefully jump Or simply as spin bridge, please try to run through it" I didn't give exact size/speed/gap lengths, so as to be more open-ended.

Curious if they got more foreigner entries than Japanese. LOL Though it did answer some of my questions. The Japanese fans also have no concept of Physics. Aahahahhahahaha. Inui's comments were brutal as expected. Just happy people get to see his personality. He's a riot to listen to.

Here's my recording (all in one video file). As a bonus, in it you also get to see everyone's comments via the chat.

Floating chairs is reminiscent of that infamous floating couch sasukepdia edit.
I can't believe I've never thought of the Sasuke Cliff-hanger before.
Also the chess board idea is awesome.
