So, we have a week left. People that have accounts and are sitting on vids should upload them soon. Our numbers have rather plateaued.

Thanks Bashar.

TC - check your PM.

4 days left to upload. If you still need an FTP account, ask for it very soon. I'm going to be away from my local system from the general 8-5 time frame every day during the week (work and all) and if you wait until the last day (Friday) to ask for a slot you run the risk of not getting it in time.

Eh... Not sure if this is a dafty question or not, but is it possible to replace a Lagarith AVI that I've already uploaded to my FTP account with a newly encoded MPEG2??

Sure thing, just shoot me a reply on the email chain so I know which account to grab from.

I was really hoping to put out a new AMV for the contest this year to submit, but the end of the month really snuck up on me. With enough luck I might be able to go to AAC this year though it seems unlikely again. :( I'm still crossing my fingers though. At the very least I'd love to show up for the majority of one of the days.

Anyways, best of luck to those who are submitting and good luck to the judges and coordinators as well during the judging and contest showing. May everything run smoothly and not be too stressful. :up: :)

I'd say come Saturday - it seems to be the quantum AMVer day. A lot of editors "might" come that day, judging from the emails/PMs i've gotten.

I might come to both--depends on my schedule.

Finally got off my butt and uploaded my vids, Bashar. Thanks for the gentle reminders. :oops:

Both? It's 3 days.

As to the reminders, I like to send out a few emails to remind people. I've had people just completely forget they had to upload before.
Spoiler :
I also seem to get a few people every year that, even after 2 or 3 reminder emails, don't submit anything. That's one of the reasons we purge accounts every year - no idea how many people asked for an account that only wanted it to try to gain access into our servers. I also really like having an hour a day of work to do on this whole contest thing rather than 15+ hours at the end amidst all the other stuff i'm responsible for. Ballots and title cards are somewhat tedious when a good portion of the entries are non-OCR PDFs and JPGs that you have to copy information from manually... Even when they're not it gets tedious doing them all at one sitting.


On that note... 2.5 days to upload for those that still need to.

I meant both showings of the contest. Sorry, not terribly clear there.

is there a way we can get a status of what AMV's have been entered and which editors? Like a list of who all is participating in what subject? When might this list be released?

Also, I take it might entries have been received and are well within Con Rules?

I'll post a ballot after I make the ballot. Some time early next week.

if by "might" you mean "my" then yes.

Coolness.

I'm interested to see who all has entered this year and the videos that will be pitted against each other.
