ok, yeah i guess astu was lazy with the flo stuff :)

terrible submission system,i must say.

well, compared to most movie festivals this was easier.

nosfe: sadly yes

macaw: yeh, i tried explaining to the main orga that all this burocracy of requiring a signed thing is no good for sceners but he insisted that it was necessary, and that other festivals also had it and blablabla. so yes: it sucks alot, but its the only way :/

ps: can we still submit? I think we might be interested in submitting Muon Baryon.

ps you should've offered 'fake the signature' service ;)

decipher: nop, sorry, deadline was really end of july. you always submit it next year :)

nosfe: :D

decipher: meant to write "you can always submit it next year." ofcourse.
