I don't have anything to help pad the really low categories... but maybe I'll throw together an entry just to pad it, period.

OMG I so needed a good laugh right nowSilvrdrago wrote:I kinda feel like alowing more entires from the same folks feels like padding........but on the other hand i would hate to see viable catagorys like Robot, Henti and such have such few entrys. I feel like the art in those catagorys won't get a fair chance to shine against the compition if their arn't enough entrys. While i supose it increases your chance of winning.....i don't think there is any fun with out compititon.
Extending the entry period would only help if we drum up more poeple to enter.......
So i sujest we get some large butterfly nets and hang out were cel collectors congrigate.......or demand apon entry into RS chat members supply proof of AB awards entry..........logins to the verious YJ debutys forward members to the AB awards entry proceedures...........
those all seem to suttle......
So the direct approch.....i sujest bear traps around collectors cel books with some sort of electronic confirmation sytem connected to Kill lazers.......mmmh Kiillll lazers........and maybe some man eating sharks with more kill lazers......and maybe we can use the kill lazers too........oh wait what was i talking about.......mmmh...world domination.....



Alright, the extension is a no go. Thank you all for voicing your opinions on this matter. My hope was to drum up new entrants, rather than more entries from the same entrants but you guys all make great points. I guess it makes sense not to extend the deadline after all. Thanks for the input guys.
So, everything will stay as is. No padding will be necessary.
Poe, while I would prefer original stuff, I think a copy used during the production process would be acceptable too. As long as it's not something like a Xerox copy of a page from a graphic novel... that would be kinda wrong.

Why now? Try it.

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Ah, I wasn't so sure about some of the rules that concerns sending the images but I hope they went through okay. I just entered most in for fun.

My cat Temperance I call her Tempe for short.

My cat Seeley is a Sailor Moon fan, too!
I didn't anticipate on having a black female cat and a white male cat or I would have named them Luna and Artemis... oh well.
