This is your friendly and near final reminder that you have aprox little over 1 week to get your videos in to the contest!

Down to the wire folks. Get your FTP requests in soon or be ready to fork over for overnight postage!

Just a note for those of you who have or are planning on submit entries.

All entries that have been received have been noted as such in the system, you can view your video's status through the system.

Those of you who may have noticed your video having been disqualified for any reason can still submit that video to the contest for competition if the problems outlined through the system have been fixed. Such as uploading a distro version with bumpers instead of the credit-less version intended for the contest.

Videos will not be deleted from the system, so simply rename the new version adding something like "updated" or something along those lines. It may also be a good idea to drop me a line through email informing me that a new version has been sent so I will know to check for it.

As always, if you have any questions or problems as we get ever closer to the wire let me know. ohayocon [AT] ngsilver [dot] com

hi, this is your friendly reminder that you have aprox 47 hours left to get your entries in.

User's sending entries by mail will be pleased to note that I will accept entries through the weekend. i.e. I will accept entries received Saturday.

FTP users will be pleased to note that they will have through the weekend in order to get their videos in. at 12:01 Eastern Monday morning (00:01 for you 24 hour folks) the FTP server will be turned off. If your entry has not been recieved by then, best of luck next year.

In order for you to take advantage of this offer, you must have both your Entry form and your FTP request in by 12:01 Eastern Saturday morning. At that time the database will cease taking new entries and allowing users to request FTP access. If you do not get your entry form and/or FTP request in by that time, best of luck next year.

I look forward to seeing a good contest this year, good luck!

The contest submission process is now officially over. Thank you to everyone who submitted a video. I will be making the final updates for videos which have been submitted these past few days and then begin on the selection process for the finalists.

Keep in mind, once your video has been selected your video's status will change from "video checked" to "video accepted". If your video does not make it in the status will change from "video checked" to "video cut".

The list of finalists that will compete at the con will be announced within 1 week of the convention. If you video does not make it in we are sorry but this step is necessary, better luck next year.

Finally once again thank you to everyone who submitted your entries. Good luck.
