Had a few people write to tell me about the dead Past Winners link on the main AMV page, fear not! That and the "2017" will be changed soon!

So you're honestly expecting everyone who enters to have never posted their entered videos online?

I'm also going to go on record against the rule saying that videos can't have been posted online first. That should be changed!

Oh shoot, I didn't see that. Is that a request or a requirement? My submission has been on YouTube since August

For reference, I think we're all referring to rule 12 at http://www.katsucon.org/programming/amv/amv-showdown/

Yeah, it's a borderline de facto exclusivity/1st showing rule.

Currently seeing what can be done about the rule.~

UPDATE: It's more of a request to /not/ post them online but we can't control what you do with your entry. Do and proceed as you see fit.
Nothing will be DQ'd for being online already.

Thank you for the clarification, Mareep. Is it possible to add some clarification on the rules page, or strike that rule entirely? The other freshness rule (can't enter if it won three awards) seems like it does the trick already
