Chairman's Award ambiguity

Hello everyone!

I'm not sure I'm posting this on the right forum but there's an issue with this year's requirements for the chairman's award submission.
I read the manual and it says the following:
Quote:
The video format should be as follows....not more than 5 meg
You can see for yourself:

The problem is that any decent video clip takes much more than just 5 megs. I don't know much about animation but it'd probably be the only option then because maybe animation takes less megs. I am quite sure there will be an update soon though. Otherwise, I don't see how anyone can compress a video into a tiny 5 meg file. Makes no sense!

Anyone got the idea behind this peculiar limitation ?
