Submitted :) As someone mentioned on this thread. It definitely helped us think through our idea and communicate it in a concise manner. The biggest take-away for us was : Simplify + Simplify + Simplify = Amplify

I wanted to, but I didn't. I didn't want to add an average application to the pile. I'll keep working on it for next time :)

I have submitted but found that people I started with aren't so interested in something other than just work. So I am one of those submitting as a 1 man behind the project.

So I decided to work alone for now.

Simplify -> Amplify was really great to improve my project.

I find making videos brutal! We get so focused on not screwing it up that we screw it up!

did you watch the samples? They seemed pretty low key

Yeah, I would say our vid is low key :)

I was very tempted, but since the idea is still so fresh (1 week old) we decided to hold it until next round :)

We held off submitting for W12 as we would have submitted late and instead submitted early for S12 hopefully we make it this round...
