[Andy Striker]

I ended up making an animation and i'm having trouble uploading it because it has a "wrong file extension" aka. mp4. help?

 

[Overflow]

I am soo excited about this event.

 

[Brock Pootisson]

Basicly, you aren't required to prove that it was done in 72hr frame unless you want to.

Can i post the videos here, as the 72 hour has started, tbh. i had finished the video for a long time, is it worth to post them here, there are finished (If Valve releases new Taunts)

Use a thirdparty host, like dropbox

Not entierly sure what you mean by this. There's still half an hour till the Jam starts.
If you started working on these videos before the Jam, then they're not valid.
Videos have to be hosted on a different site then linked here, anyway.

If your file extension is not allowed, you can either .zip it or use an external download link, like Dropbox. However, please keep in mind that entries are supposed to be created during the jam time, not before - so you'll need to start something new.

The jam has not started yet - we still have about 30 minutes to go. Like I said above, you need to create something new during the jam time.
