Seeing that awesome emoji just warped me back to 2009. Sure feels good to have contests again.

Feeling the same. 2009 was also the year I first entered a video into a major contest, and it was Otakon. It was and is one of the best videos I've ever made and it came in third. I would have been okay with that if 1st place hadn't been some baby editor's first AMV :shrug: . I was bitter about that for years, and entered very few contests after that. Now I know better. Getting robbed is all part of the experience after all. Now I'm back at Otakon (figuratively), and with a video that I can finally be as proud of as that one I made over a decade ago. People will see it, and that's enough.

Edit: Quick comment putting me in my place lol (and rightly so). I should probably explain that I'm not bitter anymore. Were I more mature back then, I would not have been bitter in the first place. I quite like the Nemo video, and I'm happy for the editor. I was happy for them back then too, but it still hurt. What can I say, it was my first contest and I honestly felt I should have placed better. My feelings back then were real, and I'm not going to be dishonest about that, even if those feelings were shameful. I intend to do better this time around. Not in the contest, but in my reaction to the results.

I once lost an Otakon by 6 votes. I had 7 roommates, none of them remembered to vote. Oooof.wav

Lose enough times and you can take my job :lol:

Otakon had been been known to show the overflow videos during the convention, so I'm sure that the video will play over the weekend.
