Congratulations to all who participated in making this year's Rumble
the strongest yet! A big hand for our expert judges for all their hard
work and feedback in qualifying teams for the public voting.

We would like in particular to thank our sponsors for making this
event possible, and all of the Rails Rumble teams for making it
necessary! This year, an even larger number of teams plan to continue
development of their applications past the Rumble, and we wish them
the best -- remember us when you're famous!

Everyone, be sure to keep an eye on your email, as we'll be sending
out information regarding prizes (including random judge prizes),
along with info regarding your GitHub repositories and Linode servers
over the next couple days. You'll be guaranteed the continued use of
these services until 9/19 and there will be special incentives to
continue on in case you're interested.

Congratulations once again not just to the Rumble winners, but to
everyone who completed an entry, helped out and took part in the event
either as a contestant or a judge. We were absolutely blown away by
the quality of all the entries this year, and look forward to seeing
many of you next time!
