Lighten up man... I think everyone knows that by now.
Sorry about that.

Hope everyone has a good time at AX and let me know how the Sailor Moon stuff goes.

I didn't know this. Really? I have been attending AX since 2006, well I missed 2009, but yeah. I never knew the AMV contest was a secret.

I think it took until 2005 for the AMV contest to appear again in the program guide.

It wasn't a secret, it just wasn't promoted. The event would barely get much mention in the program guide or on the website, and also often threw a lot of hurdles to those who'd want to run any sort of an AMV panel (such as prohibiting playing any actual AMVs at the panel).

Things got better from 2008 and onward when new management came in.

So something that isn't promoted or in the program at a convention is not keeping it a secret? It was just underground and only the cool kids knew where it was and the secret password... hehe too bad they couldn't keep out the paper airplane mafia!
