A laser harp is easy compared to what we built (a laser shooting gallery
with moving targets, sound effects, and score display)...and we still lost
(probably due to not really trying to market ourselves to win votes).

ok hold on, Artisan's Asylum built a Laser Harp!
If we do accept it wont
be easy. Are we ready to send something in to orbit yet?

challenge will be available a bit later, but it

If you do get selected, the key to winning is not
making the best
project, but getting the most people to vote for you. There's
no objective
judging process, it's all based on how many people click your name on an
online website voting form. But don't worry, the loser still gets a
consolation prize of a couple hundred dollars radio shack gift card.
