I vote #1, then we don't have to wait as long! Gotta make things interesting, this is the DVC. But any option should be workable.

All you heartless people who want #6 ;). Dylan, next time you may need to make strategic omissions to the list of options.

whatever works for you
 

Having more time sounds appealing, but really I'll use up all the time given whether it's a weekend or a month. I just hope I can manage a month's worth of better.

I vote for #2


EDIT-Screw that I vote for 3,6 they are pretty much the same thing.

Beside the rational side of this, think on what would make you feel satisfied and that you've accomplished something, that should be your decision Dylan. Good luck! I'm in for whenever the contest is going to be held.

Whatever you decide, please open the sign up thread again - I want to join the contest, too!

Ok, enough people have spoken, I'll keep the start date the same, but extend the time allowed to complete it. Finish date is likely Sunday April 2nd (ooh, that's awfully close to April 1st... Hmm... maybe I should go with a theme instead of a twist...)

Finish date may be shuffled around, depending on my return date, but you will know long before then.

Sign up thread is reopening BUT I am capping the amount of entries eventually, so sign up fast!

this is my first one... finish date is april 1st...when is the start date??

So does that mean you are going to attend NAB Dylan? ;)

Hey Rob, if I make it back from Africa, probably. :)

So we are still starting DVC5 at the same time, but the closing date is still a little up in the air. I get back from South Africa on April 8th, so I could make that the closing date, or I could wrap it up anytime before that. I'm not big on giving you so much time, so if I do, expect something more difficult. Or, we could wrap it up on say March 31st, and I can get someone to start posting the videos then (psst. Rob, email me ;), and we judge when I get back.
