Frequently Asked Questions

Why do you have so many expert judges?

The reason for this is simply a matter of math: if we want each of the ~200 teams to have at least 3 expert reviews, then 600 expert reviews need to be written. We can’t ask experts to write more than 10 reviews each because we want every review to be as thoughtful as possible. Hence we needed to get over 60 expert judges. Fortunately, we were able to achieve that goal with a very talented pool of judges.

Can I require users to use Chrome / WebKit (or whatever else)?

You can do anything you want, but consider who your judges and audience are. Winners are likely to be near-universally compatible, but some contestants might ignore IE support. As of this writing, the browser breakdown of visitors to this website are:

  • Chrome — 38% (5: 29% / 6: 8.7%)
  • Safari — 26% (5: 16% / 4: 6.7%)*
  • Firefox — 24% (3.6: 20% / 3.5: 3.0%)
  • Internet Explorer — 1.3%

*Google Analytics only gives “531.22.7”–type version strings for Safari. Versions 5.0 and 4.1 seem to be conflated and 5.0 just came out, so don’t exactly trust this breakdown.
