As it's an allround magic contest, every kind of magic is allowed.

I'll be clearing it up in the rules right now.

Sadly, we have only had three submissions so far. Like the policies say, the contest will be moved for another week as long as there are less than ten people taking part.

We probably won't make it the 22nd of March either but we'll see. Someday there must be enough contestants to start the judging process.

Be sure you don't privatize your submission(s). We just received another one but we aren't able to watch it, which means we unfortunately can't count it in.

How do you confirm that your video has been submitted?

When you submit anything, it will tell you if your submission has been send or if there was an error. If you didn't get the error, then that is the confirmation you are looking for.

When you submitted an invalid video or link, we will send you a message personally. If you don't hear anything from us, it's all fine.

We actually cannot do that right now. Unlike most online contests like most ones on YouTube, we actually follow the international laws for internet contests which state that we have to follow the actual rules we put up.

However, we have decided to stop the contest as soon as possible, which will be the 3rd of May. And by then we may finally have enough contestans anyways.

Hope you understand. We know the possible consequences of not following these rules, and the fact that it's a relatively small prize doesn't make much difference in that case. Sorry for the inconvenience.
