Can we say that's not acceptable at all ?!
Compared with other winning projects and runners up it's not fair at all, I don't want to sound rude and I'm sorry if someone of the partecipants will get mad with this but the level of some listed projects is really low compared to our one...

With more than 110 reactions we expect at least to get a reason why we're not even in the runners up while there are projects that are really "similar" to our one... (I say similar just for not saying anything else...)
Our project was one of the first to be posted after two weeks from the start of the hackathon, and the one I'm talking about was posted around the deadline date...We thought that with 10 days of judging you would have taken also these aspects into consideration...

Even the level of presentation of the project and of details in the blog post is not comparable, come on...

We are very disappointed.

You should give webcam permissions to the browser for let it work.
Iโ€™ve never said we should be the winners and obviously we didnโ€™t pretend to be as Kasuken said, Iโ€™m just comparing our project with the other ones as I would judge if I would have been in the judging side.
I congratulate with the winners but I was expecting much more attention in the judging for an important hackathon, nothing else.

Are you serious?! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
You should check the source code of Moodflix and compare it with Fakeflix before throwing stupid sentences! So in your mind we are so stupid that we also called it with a similar name if we want to โ€œhideโ€ this thing? We also mentioned it in the blog post!!
Canโ€™t believe it ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
