It's 8:15PM and the contest submission says it is already closed. What?

From your rules:

All entries must be received by November 9th at 11:59 pm - no exceptions. This ensures proper judging time.

I was too lazy to send anything myself...if they can't handle the submission process well, I wouldn't worry about it...

We received three entires sometime during the day, so it has been working. If for some reason anyone couldn't upload before the deadline due to the site refusing to allow it, I'm not sure what the problem was. I will alert the developer about the issues and have him look into what the problem could have been. Apologies for the difficulties.

I remember looking everywhere for this too. My fiancee and I both entered the contest and were told if we were finalists we would receive an email notification. Seeing that we never did, and that we could only spend one day at the con, we opted to attend Saturday.

Turns out we took three awards, never even got any notification. Luckily a friend was there to get our certificates.
I'm really sad I missed the showing, but I've experienced sitting through an entire contest and not having any of my videos shown and it's a terrible feeling. :/
