Are there any rules about the anim competition?
I feel I must be missing something, because it seems too easy. (No sarcasm intended) Are there any vets with advice?

Hats off to you if you have met the following criteria:
I will leave it to others to answer your specific questions. But I will say that the phrase ‘too easy’ doesn’t often come into my mind in the context of the animation competition.

Like Joe Johnson said 3D Studio Max is a very complex,
but it is a easy program to learn. Last year was my
first year on my teams animation team and I did the
whole animation when the head animator could not show
up because he had surgery. While our animation was not
submitted because of video equipment problems, I
enjoyed the project and plan on participating this
year. Even if your animation is not submitted like
ours last year you get a lot of experience and it will
help in future years. Good luck!
