hardware issue

My submission (video coming later today) has a hardware component. I am wondering whether I should provide multiple copies (e.g. one for each judge), and if so, where to have it/them delivered.

    @Schreibkraft, it looks like you near us here in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. Can you deliver your hardware to our offices today?

    If so, please go ahead and submit your entry (even if it's a draft), and create a note with your submission. We will be notified and can communicate directly with you.

    Sounds awesome. Is this equipment that you would need returned? Send here:

    FamilySearch
    Attn: David Pugmire
    50 East South Temple
    JSMB 5th Floor
    Salt Lake City, UT 84150

    You might not need to set every judge up with this, but maybe send 2 or 3? I'll make sure they get a chance to see it.

    I am also uploading a video and will probably be editing until late. I could probably do five hardware samples if those could be delivered first thing tomorrow (say 9:00 a.m.) with all the online stuff submitted before the deadline tonight, if that works....

    Schreibkraft, I reviewed this further with our team. Anything that is needed for judges to evaluate must be in our hands by the deadline of 11:45 PM Mountain Time today, Jan 15.

    The address I posted is still useful if you can come by, but you'd have to hurry. And yes, your video is key, and I suspect you'll get sufficient mileage and headway with judges with that, even if you can't get the hardware here.

    Makes sense, but is there a place to deliver the hardware sometime between 5 p.m. and 11:45 p.m.?

    @Schreibkraft, we can accommodate receiving your hardware up until 11:45pm MST today.

    Please create a draft submission and post a note with it so we can communicate directly with you privately.

    Challenge Post shows me at 100% but I don't see anything on the submissions tab....

    @Schreibkraft, that may be the completeness of your profile. Have you submitted your app yet? If so, what is the name? I don't see you listed as having done a draft submission.

    The video showcases the technology, but it doesn't run as a stand-alone app. It is principally a hardware innovation so I am not sure what to submit that would make any sense.

    Go ahead and complete the steps to submit your idea and let the judges decide. I am available if you would like to bring me the hardware to share with the judges as part of your submission.

    My profile and portfolio both show at 100% but I still don't see it in the submission gallery. I haven't seen any other links for submitting. Am I missing something?

    Yes, Please call me!
