I was slightly considering joining the contest but since I live in Australia and I'm not rolling in money, flying all the way to San Diego just to pitch is beyond me. Well, actually, I can probably dip into my savings to go there but I probably won't. The other problem I have is that I'm not a native English speaker. Although I could articulate my thoughts quite well on paper (or online), I sometimes have trouble verbalising my thoughts specially in high pressure situations. So that's probably another hurdle for people not fluent in English.

Ah well. I still think it's a good contest to join, specially if you live in the US. So, good luck to all of you who are joining. :)

I was about to enter…honestly. But then I realized that I didn't have a lot of cash. In fact, I have NO cash for this.

A trip to California, a hotel room, and the gas to get there…expen$ive at this point in my career. Maybe next year, when I can actually afford to participate if I scrape and scrounge for that year.

Man, you guys make goin' to San Diego sound like a big deal or something.

And now, I suppose, I have to enter something. Though it would be great to have TEO as a TV series, I think I should wait until I'm done with the entire story arc before I streamline it for the idiot box.

I'll just submit my little side project… codenamed “Epiphany”.

I'm still untrustful of all of this. Asking a bunch of comic artists to create ideas for a TV show? What?

well, the deadline is tomorrow. if anybody entered and won, let us know how it turned out.

Well, I did it. I submitted an entry to the Challenge. And I just made it under the deadline, too.

I already know I won't win with my entry (too non-mainstream), but it would be nice to make it to the semi-finals and pitch the thing in front of live people. I'll keep you guys posted if anything else develops.

That's exciting! Good luck to you!

Best of luck to ya!

And on that subject…does anyone want to share their ideas? Or at least show off their artwork that they did-or-were-going-to submit?

I ended up redoing one of my comics from a jam I was in and didn't have the time to finish the other entry I wanted to enter.

I wasn't sure if my submission actually went through however. It kept taking me back to the submission page after I sent in my file and synopsis. I don't think I would win though but I do hope I wasn't late and the submission went through.

Now to collapse from exhaustion. O.o

A friend of mine and I entered as well. I decided to draw a random page from the theoretical comic.

Much good luck to anybody who entered!

i sprained my arm drawing doing that :x then i found out its only in the us
