Please ignore Toji man what a goof. Hey its the other Bryan that you meet from Otakon prescreening 2003 and this years. I'll be there as well. Anyway so far I have to say the prescreenings are going pretty well. Nice job, with keeping everything on time this year.

Yeah, it took quite a bit of catchup work to get everything to where it is.
And I'll see you again this weekend!

But this time, I'm bringing lunch, lol.

Papa John's is a rip off. I think I'll do the same too. Or I'll buy myself one on the way down.

I thought the pre-screenings went very smoothly and I had a lot of fun. Incase anyone was wondering, I was the one with the pink hair with chopsticks through it and was wearing a black shirt and blue jeans ^_^ Hope to see more faces next time!

Ur lady friend was very cute BTW... but that's neither here nor there.....

Um, really I feel totally embarrased because I did such an amature job at the beginning explaining the forms.... then um I learned about the slate and form typo... ("category" was miss-spelled as "catagory") then that one video at the very end was a duplicate because APPARENTLY we have two videos that were submitted wiht the same exact name..... but different music and anime.... and when I was looking up the video info I accidently got the stuff for the video we already had seen and not the new one.

I am seriously thinking of not being involved in the contest next year. It's just too much work and strain on me (I setup the Baltimore screenings, the mailing list, updating the database, made the review forms, made all the slates for the tapes, and helping everyone with their problems like getting videos in and submission forms fixed and what not)..... all things I really didn't need to do (only creating the slates was my job), but did anyway just to make sure they got done and because I had nothing better to do at the time........ I got too involved and now I'm burned out from trying to do it all..... then I don't really get the credit for what all I did since it really was Geoffs stuff (but I insisted I do it)
So either I need to seriously cut back my involvment, or I need to stop all together..... it's gotten to me.

Yeah Vlad, I really sympothize with you guys. Mind you I am involved in a number of non contest related things that I am sure contributed. As far as Otakon is concerned I think I was doing a bit too much for one person, in such a small amount of time.
But you know, come the contest I'll be all excited and ready to do it all over again, lol!

Ok, now I need to go redo the slates for the contest to correct a spelling mistake.
