Alright everyone. The 1st QC round has been completed. Every video's entry status has been updated to reflect the current status of all entries. Any videos that did not pass QC their editors should have received an email from me separately informing you of this. However, it may be best to check the entry status page just to be sure of the status of your entry. (I did not send messages out to those who failed to submit their entries by the deadline as re-submission is not available for these entries.)
If your entry did not pass QC then you have 1 chance to fix the issue listed. You can request a re-submission FTP account (works just like the normal FTP account requests) and you will have until 11:59 PM EDT on Oct 16th to submit the final version. If this version does not pass QC then that will be it, better luck next year.
A bit more info for everyone who's videos have passed QC. Your entry status should list Video Checked. This basically means that it has passed the QC round and will compete in the judging with all other entries during our judging sessions. After judging is completed there will be a finalist list posted showing all entries that will be played during the convention (keep in mind that ALL entries will compete, but only some will be shown at the con.) Video status will change for entries at that point. All entries that will be shown at the con will be listed as Video Accepted, all entries that are not guaranteed to be played at the con will be listed as Accepted for Overflow. This finalist list will be posted at least within 1 week of the convention.
I want to thank everyone who submitted this year. There are a lot of really great and original videos and I can't wait for the con to show these off! This is the biggest contest yet and it will be lots of fun forcing my judging to sit through all of the entries! Good luck to everyone! Those of you who will be in attendance I'll see you there!
