Interesting concept. Facebro login totally didn't work for me though, and I couldn't really figure out how to use it, and I'm not really sure that this will be as fun as it sounded on paper.
Edit: Was able to get login to work. I hate comodo so much. >_<
Further impressions: Could be an interesting model for presenting threaded conversation.

contestantSorry you had that experience nodejitsu keeps changing there dns records so need to keep changing the facebook app to accept either our Site.jitsu.Com or Site.jit.su thanks for letting us know... I have updated the facebook app so if you want u can check it out and login
- jesusabdullahjudge
Nodejitsu hasn't changed either of those at all. site.jitsu.com, site.jit.su and site.nodejitsu.com will all work. Just pick one and roll with it.

so after talking with mmalecki from nodejitsu the server was randomly picking the header for the referrer so we were able to fix it so should be no problems in the for seeable future with login
Very very good job with the polish. Gameplay was nice and smooth, and it didn't feel like there was anything missing in particular. I don't think I'd play this game with regularity though.

contestantHonestly, in its current form, I wouldn't play it regularly either. I think it's a cool start to something pretty fun, though.
Dig the new spin on the old classic. Would like to see a more old-school look/feel to the threads (they're way too narrow) and a "browse the fs for pictures" button for those of us that don't have a graphical file manager to drag files from (
ls4 lyfe). Also interested in seeing this get open sourced.Solid gameplay. Reminds me a little of that Dead Ops minigame from COD3. Add powerups, moar players and moar maps for something special.
Between the MIDI, the GIFs and the holy crap awesome hardware hax, I'm a HUGE fan of this project. Seeing this probably made my day. In terms of demoing this project, it would be sweet if you could livestream the sweater over webcam. I'd also love to see a 2.0 version of the sweater with EVEN MOAR LEDs if possible. :D
Oh, and one last thing: "don't blame us blame nodejitsu" THAAAANKS XD
SaraJo
contestantno, YOU made OUR day.
We had added more LEDs, but didn't have a wireless battery in the end. Super disappoint.
Nice visualization! What would be doubleplus-sweet would be if there was a curl command that worked something like:
$ curl -x POST -d @package.json http://woah.nko3.jitsu.com/12345 $
Yeah, that would be cool.
benfoxall
contestantThanks! And yeah, hadn't really thought about curl/api access - that would be a super addition.
This could be a lot of fun with some tweaks. The sound should be mutable, I should be able to find other people on radar, and I should spawn closer to other people. I flew across the US but never found anybody to pwn!
I bet this would be sweet if you had teams with different cities, and you could bomb each other's cities. NPCs might help keep the pace up as well. :)
Casear
contestantYes, we tried to put cities on map. but we don't have enough time implement attach cities. so we remove the cities part. Thanks for your advice
The demos for this look pretty neat. I had a hard time figuring out how to use it though, and your voice in the screencast is pretty quiet. I feel like this could be pretty sweet with more documentation and more javascript examples (coffeescript confuses me).
Evangenieur
contestantHi thanks for the feedback, you can switch code from javascript to coffeescript at everytime using the top switcher
- contestant
and from coffeescript to javascript ;)
I tried to enter "tater tots" and "pudding" (the two things I have in my house) and, yeah, that didn't really work. ;) This seems like it's useful more for the indecisive person with a well-stocked kitchen, rather than the person that only has a few disparate ingredients and needs something creative and not disgusting.
I'm still a little confused about what rdio is about (I hadn't heard of it until today) but I'm totally eavesdroppin' on phlipper right now. We had some good jams going, for real.
phlipper
contestant@jesusabdullah thank you for the feedback!
Rdio is a music streaming service which lets you have your collection in the cloud and listen to it on any device.
Eavesdrop was created as a way to help be more social with your friends and discover new music.
Thanks again!
First, a word of warning: http://grubhub.com is a service for ordering delivery, so you'll need to come up with a new name for this puppy.
I dig the idea. The ux could use a little polish (I had a hard time finding the ingredients/steps sections because they were so far down the page, and the image spot is pretty big), but the basics seem to work pretty good. I'd be interested in seeing how people like my mom would take to this. :)
I use irc and email for all of this stuff, so I don't really find this useful at all. To be fair, I hated Podio and Asana too, and would probably hate campfire.
ALL THAT SAID if this got refactored to be an irc log explorer that could be pretty useful. For bonus points, allow people to link freenode nicks to github and twitter accounts, possibly gmail too.
Sweet screencast, very very very interesting/compelling idea. However, the ux is pretty confusing. I can't really even figure out how to move my wizard. I feel like I'm having a bad acid trip. :(
I would definitely definitely be interested in seeing this iterated upon. My advice: Polish, polish, polish, polish. Ideally, somebody that's completely 100% hammered should still be able to kinda-sorta figure out what's going on.
This is a really cool idea. I'm not sure how much I would use it in real life, especially since I'd worry about people graduating from #poopin to #$1000.00 on my twitter account. (being able to set up fine-grained limits would probs help a lot) All that said, once you get the shit set up this is straight up SEAMLESS. Very impressive.

contestantHey Josh, thanks for the review!
All accounts are limited to a $50 daily limit, so that would be the worst of it. They would also have to send to another HashPay/Stripe account, so we would have some recourse.
Thanks again!

I can live with that. :D
First of all, I'm really skeptical of the idea of ranking my friends. I like ALL my friends! But I went in to give it a shot anyway. This effort was stymied immediately by the best error message ever:
http://imgur.com/cnJES
So, I guess that was a no-go.
(PS where did you find so many pictures of asian girls and asian girls only?? XD )
freehaha
contestantHi, thanks for voting. It's probably my inaccurate words that lead you to the idea of ranking your friends. We want people to share their friends, and want others to find friends here. What we want people to rank is the accuracy of your description/tag describing your friends not the friends themselves. The error messages, however, is basically caused by a bug that if a user logging in when he is already logged in in facebook the application will failed to get the identity of the user and thus keep throwing out error messages. we'll fix it when the judging ends but for now you'll probably have to logout facebook before logging in our site.
(PS. they are our friends =p)
The concept sounds pretty sweet. Unfortunately when I logged in with the goog it said my name was Dan and said something about pizza hut and olive garden, none of which I could really make heads or tails of.
I certainly wouldn't mind seeing this come up later with a bit of polish; I'd certainly give it a serious go.
I have to say: Holy shit, this is awesome. F'srs, I dig it a lot. fwiw I'm using chrome beta and it works great.
masylum
contestantThanks, we will try to open source the GIF encoder lib this week. Right now, most of the headers are hardcoded for the contest use case.
Funky idea! Definitely different. The use of flash is annoying though, and I had a hard time figuring out how to use it.
