I'll be honest, every hour or so I kept looking back behind to see if people were still there. To my surprise hardly anyone left the panel, it was real surprising. In a way, this looked like a extended AMV 101 (102?) panel but with an actual competition as the main presentation. I only noticed people leaving after the completed AMVs were shown. Numbers speak for themselves really and this even put's other panels to shame in terms of actual interest. And that's pretty great considering it's all last minute.
Aside from the obvious technical issues, I enjoyed it. You know what you guys could do now that I thought of it. Have a extended panel in the Iron Chef so you can answer people's questions more thoroughly with a nice visual explanation, like using your PCs/Macs.
