Vancore,

Totally random post, but I just read your profile and you were there at ACen2002 with the rest of us watching the prescreening till like 5 a.m.?!?! Holy crap man...kindred spirits. I was there too with Koop and Senta (which you mentioned). That was actually my first video and like my first month into AMVs.

It's amazing what a year can do for all three of us (Koop in particular). Wow! Amazing that I sort of met you, but not really. Come to ACen 2004 ^_^

BTW I know it looks like I'm kissing ass, but...I'm surprised your VHD video didn't win an award at some of the contests it was at. Given, they were all big contests with many good entries, but I was rooting for you at the handful I was at.

Exactly what it says...Matt will be sending all the finalist a tape of all the contest tape. It's a really strong contest too.

It's not like it's automatic -- I can't afford to pony up 31 tapes and a minumum of 62 hours of time duping tapes for people who may not even be interested in getting a copy of the contest.

Contest finalists who are interested gotta send me a blank tape and a self-addressed STAMPED return mailer. I'll send out an e-mail to the finalists when I'm unpacked and able to dup the tapes for them.

Man, I haven't even been able to get the official results typed in yet....

Hey Cybermat, i know this is like hella late, but just out of curiosity to the fact that i did send my vid registration in kinda late. Was my video shown in the prescreening or anything? makes no difference if it did or not. i'm just curious if the mail around here is still as slow as it use to be

/cybermat checks his records....

Yup. It was on pre-con screening tape 2, and at-con on general screening tape 6. It also was shown in the Consolation Screening Sat. night, so it was somewhere in the top 1/3 of AMVs received for Otakon 2003.
