So? This year's contest info would be....?
Just curious if the rules are somewhere on the site. I can't seem to find them. At least a deadline would be useful?
Please and thanks!

We're still working on the rules and some formatting things, so they are not currently on the site. They should be up in the next few weeks.
Thanks for your patience.

It is of the utmost importance we know how long we can procrastinate for.

Can't agree with this more. Dear God, I have been working well on my AMV for a bit now, and haven't touched it since about December 17th. Sucks too. Loving it so far.

I need to re-work the page's content to flow better and be easier to read. That and Adam got me the last info just the other week, so it's taken a backseat in my queue.
While I can't say just yet when the deadline is, you'd be a fool not to start soon

Oh, the videos are started. We just need to know when it's mandatory to turn procrastination mode off.

I'll have something better for everyone. And another entry if I can find the time and energy to do it. Been getting abducted onto staffing too many cons myself lately.MidnightSiren182 wrote:And Bashar, will you be stunning us again with something akin to Ode to Audio?

Re: So? This year's contest info would be....?
In past years, the rule has been "less than one year old" and whether it was on YT or sent to other contests first didn't matter, and each editor was allowed to enter up to two videos.yuukihana wrote:Hi there O.o ive been making amv's for quite a while, and am looking to join in this years contest (ill be patients and wait for more info, dnt worry ^.^) but i was jut wondering weather or not you allow us to submit our amv's to youtube anytime before the contest?

But as you mentioned, the rules for this year haven't gone up yet, so we don't know for sure about this year yet.

Yea, Chris gets to do alllllllllllllllllllllllllll the webmaster tasks allllll the time. We tried hiring him Tom Selleck as an assistant, but he was busy. So we just give Chris scrapbooking mustache stickers as consolation.Faceman wrote:Yeah, I'm sorry for the delay.

Re: So? This year's contest info would be....?
Update: The Contest info is being reviewed and copy-edited right now. As it hadn't had a thorough going-over in a few years, it had started becoming kludgey. At least compared to the recently cleaned content on the rest of the site. This should not be changing any of the previous rules; only making it simpler to read and understand.
I'm looking at the AMV Contest content to be posted by next Monday, 2/11 most likely (if not sooner, but I'll be AFK on vacation). In the interest of just getting it out there, the Due Date for the contest has been decided as Monday, April 1st. No, this is not a joke.
AMV Upload form will be opened either with the content posting, or within a few days after.

Yow, that's early compared to the con date. Time to really get cracking, it appears.
