I'm sorry you were hyped and then realized you couldn't participate. Twilio requires people to be 18+ to take part in the hackathon because only then they are legally able to accept our terms. It is valid feedback though and we'll explore options to allow minors in our next hackathon.

Hey. Could you explain why the hackathon is 18+ in the competitions terms? I was super hyped up to participate...
