Let's be honest. Upshot is pretty solid before the hackathon. It was functioning to some great degree. How many days did the event last? Three days? A mobile app for this hackathon is small. What innovations / cool business logic did they develop in the mobile app? I probably will see none. Pretty UI... maybe that was the winning shot. I am sure.

The fact that Upshot guys haven't spoken is also ridiculous. Or have they?

I also competed. We had from when the hackathon was announced (October 25th) to November 17th to build our submissions.

Unlike most of us here, perhaps they've learned not to feed the trolls ;)
