Should have 3 entries for this if I can make the deadline.

Question though. If I submit 1 or 2 now, can I still submit one more later?

While it would be preferred that you submit all your videos together, it isn't a requirement. It just makes our job slightly easier. Still, if you want to submit the two videos because you're not sure you will get the third in on time, go ahead.

I sent in 3 entries, 2 of which were sent in at least a week ago, and I never got a confirmation E-mail or an E-mail saying what I needed to fix. I sent them again on the 21st, and there's still no E-mail. It's passed the deadline now, so there's probably nothing I can do.

Not to mention the time it took to even put a forum up for this contest on this site, and the page on AnimeBanzai.org that still said "more info coming soon" even though everything was already set up (that was pretty misleading). On Google Chrome and other major but less used browsers, the submission form doesn't even work correctly. These were just some of the issues I came across.

I was really enthusiastic about this contest this whole year because this is one of the conventions I actually go to. It's really disappointing to see this disorganization, and I sincerely hope this information helps and that next year has some changes.
