Our startup didn't make the cut, so perhaps I'm subconsciously biased. But even so, I think that TC50 is an acceptable venue, and they're fairly upfront with everything, as far as I can tell.

I agree with them DEMO drama - but I'm one to avoid social drama. Jason Calacanis, it seems, isn't. That's fine, he's the founder of the show, more power to him.

And as long as there's competition, everyone will benefit to some degree. Let's just try to lower the drama level a bit.
