Now that I'm finally back to the land of internet access (one of the minor issues with Ohayocon's location: no free WiFi to be easily found, and as incredibly useful as it may be, trying to do this from my iPhone would have been far moretrouble than it would have been worth.??), I can finally post the list of the winners from the contest. The full list of entries will be posted shortly in the Finalists thread.
Voting for Best of Show and the category awards was done via audience ballot- we had a return rate of somewhere between 10-15% on ballots returned vs. handed out with approximately 220 ballots handed in. The Staff Pick award was voted on by a group of the staff (duh) including myself. It will be up to the individual editors to post links to their videos when they are availabe (I will probably update the top post to include them along the way too)? Creators who were not present to receive their awards will be contacted by me to work out getting them to you. Congratulations to all of the winners!
