Twitter is the greatest platform for people getting offended on behalf of other people. I bet these armchair warriors will tweet-spam those guys to death.

Not a "challenge" or anything: do you do hackathons? When you know you're not going to win, but also know you're going to be on stage later, an intentionally and blatantly stupid app is the way to go.
