rules of the game? are startups launched in october 2012 accepted?

[ronnydw]

Gameprez for example was launched on 27 october 2012, long before this course started.

I would assume that only startups that are created as project in this startup engineering course would be elligible to compete on the leaderboard? Otherwise this is not a fare game and existing startups are using this as a cheap adverising channel.

The domain age doesn't mean much. Someone could have a domain that was never developed or was re-targeted for this class.

I also agree with ronnydw. More than anything, I think at least a clarification of the rules with respect to such situations is needed.

I'm sorry but I think this is not an issue it's just an opinion!!

Please don't cry and work harder!!

@plmarin "Please don't cry and work harder"? Seriously?

[plmarin]

I don't know!, maybe @ronnydw has a response..

By the way, amazing project. Very very cool. I wish you lots lucky!!

Please keep the discussions constructive.
This is a request to spell out the rules of the game clearly and show these rules upon signup of a new project.
(It is not an attack to gameprez since they also were not aware of any rules).

Understood, sorry for inconvenience!
