and there is a lot of free swag generously donated by Facebook and Google. We also have a lot of free food for you, so please eat!
Prizes will be distributed via lottery at drawings on the hour until they are all gone. You must be present in the SIPB office to win. Once you have won a prize, you are ineligible for winning further prizes (unless everyone else present in the office has also already won prizes). To submit your name to the lottery, send an email to hackasaurus@mit.edu with "Submission for: <username>" in the subject line. To remove your name from the lottery, send an email to hackasaurus@mit.edu with "Removal of submission for: <username>" in the subject line.
+The first person to write an application to populate a database according to these email commands and randomly select winners (marking them as ineligible thereafter) wins a free prize.
