Yes. It will be the facepalm award. It's a photograph of me facepalming.
I'm not retired from THIS competition! :twisted:
See the fine print.

This contest is only open to active AMV creators who are not retired, and whose names aren't Castor Troy. Some assembly included, batteries not required, your mileage may vary, valid in all states except California.
I am enjoying where this is headed!!!

You get a ticket to the Event that says DBZ Same episode Marathon helped in a small dark room with only one seat.

I won't be going to AX, but I'll still be in the area.

Because I'm going to the DBZ Battle of Gods premiere.

Sweet... red carpet event I hear be sure to get a pizza mouth open selfie

I have to say faced with the choice of going to an exclusive premiere or paying money to go see a contest that you painstaking judged over 200+ videos for. Watching the videos yet again... meh I would opt for the premiere to be honest...

At least I'm being properly compensated for my time since I'm covering it as press for kanzenshuu.com. 8-)

Vlad G Pohnert wrote:in regards to the AMV Room:

We have put aside a block of time called "Creator Takeover" (was Creator Spotlight last year) where creators can show and introduce a few of their AMV works in a 10 minute slot. The Slots are scheduled on Thursday (Day 1) starting at 1:15 pm to 2:45 pm so there are 9 Slots in the AMV Room.

If your interested, please PM me and I'll add you to the list. Also include your approximate time preference (no guarantees though). Having a slot does not mean a free pass into AX (you will still need to get that yourself), but will guarantee you admittance to the AMV room for the entire creator Takeover block.

Please note, if there is more interest then we have time for, we will take into consideration those that did not have a Creator spotlight slot last year.

ALSO, we will be doing AMV 101: The Basics on Thursday at 12:00 pm on Day 1 as well. If you are interested on being on the panel and discussing your experience at AMV creation, please also let me know as well. We do have only a limited amount of space.

Thanks,

Vlad
sent a email. I am not sure if there are any spots left, but I am mustering the courage I have to at least try this. I am not good in front of crowds but we'll see. :uhoh:

Indeed, because going to the red carpet screening of your favorite show is just such a chore... :roll:

Bullshit aside (we all know damn well you'd gleefully pay to go if you had to), I'm happy for you and hope you have fun. :beer:

Thanks. I hope the contest goes well too.

I do have quite a few things to say about the pool of entries this year, but I'll wait for the results after AX to post them. I might have a few suggestions on how to help everyone step up their game in an already challenging contest. :book:

Hey Troy, could you post the finalist list on the 1st page or are those reserved posts for something else?
