I walked in during the event... Then noticed they were showing a 5 minute long video of these game characters preforming special attacks, then I left.

I think the people running the amv contest were like blind or couldnt count cause that video showing a games fight moves with music lasted about 10 mins and im quite sure they had a video length restriction

Damn, sad I missed Stan, that would have been great.

As to the harsh speak against Brad, hate to be a rules nazi but it simply states you have to have a "membership for Jacon" it does not state you must be in attendance to win. Pretty common for out of state editors to submit to conventions they can't go to. And I'm sure the reason he wasn't able to go is because he lives here in California. But I may be biased because I've met him, he's a good guy.

That's sounds really out of the way, spending $45 just to get an AMV into a contest(and not be there), lol. I wonder if they even do check, 'cause I've heard some places have that rule, but they really don't check for pre-registers.

I guess the real question is... why troll JACON?
