Well it’s 8:30 am and we are about to get started with 24 hours of hard core web development. I’ll be updating our progress throughout the day.
8:55 am Opening comments
8:57 am Our non-profit is Little Brother: Friends of the Elderly
12:07 pm Lunch break with a Rock Band challenge
There are some hard core Rock Band players here. I hope our rookie team can do well, and by that I mean not place last. I think we’ll do well. Here’s the band…
Vocals: Robert Fischer
Guitar: Nate Kadlac
Drums: Andy Tinkhan
Bass: Kathleen O’Brien, from Little brothers
So far we’re in 2nd place…
6:58 pm Dinner time. Mmmm Chipotle.
Here is the official flickr stream for the event >> Photo me, baby!
Notice how Team Ruby.mn is properly featured?
Alicia and Nate have created a sweet site design that just blows away Little Brother’s current site. Justin and I are hacking away at the CMS. Lars is maxing out his credit cards with the online donations. Andy has written a book of RSpec tests. And Coung and Robert are building the volunteer sign-up. Everything is still parts is parts but everything is progressing nicely.
8:17 pm Little Brothers brought in a surprise for us. We got a clown. No one else got a clown. We rule.
12:02 am Half way there. I’m tired.
12:32 am Domino’s Pizza just delivered. Why did I think it was a good idea?
3:27 am Sierra Bravo just gave out some raffle prizes. I won “The Ultimate MAtix Collection” in HD-DVD. I don’t have an HD-DVD player yet and someone just told me Blue-Ray won the format war so I got that going for me. Which is nice.
5:12 am Can’t. Speak. In. Complete… Sentences…
7:05 am I just noticed the sun in coming up. I’ve been awake for 25 hours now. So tired…
9:35 am The site looks sweet. We’re just putting on the final touches and preparing for our demo.
9:44 am Time for a photo check-in.
THIS IS NO PLACE FOR THE WEAK!
TEAM RUbY.mn hard at work.
10:51 am 1h 10 m left. Subversion commits are flying all over the place. Robert is also live blogging the end.
