In the majority of tasks the team should be composed of 1 to 6 people. The exception is the Amazon Developer Center Poland’s Task – if you plan to work on this task, your team should be composed of 1 to 5 people.

It means you can go as a lone wolf or gather together with your friends! You don’t need to register your team prior to the event unless specified otherwise in particular task’s terms.

Read the requirements of the task you want to work on, if you agree with them, proceed. If you’re lost or not sure what to do, contact our mentors through our Discord channels and ask for advice!

Please remember, that all of team members have to create their Discord accounts (Discord ID’s from our server are required to upload the project to ChallengeRocket).

No problem with that! You can work alone but…

If you want to form a team there are two ways to find team members:

• register to our Discord where’s a special channel for attendees looking to join or form a new team
• talk to your friends or university buddies! Tell them about the cause, we’re sure they’ll join you!

If you’re impatient you can start looking for your teammates just now on HackYeah Discord and on the ChallengeRocket platform!

Yes! Just make sure that your team leader mentioned you during uploading the project.

Sure, you can change your team as many times as you want. Just make sure to be a member of one when you upload the project, this is the final declaration of who is in your squad.

Yes! No problem with that! We do not verify your team until you upload the project, it is totally up to you in how many teams you’ll be a part of.

Yes, of course! If only the regulations of these two tasks allow it.

Feel free to talk to our mentors and partners on our Discord channels and ask them for advice. How about organizing a brainstorm with other HackYeah 2021 attendees?

Each of the tasks will have separate rules regarding evaluation. 

For the GovTech Tasks the judges will judge according to the following proportions:

Idea — 30%

Technical aspects — 30%

Design — 20%

Relation to category — 10%

WOW! Factor — 10%

All the rules and details about Partners Tasks can be found in the description section of each task on our website.

Prepare a short presentation, which will persuade the Judges that your idea is amazing! It should be interesting and unique, but brief. Don’t forget to include all of the main information about your project. Tell the Judges what is the problem you are solving, how you want to solve it, how is the project supposed to work.

SOON

Upload your project to the platform required for each task. The majority of the tasks should be uploaded to ChallengeRocket, however, each Partner might choose their own platform. Check the task descriptions to learn where to upload your project. 

Please remember, that you have to create your Discord account before uploading the project to ChallengeRocket (Discord ID’s from our server are required).

Finished early?

• If you feel like your task might win, start thinking about your pitch presentation.
• Start another task! There is no limit on how many you can fulfil!
• You’re tired and don’t feel like doing anything? Chill a bit or watch one of our webinars!

No! If you don’t like what you came up with it is not mandatory to upload it. Yet we still encourage you to try as maybe the judges will see something in it that you don’t see 🙂

It depends on the task.

Some Partner Tasks might require you to transfer the rights after you accept the prize. To make sure what are the regulations in your task check the rules of it. You will find a link with regulations next to the task description.

You should upload it to the platform required by the terms of the task. Each of the Tasks may have different regulations, so check the rules in the task section on the website.

Please remember, that you have to create your Discord account before uploading the project to ChallengeRocket (Discord ID from our server is required).

Sure, do as many as you can! There are no limits to that!

The deadline is the deadline. You cannot bend it and cannot break it so better make sure everything is ready a few minutes earlier not to miss it! You can upload not finished project on ChallengeRocket earlier and keep changing it later — this way you won’t miss the deadline.

If you make it to the Pitches, then yes. The jury chooses the best teams from each task and invites them to a video conversation where they pitch their ideas one by one.

Once the jury board chooses the list of teams that qualified to the Pitches, we will announce it on our Discord channel #questions-to-organizers and also on our Facebook live stream.

After this, please contact with organizers on Discord #questions-to-organizers.

Yes! The registration will be open all the time so you can join us even in the middle of the night!

Jasne! Organizatorzy wydarzenia i uczestnicy będą komunikować się także po polsku, więc nie musisz się martwić.

Pamiętaj tylko, że prezentacja Twojego projektu musi być wygłoszona po angielsku. Upewnij się zatem, że chociaż jeden członek Twojego zespołu mówi po angielsku!

Don’t hesitate to ask questions to organizers on our Discord channels.

This is a space, where we come with all answers about ChallengeRocket. We will help you with a pleasure 🙂

It’s simply!

• Register to the platform
• Register to our hackathon — HackYeah 2020 Worldwide
• Remember, only team leader (a person who will upload your project) needs to register to ChallengeRocket.

Yes! As long as system is open and works, team leader can edit your crew members – which means that you can change the crew even after uploading your project. Only team leader can do this.

Yes! Your team leader adds the crew members during uploading the project – he just needs to type members’ data and Discord ID’s. Then, as long as system is open and works, team leader can edit your crew members, which means that he can also add a new member. Only team leader can do this.

Yes! As long as system is open and works, team leader can edit your crew members, which means that he can also remove someone. Only team leader can do this.

Yes! Your team leader adds the crew members during uploading the project – just make sure that your team leader typed your data and Discord ID.

Yes! Your team leader types the name of a team during uploading the project. Then, as long as system is open and works, team leader can edit the name of your team. Only team leader can do this.

The deadline passes at 10 AM on Sunday. Sharp! But… don’t leave it for the last moment, the platform is rock solid but imagine a lot of people will try to upload their solutions all at once… It might lead to an accidental DDOS attack. 

Please remember, that you have to create your Discord account before uploading the project (Discord ID’s are required).

Prepare it in any program you want, but please save it in the PDF format. Not all Judges will have PowerPoint, keynote or whatever you use and all of them will be able to see PDF file.

Make it a short PDF file, it can be done in PowerPoint, keynote or anything else. Make sure to use any mock-ups, screenshots you have, describe your idea briefly but with all the details you believe are important, let it be an online pitch of your project.

It is not allowed to submit one project to more than one category.

It should be a short description (more of 3 paragraphs than 3 pages). Tell the judges what is the problem you are solving, how you want to solve it, how is the project supposed to work, don’t tell them the story of the world cause they won’t have time to read it all.

It should be rather short (let’s say 3 paragraphs max). Remember that the Judges have to evaluate plenty of projects, so they don’t have the time to read your 5-page essay ????

Do it in English, please! Some of the judges do not speak Polish, so they won’t be able to evaluate your project if you do it in Polish, unless the task partner prefers Polish – see task subpage.

Please put it all in one repository that can be checked out online (GitHub, Bitbucket, Gitlab, etc), if your code consists of few modules (API, web, mobile) you can place them in separate folders.

Please make sure, that you allowed Judges the access to the repository. Your repository settings should allow us to review the content 🙂

Don’t make it too long – 3 minutes is a maximum of how much a judge can spend on watching it. Make it an awesome ad of your project, not a story of the universe (not that the history of the universe is not interesting… it’s just that the Judges didn’t come here to hear it ????

Add anything you have: mock-ups, simulations, sketches, prototypes, screenshots, etc. Let the Jury see the full picture of your project!

Please remember to upload it with an example passes because the Judges need to have access to it.

Important! Only team leader can edit the project submission. We strongly recommend all teams uploading to ChallengeRocket to follow the instructions.
