Well, mine was played as was earlier noted, I think -

Macross Zero - Dio - Holy Diver

If it's 10 they played, then that completes the list, besides the "Go" and the "FMP" vids, which we might need a bit more info on. Sounds like good times though.

Yeah, the Macross Zero one was played. I remember it had a good reaction.

I think there may be 1 or 2 more though. I just can't remember.

So I guess it was more like 12 videos.

This needs to be better coordinated. I mean my vid was sent out ahead of time and had plunty of time to get there. One of two things could have happend. One they never recieved my amv or two they forgot to send me an email that I requested them to do when they recieved my amv. Just because I have never sent an amv by mail out of the country that is. At least they could post a list or something that is offical. I'm little flustered that my video didn't get shown if that's the case. Oh well what can you do.

Well, who knows. It depends on how many entries they actually received, which we really don't know. Remember that CNAE's contest never was a big affair, and it was only last year that they expanded it to about 1:20 from an hour - and sounds like this year, it was back to being shorter again. Since they ran it same place as their cosplay carnival, they probably had a very limited time slot for it, and since usually the carnival is in about an hour or so after the contest, I wouldn't be surprised. If they got over a dozen entries, I'm sure some ended up getting cut, which is sad in itself, but - shoganai

I was talking to the guy who coordinated the AMV contest. He said they had a bit of a drop in number of sumissions from last year, I think he said they had somewhere between 30 and 40, but he got squeezed for time really badly by the con scheduling so had to get the contest down to just 1 hr this year. I'm pretty sure he didn't want to do that.

Congrats to everyone who got played and the winners.

If anyone wants a copy of my video they'll have to wait just a little longer as it's in a contest that is supposed to be judged blindly (I know a number of people will know it's mine, but it will totally spoil things if I post it before this constest is over.) I'll put it here on the .org as soon as I can.

If anyone could get an official list of AMV's played in the contest from him, that'd be nice too.

Actually, hold on, I think I'll email him myself. It'd be nice to know for completeness' sake.

If you e-mail him try to be polite please. He's a nice guy and I think he did the best he could considering the con's organization and apperently limited amount of dedication (willingness to give time to) to the AMV contest.
