I did not upload any contents of my app, video, screens or code because I did not want to jinx myself 😀
But it is a game made with Sprite Kit where you unlock info about me by unlocking/finishing levels. 🙂
Hi guys #
This is my first post here.
I just have to say that I'm so exited right now #
And I hope I see you in San Fran 😉

Brace yourselves, devs are coming
It will trust me. We were all part of the action from day 1! 😛

So when exactly are Apple expected to announce the WWDC scholarship winners? Any assumptions from previous years?
They say by 6 PM West Coast time, so 9 here on the East Coast. I think they are calling in addition to emailing. They asked for our phone number when we submitted, remember?

I think the phone number was just a secondary contact option for them, incase an email goes unanswered for some strange reason. With different timezones from winners all around the world, calling wouldn't be practical.
Even without iMessage you have to give your phone number when you sign up for the developer program (free or paid) I believe. Either way, there must be some reason they asked for the phone numbers this year. 😕
I heard that last year all that was said was "out of the hundreds that applied.." so I would assume around maybe 1,000 or so this year, given some program inflation for a free account vs mandatory paid account? Apple doesn't give us any idea about the amount of competition though.
So here in the UK, 9pm EST is 5am; where you are getting 9pm EST from? Are there any details I have missed on their website?
It's 4 pm est now, I think they are sent around 6 pm in California and they are 3 hours behind est
It's almost time! I'm so nervous!!! (though after seeing all your amazing projects I am not very hopeful) Haha 😀
Haha! I know! I'm so nervous! I already purchased a ticket, but it would be nice to save $1599.
