It looks like only Javascript devs are welcome. :\

All devs are welcome! We just had to start somewhere for the tests but the community is language agnostic.

Granted you have to start somewhere, but the second challenge (appears) to not only be JS-specific, but specific to the Prototype JS library.

JS is a prototype based language. I think the word prototype might be throwing you off but its a core concept within JavaScript.

Interesting, what's the long term goal?

The vision's to create a global arena, where as devs we can compete and build projects that matter.

We already have that. It's called real life.

Still I signed up and am present on the leaderboard.

I'm signed up, answered all the questions. I'm on the leaderboard or w/e.

I love code koans.

I want more.

Feed me.

Fair enough. We want to complement real life with a virtual environment and make it easier to collaborate with dev's outside your existing network.

Congrats on the leaderboard status.
