Big question: does a video that have a lot of swearing in it count for the regular contest or the 18+ Contest?

[Kagacie]

Hi Kagacie here, co-host for the competitions.

First of all thank you for the question! Currently we do not have a hard rule set in regards to swearing, as we do not wish to limit editors too much in what they can submit to the contest. In many cases it depends on the context, amount and the actual swearwords that are used. currently this is something looked at on a case by case basis but we are internally discussing about how to handle videos of this type and may update the rules accordingly.

In regards to the 18+ competition this year we have updated are rules for the competition and as this is only our 3rd edition for this competition we are still in the process of setting the appropriate boundaries as to what is and is not qualified as 18+. This is something we will be taking more into account and may still be updated in this years ruling!
