Those Who had problems with Kunicon

Postby DJKiller » Tue Jun 28, 2005 12:36 am

If you were a volunteer at Kunicon and they failed to pay your badge, or you submitted an AMV and they didn't send you a prize or whatnot let me know by PM.

Thanks.

For Denver the Certificates are being mailed out to the winners. the Winners in attendance in Atlanta received their Trophies. I dont know what your planning Chris? But I hope you dont plan to start up problems again. I think you have enough trying to run your radio station without starting another flame war between us. I settled with you peacefully, I hope it stays that way.

Haha dude I am sorry but Chaos Projects submitted it under your name as the author. So when people submit there information it has to be accurate. Sorry man I would make sure it's accurate next time.

We originally started thinking to give this uber prize and gave a Plasma screen. I got emails saying spend more money on the con and give away smaller prizes or trophies. Now we gave away Trophies. Since we still have time for this in Miami, it is better to give trophies or unknown swag given to us by vendors and other companies?

Or to spend money on other items like hard drives or flat panels or PC equipment?

I would like to know, but I think in the end that is subjective. So I guess I will ask is a gift certificate the best way to go? like one from Best Buy or NewEgg.com for PC parts?

and I ask that seriously, AMV 4000's posts [which were removed] are a bit on the harsh side, joking is fine - but we really want to do good by the AMV community so cut Michieru some slack.

How about this? I need something slightly larger than 128, and will match my current specs.
If it's drives we're talking about I think another 400GB seagate sata is adiquite. Hell, for 2 I would endorse the con!

joking?? harsh???

WTF? do you think im playing games with you?? im not playing with you fscking people, you are the dumbbest con staff i've ever dealt with, and i've had to deal with pilk being a staff member at momo con... in all seriousness, you guys really need to get your shit together, stop running back to your daddys and go get laid, go get some decent staff, [text removed]

learn from your mistakes, dont keep making them, because the more you make those mistakes over and over again, the more pissed off i become and the more "The chaos project" dies inside... hes got low enough self esteem as it is.. how do you think it makes him feel to have some jackoff like pilk take credit for all of his countless hours of hard editing? then after everyone has told you it was chaos... you still said it was pilk... i get calls late at night.. of people in tears because their hard work was given credit to someone else... seriously...l you people need to grow up!

Yeah, its sad that no one has mention yet that Guinchard Xavier got credit for notvoicesofryan's video, or that Tardo's Field Trip was renamed "Somewhere Beyond Imagination." But thats hardly something to cry about

Where would these winners be listed? I remember you were sort of calling some of them out at the con but I haven't seen an official winners post for Denver yet.

for the reasons above, I have made strict policy if the entry form is not filled out correctly, it is disqualified. I wont care if I am left with 2 videos after I am done going over paperwork. We made that mistake on Chaos Project and I apologize for it, the winners were called by the names on their files. Those mistakes won't ever happen again. How about giving us some credit for fixing the problems the viewings had in the past, it did run smooth as I recall, one video issue in the beginning that was taken care right away and then a flawlessly run contest.

I keep hearing stop making the same mistake, the same mistake has not been made, and attempts to reconcile are being made, I have asked politely so that our lives are not made hard while we continue to grow and improve.

I think we are where we need to be, our rules are strict and general so anyone can submit easily, good communication is in place so everyone is informed and our forums are full of new information. Miami will be testament to all our growth, we did make some mistakes along the way, but we have also made huge improvements. I can only say sorry so many times on the same topic - good god man its not the end of the earth because a few mistakes were made, a con is made to have fun not all this drama.

I hope you guys can get past the crap from the past and move forward.
