So, if you didn't follow that, I've put up a form for category declarations. I am sorry it is not (nor will it be, at the rate I'm going) a fancy website this year. I appreciate your patience.

You are quite right, Bashar. However, I felt it better to get that out before I headed to dinner and post here when I got home than to wait until I got home to do both.

Edit: Oh, and when I did email and announce here, it was a very long while before anyone bothered to tell me that they were forwarding my emails to those not getting them... you think I would have been the first stop about something like that... just saying.

Actually, I didn't forward anything until after I emailed you. It took most of Friday for us to realize some emails weren't getting out.

They are sent as we process... we're only 50% done as I write this.

Ok, was just the email lag then. Sorry. We'll be working on improvements to the improvements, always trying to get better.

I think I did that right.

Edit: No... now I think I got it right, and just to feel like I'm ahead of the game, I have entered information for next year's contests as well. So make sure y'all mark your videos for the right year...

...oh, Pro and Master's restrictions are still in effect until 6pm EST on the 28th... so I shouldn't see anything flagged for anything but the Expo before then. :-P

And no, you cannot actually submit to next year's events yet. :-P

I can't add a video to expo... Tip: the"this contest is closed to new entries" flag doesn't mean "the deadline for this contest is past" it means "i don't want to let people mark their video as being in this contest" - its extremely confusing and, frankly, serves no purpose. It should default to false and have its text changed on the form (or just be removed entirely).

Fixed. Thank you for the clarification.

I'm flexible, but it looks like Categories close this Sunday, Nominations by next Thursday (4 days after Categories) and Final Voting by next Monday (4 days after that). Deadline is midnight EST on all of that.

Thanks for the info on that. It's always good to have some dates when you have so much *hectic* going on.

(my schedule for non-work stuff looks like my schedule for work this month - so many appointments)

The one thing I miss from last year is how we were able to vote on the categories people were submitting as well. It always made it easier for the rest of us to see what potential categories there were.
Gimme a minute, I'll make a cool one....

I miss that too. We will have this fixed for next year. I blame my job and Kerbal Space Program.
