The website is the source of truth — sign up, claim a spot, and confirm attendance here to be on the door list and in the credit-band ranking. A Luma or Partiful RSVP shows up next to your name as an interest signal, but only the website list decides who gets in.
How to win a Cursor credit
We have 119 Cursor credit codes for participants. The ranking is computed off the website signup list: claim a spot, confirm attendance, and the top 119 by merged PRs to the cursor-boston community repo (signup time as the tiebreaker) land in the credit band. Merge a PR to move up; open a submission PR on event day to unlock the code itself.
How to submit your project
On event day, open a PR into the sports-hack-2026-submissions branch with a folder named after your GitHub handle containing one meta.json describing the project: title, description, video URL (Loom / YouTube / any explainer), GitHub repo URL, and a deployed URL.
Hard deadline: 4:00 PM ET on Tuesday, May 26 (event end). Your PR must be opened before this moment to be eligible for AI scoring. One second late and your AI eval is gone — but human judges still review every merged submission, so the judges track stays open.
Winners: 3 on the AI track + 3 on the judges track = 6 total. Full submission rules + public board →
