What stage of projects are allowed/encouraged to attend? If I already have a start should I not apply?

“This hackathon is for projects you're just starting.” From the more details page after you click through the link

This is correct. We do it to keep things fair.

I would love to attend as long as people start fresh projects at that day. Ideally people will find new partners and form new teams around shared idea. Otherwise it will become another YC pich night for mature(ish) products.

I'm curious, is this actually enforced? If so, how? It seems like it would be trivial to attend with a pre-built project if one were so inclined.
