I like this deck but I'm unsure why you didn't go with KS. Needing 500 votes to promote this on JSC seems unrealistic. As you can see, no one has made it to the next level and no one is even close. I had 5 people sign up to go on and vote but they weren't given a password and couldn't access the site without it. I gave you my vote.
Thanks MMG,
I understand that this "Elevator pitch" stage seems weird. Neither I am crazy about it. On the other hand they believe that this way they'll keep crappy projects away. I don't know...
It seems the site had a problem, that's why your friends couldn't login. I too couldn't vote. Now it's okay, tell them!
I don't think 500 points are unrealistic. You have 3 weeks time to collect those points and even if you collect them in two days you won't be able to move to the next stage before the end of the week.
My project has already 95 points after one day, so I hope that I'll make it.
Thanks,
L.
