Major Change Notes:
--- This year we have officially removed the separate adult competition in favor of allowing adult entries to be submitted and compete alongside the non-adult entries in the normal competition for standard judges awards. There will still be a separate carded showing for these entries at the convention and it will be decided during the judging sessions which entries will be moved to this showing. For more details on how this change is being handled please check the Adult Entry specific rules in the rules document and the judging info in the MomToCutiePia rule document.
--- This year we are officially accepting entry submissions via Web Link Uploads! You will submit your web link via the entry status page. FTP Submissions is no longer the preferred method of submission and it is no longer recommended to use FTP unless you are unable to utilize the web upload feature.
--- Judging and Awards will be handled slightly differently this year, further info via the MomToCutiePia rule found here: http://contests.ngsilver.com/youmacon/Y ... andled.pdf

Re: Youmacon 2016 Fan Art Theater Competition (AMV Contest)
For those of you who have had problems signing up and logging in for the first time in the entry system I believe I have resolved the bug for that issue (I found the bug once I was alerted to it.) So you should be good to log in and authenticate yourself. Remember that if you have submitted to Youmacon or any contest that's used the system in the past your account is still active, no need to make a new one. I can assist in recovering accounts if needed.
We are closing in on about a 1.5 month till the final deadline. Remember that if you plan to send Snail-mail or via FTP that those submission formats do close early (Sept 28th) while Web Upload closes later (Oct 8th.)
Finally, I wanted to give a brief update to inform ya'll that I am moving within the next week. As such the FTP server will not be available for the next week and a half while my servers and systems at home are packed away and sent to my new place and then hooked back up there. Internet is already available at my new place (if you check the mail-in form in the system I've already updated the address and you might recognize it as I've been there before) so the bottle neck is getting things setup. The entry system will remain up and running while this is going on so you may still submit entries and all requests such as web upload and FTP requests, I just will not be able to download and check any web uploads or authorize any FTP accounts while my systems are offline. Once I am back up online I'll make another announcement and go through the backlog.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Re: Youmacon 2016 Fan Art Theater Competition (AMV Contest)
FTP and SnailMail deadlines have officially past. We are also FAST approaching the final web upload submission deadline of October 8th! Thank you to everyone who has submitted an entry so far while I've been away at AWA. I will be getting to them all today and will be sending out reminders to everyone whom doesn't have a video submission to accompany their entry form after doing so. You should be getting status update emails sometime tonight.
This is a reminder that we are still looking for entries. These can be of any video, any type, any length and any number of videos (as long as it doesn't go over or under the restraints posted in the rules!) We do still accept HENTAI entries but no longer have a separate contest for it as all entries compete against themselves prior to the convention. Out attendees LOVE seeing the hentai works you submit so please do keep them coming! You have live action videos? We WANT them. You have My Little Pony videos? We WANT them! You have ANY video not previously submitted to us? We WANT them!
What you get from your submission is a potential to win one of our illustrious awards which are all thought up during judging to be some witty comment related to the video itself as well as our standard Best in Show and I Have The Weirdest Boner Right Now awards. All of our awards this year will be given out in the form of Golden VHS Tapes. We will transfer the winning entry onto said VHS Tape along with recordings of our judging sessions. The Tapes will be labeled based on the winning entry and award title and come in a clear clamshell case with a cover as well. So far they look awesome! Check them out below:
