I like to procrastinate, and I can't do it properly without a close deadline... and even then, sometimes I end up lazying out too much and miss the deadline regardless. (´_ゝ`)

I make "con versions" of all my (more recent) videos weather they get submitted to cons or not, just in case I guess? I donno why I do that. Maybe in case someone wants to show my video even if I don't think it's contest worthy.

I edit what I want, and if I think it will do well at a con, then I enter it. I don't pay attention to deadlines much. Sometimes a deadline can speed up the process for something I've been working on though.

Not singling you out or anything, but you know the approximate deadline already. I'd wager you already can guess with a fair certainty (+/- a week) when the deadline for just about any con in 2011 would be.

I only ever usually edit specifically for 1 con, and even then I don't actively say "MUST MAKE THIS FOR THIS", I just make a video and wind up submitting.

In start work nearly a year ahead of time .... then I lose interest, or play WOW ... or now it's play EVE .... then see the deadline a month before the con ... and say "Well FRAK, maybe I ought to finish that FRAKING video ... "
