By the way I was in charge of the AMV contests now with Kunicon so if there is any trouble with the contests you guys come and bash me. But I was able to fix the contest at the last moment for Atlanta which had a good showing. It was small just to regain the confidence of you guys back in us. To show you that we can run a contest correctly. Then when we get more submissions we can provide more competition and better judging.

ah arigato, but kunicon has to apalogies, it was'nt like most people expected, the dealer room for examply, alot of vendors, but too much space, the viewing room, alot of technicial problems, and as for the amv contest, they should've done what most cons do and NOT let bumpers in them, alos it got boring when they showed the amvs with the same anime in order

Yes and I think they did on there forum, But I was not incharge and I as just there at the convention like a fan goer. So I cannot answer you there.
While I do know the whole story on how Kunicon Miami was a mess. Indeed it was but let's not go there. I already setted up a few systems to improve those sectors you mentioned and you would have no reason why not to come back for more. Also I did not allow bumpers in Atlanta. So if anyone did go to the Atlanta AMV they can tell you that. Also about the same Anime in order I would scramble it then for ya. I would keep that in mind.

Kunicon is almost at the point to be announced for December. The moment that happens I will ask michieru to announce it here.

We have improved from Miami last year. Our events do not run over time or run late (by not running late I mean 5-10 minutes delays which are common, can occur - but nothing like what happened in the first con of over 30 minutes or more in delays). We have learned alot from the last 4 events that we have run. We made improvements and we have made new mistakes ^_^. The learning is a constant process. Event by event we will improve.

So We hear ya.

The Denver Winners in the AMV contest - turns out the seperate set of judges for that event voted very closely to the judges from Atlanta and the same set of videos won in this order:

Judges Spotlight - Tied between Hitori Studios, Bourne Identity and The Hellsing Order (each judge equally wanted both studios, so we will send a certificate to both)
Best Comedy - The Chaos Project - Magical B@#chs (We got the credit right this time)
Best Drama - Somewhere Beyond Imagination
Best Action - Matthew Foldenauer - aka Rut Kiskasca - City on Fire (this video was 1 point in difference from earning both Best Technical and Best of Show)
Best Technical - Clermidy Laurent - Das Omen
Best of Show - Guinchard Xavier (Nostromo) - Always Hardcore (lives in France! O_O)

From here on end in the future, we will have the rules read if your in attendance (at the con) you can collect your prize. If you are not in attendance we will send you a certificate (the prize will be used for another event). We will still keep it free to any AMV creator to submit to any city.
