What I've been doing is sending the files on CD with a download link on the entry form as well. Might be a little overboard, but I figure if there is a problem with one, then there's still a backup.
Lol, I did this too.

Had I not been following the thread and reading 25 pages full of posts, I would have missed the deadline as well.

Well that sounds like a great idea. But I believe you forgot that I was a hardcore procastinator. :wink:

Michael I am sure you are aware of this but on the forms to fil out for the con. Although the year was correct the catagory listings are off. They don't list your new "fun" catagory. It's a minor thing in a certain respect as you can just hand write it in but for people that don't know it was added (afterall, a lot of poeple won't reread rules year after year assumign most everything is the same) some people would not be aware that there is an additional catagory they could submit to.

The selection for the "Fun" category is on the very next line after "Intended Category". It should probably be on the same line as the rest of the categories. I couldn't find it at first, then I lol'd.

You had me scared I couldn't believe I had missed it. Then machina pointed it out. Phew. I was feeling pretty stupid there for a minute...But thank you for noticing, even if it was incomplete. Maybe I will play with the formatting for next year to make it easier to read.
