AWA Expo

Just a quick question really, does anyone know what day and time the actual Expo contest is going to be held at AWA this year?

Did they start that early last year? I know they have to show the winners for the Expo, Pro and they try to show the majority of the Masters but I somehow recall it being later. But then again I was talking with people till 2 am each day so I kind of lost my concept of a solar scheduel.

The winners announced last year had to be around 5pm.

Either way, I know they finished kind of late. I remember because I had to beg my parents to let me stay until the awards were over beforehand, and ended up leaving just after the SNES Project started. :cry:

Well there are seperate awards for each contest but they do all of the awards all at once so first they give out all the awards and show the respective videos for Expo and so on for Pro and Masters. However each has their own specific "overflow" time during the weekend where the videos that didn't win get shown.

Sorry for the stupid question, but is this contest like Otakon where the finalists (or winners) are know beforehand and then the rest are in the overflow rooms, or are they actually announced there at the con?

Announced at con. Last year one of the videos didn't feature the bumper for the award it won so Vlad had to spend the entire contest wondering what award he won.

Since someone asked.... yes we are running it much earlier this year than last (this year, 2:00 on Sat). Con decision, not mine, but it sounds like it might work out for the better this way.

Haha! Yes, I remember that. It wasn't just Vlad- I was wondering too... And I'm sure other people were, as well.

Pah - what a hardship. Vlad got it easy - the real worry was mine (and other people in comedy or various).

See, Vlad's missing banner could have said both Best Comedy AND Best Various which would have mean't that IWIWAL hadn't won anything (I didn't think for a second that it would win Best Video and sure enough I was right). So I had to wait through the videos to see if either of the categories came up later.

Thankfully Best Comedy appeared and resolved the issue for both of us.


Now that I think back it does seem that the awards are much earlier. I recall my panel last year being at 3 (or something like that) so I think the awards last year were at 5 or something. Oh and for those who dont know they show all the expo winners and then give the awards, then show the pro winners and give the awards and then show the masters entrants and then announce the winner. Usually.

Yeah, I believe we were at 3. Also, looking at the schedule, it seems that Iron Chef is earlier this year as well. I seem to remember IC generally ending around 10 or 11, instead of at 8.
I have no idea how to use this new forum.
