Is it just me or did the number of videos sent in increase from 39 to 49 recently (well after deadline)? Or is that a mistake? Or do I just have a bad memory and it always said 49?

	Caleb Light-Wills Yes, but the sponsor has the right to one round of revisions. submissions will be made public after these have been completed. 12:51PM Jan 12, 2012 Reply
	Kevin Dearing @Caleb Light-Wills Thanks Caleb. Does that mean that they have the right to ask for changes to the video's that have been submitted? I didn't see any info about a revision round in the rules / details (probably just overlooked it though!) 2:37PM Jan 12, 2012 Reply
	Caleb Light-Wills @Kevin Dearing Sorry, I should have been more specific...revisions only apply to Pitch creators. 4:14PM Jan 12, 2012 Reply
	Kevin Dearing @Caleb Light-Wills Ah, ok. Cool. Thanks for your time! 4:25PM Jan 12, 2012 Reply

Are they possibly going to extend this contest? There was a mix-up and I didn't receive the production kit until a few days ago. If not, is there an address that I can send this stuff back. I don't feel right keeping it when I was unable to submit a video. So very sorry.

If Tongal had badges you would have just earned one for "Scout's Honor." I'll check with BODYARMOR about mailing the kit back.

I dont think they sell body armor in stores yet bro but you can still submit a video but it depends on everyone elses videos. You can use the "assets" on the left side of this page and download the body armor images.

Caleb, Are you saying that any video entries from people who did not place in Pitch phases are considered wildcard? What does that mean? I am just curious how the Pitch winners (congrats to them) can be certain to also be able to produce?

Yes, that is correct all non pitch winning entries are considered wild cards.

Is there a way I can buy a t-shirt or some of the product itself since I didn't submit any pitches? I'd like to put together a couple video's but really want the product or t-shirt to tie the product into my video without being a commercial of course..

Once the video phase launches this Friday, we'll be distributing production packages to the 10 winners. We'll also be distributing production packages to the first 10 non-winning or non-pitching Tongalers to request them. More details to come on Friday.

...so yes, we are looking for tricks/stunts/feats, and the people can be wearing the BA gear, drinking BA, or just be in front of the pole hugger. Another way to integrate the messages is to have the characters saying things from the Key Messages (as long as it's natural).

To David Rorie:
If you look at the "LIQUID MOUNTAINEERING" clip, you'll see that there was no direct mention of "HI-TEC", but they did discuss the importance of having the right equipment - namely the shoes--and they talked about the shoes a bit and showed the logo...
