Hopefully not dumb question about ROG Rig Reboot 2020

I told my daughter about the ROG Rig Reboot 2020 earlier in the week. She was complaining about her PC and not being able to game competitively recently, plus she does digital art stuff, so figured she might care. Her Huion pen was broken, so she did the animation with just a mouse.   She created a video which should've satisfied the video requirements here --> https://gleam.io/cbeo9/asus-rog-rig-reboot-2020, 30-60 sec max, show the rig, tell why she deserves to win, hashtag in description & be creative.   She's now freaking out because she didn't think it was submitted correctly. She sees on the gleam.io site that there are 3413 entries, but neither myself or she remembers something to 'click' and participate. I also just figured someone was going to comb through YouTube via #ROGRigReboot20 and review them individually. Seemed insane, but didn't see another way.   QUESTION: Was there some link on Gleam.IO where you officially were supposed to submit your entry? Or was posting it on YouTube with the hashtag sufficient enough?

To enter the competition, you needed to post the video on youtube and fill out the gleam form which was in the video description. It had you link to the video and fill in some other details (I believe, I never actually applied). I believe they do this so they have contact information for the winners and potentially so they can ensure that all entrants meet the deadline. Unfortunately, I do not think they go through the youtube videos with the hashtag so unless you filled out the form, I do not think the submission would be considered. 

Sorry for the bad news, the video was great and looked like it took alot of hard work.

I am far from an expert in this so please correct me if I’m wrong.

Thanks again. I think she was prepared for not winning (I also tried to prepare her for that), but not getting her entry in the competition to be considered is going to be bad. I'll just tell her the news tomorrow.

 

I used the competition to get her revved up about creating animations again, but screwed the pooch on this one. I should've caught that detail for her. Well, sh*t.

 

I absolutely don't expect this, but if a bored LTT person wanted to say "Nice job, but we're going with another contestant. Thanks for the video!", that would be super helpful. I 100% don't expect it (nor would they likely even read this), but figured it wouldn't hurt to post. Don't want to appear entitled or begging, especially when it was a misunderstanding on my/our part.

Sorry to hear you've missed out, while I'm not part of LMG either I agree with @zeusthemoose, was an excellent effort and must have taken a good amount of time to do, nice job 👍

*** Thread locked ***

 

Please use the official competition thread for any discussion and questions. Posting competition entries outside of that thread is not allowed (our rules about advertising are still in effect).

 

Like said, the form has place for video link and IIRC YouTube channel too. I can't access it this year to verify.
