I sent two entries rather than the original one. I sent a warning about it from my gmail account and wonder still if this is okay. I also included it in the submission form.

Just wanted to make sure the videos were received..?

I'm confused. On #amv it sounded like you needed as many entries outside of drama, but the rules say that I can only submit two. My main entry was supposed to be drama and I offered a comedy. I also have some other vids that might be finishable but if I'm limited to two entries, I can't help you.

The two from you are fine. I was stressing that I needed more from other people is all.

I just checked them - you're all set. My prescreeners might want to re-categorize your drama as romance though. :lol:

That said, I thank everyone for getting their entries in these last few days. We're a lot closer to a full contest now. However, Romance is still pretty bare (and that's kinda weird). :shock:

I don't get it. NekoCon was light on Comedy and Upbeat entries. Now you say your con is short on Romance. Is this kind of thing regional or are people thinking Drama and Action are the "easier" categories these days?..because those two just happened to be our most populated this year... :?

I've always found Action and Drama tend to have the most competition generally. A mindless action video is easy to make, and drama only takes lyric sync and a slow song generally so people tend to make those. At least this is what I have noticed ever since I started entering videos into contests back in 2003.

If I had another new vid I would submit it. But sadly both of my AWA entries would be disqualified due to content. I'll see what I can do.

Romance is basically a sub-genre of Drama in the vast majority of cases (and a sub-genre of "upbeat" in just about all of the others). It's usually the same techniques as Drama. :lol:

EDIT - guess I have to state the obvious implication that it should occur just as frequently, all things being equal.
