Can't say I enjoy the new exlusive rule for AWA Pro. I think that this will lower the quality of the entries a considerable amount. With alot of big contests right before it, people are going to have less of a reason to submit. I think it would be better if you made it a certain time frame. Having videos only allowed to be 3 months old or less. I would enjoy that.

I've always treated Pro as exclusive anyway... that is I've never submitted a video for pro that I didn't create specifically for it... but since I never enter anything anywhere else I guess I'm alone in that.

Classically most of us have treated pro as a "professional" level contest (hence the name.) Meaning that the contest should be comprised of new content which puts each editors skills to the test and forces everyone to try a little harder. I just ask the question: "if Jingoro were my boss, would I give him a piece of work I handed in 6 months ago for another project and expect to get paid?" Anything else is expo.
though generally my work rarely reflects this

my 2¢

Wait, I have an 18+ rule and a no Hentai rule? I think I broke something there. Let me dwell on this. Please discuss.
