my client/server app got hit last Sunday from someone in Berlin (I'm
in the states). i have concrete proof that the judges did not test my
application in a fair way. to run the demo, my readme.pdf explicitly
states:
type: connect 111-111-1001
they entered: connect 111-111-1101
i have this information from my server logs. they tried the same
incorrect number twice, then disconnected, so they never actually saw
my app run. no hits since sunday. i've posted another message
requesting a response from google, but have not heard a thing (i
haven't seen any posts from anyone at google in about a week). for
now, i'm giving google the benefit of the doubt and hoping to see some
activity over the weekend, since it seems thats the only time a
majority of the judging is occuring.
I don't want to sound arrogant. I'm not saying i would win. In fact,
i think the judging criteria makes it very difficult for a client/
server app to win - my UI is extremely simple, basically a simple
portal into a message-driven service oriented architecture supporting
distributed and scalable Personal and Shared Services. So I've
basically given up a bunch of points on the UI. I'm ok with that, I
knew that when I entered. But if I don't have a chance because a judge
didn't follow basic instructions, well that would be frustrating.
