At the review part right now. That's absolutely right. Why bother doing projects like this when there's nothing stopping you from playing the game for real.
There's nothing more valuable than going from A -> D (open for sales) and then realizing you have no fucking idea how to get to E. Excuse my language.
Heck, if you win that, you'll basically get a free ticket to fly to the Valley and join the current YCombinator class, permanently.
