As per the number of entrants, nobody got DQ'd.
It's not like I wasn't trying! Honestly I was shocked and highly amused that of all the horrible things in my video, the thing that got flagged was the one thing I never thought about: Giant Naked Rei's giant naked nipples. At least I somehow had a semi good idea for once to fix it: Thank you for allowing me to do that btw, and congrats to all of the finalists.
You're not alone here. When making my Otakon entry, while there's a few elements in my video that could raise a flag, the one moment that I was really concerned about was the Negima scene, as it involved a hot spring scene, and while the nipples were not visible, the fact that the water doesn't obscure the body had me concerned about the shot (especially since I had to change part of my Road to Pompeii video when one of my original planned scenes would have been flagged by Anime Expo). In the end, I went with the idea of censoring that part, and luckily, given the subject matter of the video (and how I've been into anime for more than 20 years now), I had the perfect idea of how to handle it.

At first glance its like you guys are treating your rewards as trading YuGiOh cards? Is one defense strong enough so you don't get cast into the shadow realm or something? :rofl:

Congrats to the finalists! Pretty sure this is the first contest I'll be in since 2014, haha.

I'm just stoked that I'm a finalist TBH. I haven't submitted to many contests so this is the first time for me.

Because of my work and where I live I probably won't be able to be at Otakon, but the fact my AMV is gonna be shown to a crowd is just mind-blowing.

One question in regards to, well the overflow screening if you will. Will it be in the same room as the finalists are? In other words, will it be screened in the same room at the finalists will be? Or will be off to like a “side room” or something?

"We ARE the side room" - Andre the Giant...probably.

All AMV events are taking place in the same room. Non-finalists are shown on the same screen as the finalists.

OK good, that’s what I want to know. Because I saw at one convention, where the overflow screenings were in a different, much smaller room than the contest itself. So I was wondering. And Andre the Giant? Wow, that goes way back.
