I'm a bit late to this party, but I noticed something in the rules for the Animation category.

Since published contest rules are a legally-binding contract, everybody needs to be really careful about what is stated, and the actual words used. That is why this particular error is so problematic. The third bullet point in the 'Entry Specifications' contains a serious error:

"•Max file size is 50MB and the excepted files are: doc,pdf,rtf,txt,jpg,gif,png,ppt,fla,mov,m4a,avi,wmv,swf,tif,mp3,divx,mpg,mpeg,mp4,3gp,docx,md" (Emphasis added) What this rule actually says, is that any entry submitted, that is in any of the formats listed, will NOT be 'accepted' (which is undoubtedly the word that was intended); in other words, any file, in any of the formats listed, are to be excluded ('excepted') from consideration. A fine, but critical, distinction.
