Being a BE club author I wouldn't take a 50 dollar cash prize with much interest. I like to invest 20 hours per short story and just the offering of 50 bucks doesn't get my muse out of bed.

And the simple fact that even a four minute animation (unless its 'Order of The Stick style) will take more than 8 hours of work might explain the lack of admin response. (or maybe they haven't noticed the thread yet.)

The only reason why I mentioned a trophy is the last TOB story contest awarded three very cool glass and brass trophies. I have my second place sitting happily on my desk.

If some BE story contest offered another cool trophy like that I'd submit a 20-40 page story for free.

So if I were doing an BE animation contest I'd offer 500$ for first prize and 250$ for second and third place. But that is just me.
