I've received nearly 60 entries thus far, and maybe five or six of them are from people I recognize.
Also, just for the sake of conversation, I've noticed an interesting trend. Over this year and last year, the "veterans" tend to send their entries in at the last minute, whereas there's quite a few of the newer folk who tend to send in rather early. Even though some of you send vids that have already been sent to other cons, I somehow envision some of you tweaking and retweaking your entries...
Oh, and the G-Rated hentai bet is still on. Anyone who enters a bona-fide G ratable AMV (not PG, not PG-13, it has to be G, and no censor bars) using nothing but hentai shows, I will buy all the beer they can drink at the creator gathering. And if it's PG, I'll at least buy you a glass for effort.
(And I've already put money aside just in case someone actually does it.)
