...I'm posting just to see this thread get one more post at this point. :roll:

Yeah I'd stick to the part that's winning. Since the con is pretty soon, we'll know even sooner. :wink:

Has it ever been this long waiting for results? It's less than a week until con and there is a horde of anxious AMV editors (including me) who would like to know who the finalists are.

Anyone..? :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:

I bet by this Monday we will find out what videos are in or not, and I'm hoping that my video is in.

Yeah, it woulda been nice if someone had said around when we'd find out. Is it too late to ask for an estimate now? ^^;;;

I'm always wondering what the results will be. I'm patient, but I still wonder. The sooner the better of course, but I think last year it was a least 7 days out from the con that we knew. We're down to less than that now.

Oh, well, here's somethin' positive that I don't recall anyone mentioning. For those of us that also attended the Anime USA AMV contest, held at the same hotel, we might recall that the main showing of the contest was done in a room that was, well, a little too small for such a big event. They have the katsucon schedule posted now, and while I'm sure more is going to be added to it, I'm really glad to see that the AMV contest Friday night is being held in the main event hall. It's nice to see the AMVs on such a big screen.

Now if only we knew what videos we'd be seeing on that big screen.... :roll:

Yeah I was there. The Saturday showing was in the main events, but it was really early and I was nestled in my comfy bed, so I only saw it in that smaller room Friday night. Though at this hotel, the main events itself is a bit smaller than I'm used to for Katsu even. Going to have to make sure we're in line plenty of time before the showing just to be on the safe side.

Actually, the person that I was staying with had some early morning event he wanted to go to also, so I went in early as well and caught the early morning showing. I gotta tell ya, playing it in the main events hall that early in the morning was a bad idea - the audience was obviously very tired, and while the previous night every AMV had been applauded, there was no such activity in the main events hall that morning. Though my AMV started out with a rather loud note, so it at least woke people up. :twisted:

Yeah, I'd heard that it was a bit subdued in general. Even though it's the same place, Katsu's a different con, so here's to a different experience :up: !!

And now the nail-biting really begins. Hope I can hold out. Just finished my costume (worked on it all day) and I'm reeeeally tired.

Return of the Japanese Idiot - drewaconclusion

*worried*
I never got to hear the audience reaction to "Me Wuvs You" at NekoCon, although one guy told me "it was lunch." :?:
How Alucard Stole Christmas - Ranmafan477

This is the second year for this one, isn't it? I know this video has been circulating for a rather long time. Maybe it just seems like two years..?
Phobia - CrackTheSky

*worried again*
I just hope Haruhi gets a good response. It would be nice to win one at a convention I'm attending (just found out AICon 2009 - at University of Tasmania - voted "Go Ask Haruhi" as Best Drama :)), but there's so much quality stuff out there. I'm anxious for the screening... :sweat:
