Does anyone want to create a community site for the contest? I am looking for another Django developer who can participate in an all-night code sprint. The site would:

1. Show an online score board.

2. Track Watson's performance (like shkb is doing on Google Docs)

3. Aggregate pictures, videos, and written analysis of the event

I think you should've been doing this on Sunday...

I didn't think of it until now. I assumed that the official IBM site would have a way of tracking Watson's progress.

Just to clarify, I didn't do anything but link to what ckwalsh made and posted at I guess a bad time to draw attention. Least here, the reddit discussion seems to be going well.

I don't have the time to build a site at the moment (curse you schoolwork!), but if you'd like to help maintain/update the docs I'd love the help.

Thank you for the offer. I did some more research and I found a few good resources for normal Jeopardy games. I have less of an itch to scratch right now, so I think I will just hack on my main project tonight.
