The thing that gets me is the whole "apply early to have a better chance" is almost certainly not true. My team's unlisted video had all of two views from mid-february, when it was submitted, and that's it. The world is a very different place today due to covid, and I regret not waiting til closer to the deadline to submit so we could factor that into the plans.

Edit: Also because we made a lot of progress between February and March, and while I was able update the application with some of the biggest stuff, I recognize that the initial impression was still the important one. If and when I apply to the next batch, I might start he application early again - but I don't think I will submit it more than a week before the deadline.
