As it may not be fair due to popularity/familiarity of some contestants  |
Oh no, the Council watches and judges each vid individually and we use a series of criteria based off of things like how well the vid followed the contest rules to end up with the results. The Viewer's Pick seal is still voted on by the everyone like it was a "regular" vid but the contest voting itself is still done by the CMs.  |

If you need an extension feel free to ask. We give an extension automatically really if you need one just tell us how much time you need and we will see what we can do. |

Well, at this point I'm still hopeful that I can finish in time, but I'll let you know in the next day or two if I can't. _________________

Could I have an extra few days please? I've been motoring through but I'm still only about 2 thirds of my way through my video. And uploading and what-not always seems to take longer than I think it will. _________________

How does Monday June 2nd work for you guys? If you need more than that, just give us a holler!

Traditionally, we use Midnight, Eastern Standard Time on the day of the deadline as the cut-off but any time you need us to "hold the door" a little longer than that, we're always glad to!  |

I've got about an hour's worth of work left to do on this vid, so June 2nd should be plenty of time. Thank you! _________________
