BUT - the convention would be over, the dealers room would be empty, wouldn't it?

AND - not everyone can attend.

I'm fine if money isn't involved, but I'd have thought a con celebrating its 20th year wouldn't even suggest such a thing. You obviously have something to lose if shit with the RIAA went down.

Well, we got a budget this year and we were just trying to come up with something "more" than the usual. Plus the winners who are not present don't get any free givaways, so they get short changed. Anyway, I just got off the phone with Chris and he's fine with keeping things "traditional" and playing it safe. Any ideas for alternative Prizes (or sponsors willing to pitch in) are welcomed.


AMA did gift cards to Best Buy (I got some source with mine <3), but I agree with Bashar. Thinpacks are always welcome, even if it's not an anime I would choose for myself, or even watch for that matter, I still use them in video projects.

Any A-Kon branded stuff would be cool too - t-shirts, lanyards, etc. As for gift certificates, what about a cert for Right Stuff? That can be emailed to the winner or printed to hand out at the con. Emailing a prize is a lot cheaper than shipping one.

/me goes back to lurking.

If you entered your video for submission into the system, then you still have a week to get it to us. May 11 is the final cut-off date.

Has anyone else been having trouble viewing their submissions on the "My submissions" part of the A-KON Video Contest page? I've e-mailed support and they replied saying they had it, but I still for the life of me can't see my project or its status, even right after I uploaded the form over a week ago. It says that I have no submissions. The suspense is killing me.

Also, about the categories. If the A-KON staff think it belongs in a different grouping, can they change it? Or am I even allowed to change it at this point in time? Reason I ask is because my video's more of a Drama/Action, and some of the people I've shown it to believe it to belong more in the 'Drama/Romance' category instead of "Action/Horror".

Mine is working.. It just still says "Pending arrival" When I had already uploaded my AMV's to them...

Hmm I think you can...

My AMV that I am sending.. is more of an inspirational AMV... but I dont know where that would follow under...so I put it under Drama/romance
