George from the CodeCombat team here. It was a crazy experience. Nick and I were leaving the stage, I was thinking "okay, that went okay, hope we get an interview!" When they called us back I thought we had biffed a mic transfer to the next team. When we heard we were in this next batch, I couldn't even believe it. Nick and I managed to keep it relatively cool on stage but we got a little silly back stage. Still can't really believe it, and can't wait to be a part of this cohort.

Congratulations! Just curious -- how is this different from RubyWarrior (which I enjoyed playing)?

Congrats. Immediately checked out your product too. My little 4th grader is going to be giving it a spin shortly.

Congrats guys! I really enjoyed your presentation. Obviously the product is the start of something bigger but how you guys worked together on stage to answer questions to what you built is kickass. You peeps are obviously smart, know your market and have the determination to make this big. Too many startups just deliver educational content digitally. That has been done many times over. But very few look at creative ways to keep the user engaged (focused) while being educated. You guys managed to do both. Superb.

Its interesting that at least one other team (friends of mine) applied previously with a somewhat similar that didn't get in. PG apparently selects teams more than ideas. Congrats guys.

  Well they went viral on reddit, that might have helped ;)

That was a great moment -- worth the price of admission, as it were. Don't skimp on the robots, though, seriously. Robots are good.
