Hi,

Why are the evaluation deadlines pushed ahead so much? It makes me feel like my time is not being respected.

I'm not full production at this point and that sort of thing would make me second guess whether I wanted to be.

I think the evaluation deadlines should be more reliable - especailly since this is speculative gain that requires a commitment to make substantial earnings here. For instance - if I were to pitch an idea, I'd have to know I could line of the resources I'd need to shoot the video if I had a winning pitch - but I'd be hard pressed to make timely arrangements on my end when they depend on deadlines on this end that float.

Personally, I'd rather see you under 'promise' (set a long enough date initially) and over deliver (come in ahead of time if possible) than the way it is now. I've only been here for about 1 month, and I've noticed so many deadlines pushed ahead at the '11th hour', so to speak and several times.

Will this be something I'll have to accept here or is it something is the works for change?

Thanks for your question. We do our best to ensure that sponsors meet evaluation deadlines are honored and, in the event that they are extended, the extension is reasonable. We appreciate your patience and look forward to seeing your work!

Thanks Caleb. I'll admit my 'question' was 'possibly' ;) born of some minor frustration, or spent patience, that I felt. I think it may be part and parcel to the 'contest' excitement element to all of this. That part truly is a good lure :) Thanks for keeping on top of it for us.
