   These stats don’t really surprise me, I think most people in the tech industry are night owls, after all, it’s the only time we can actually get things done undisturbed!

   if you thought this would go off without one or two pressure crisis fires it wouldnt be realistic.. i would bet the last few hrs have the most lessons… there should be a last few hrs team already rearranging the teams and optimizing talent and structure.. at that point fairness and democracy is for kindergarden and its about valuation for everyone..the founders…and the launch and the goal of the groups mission… the top mind in the room should take over operation last 3 hours and start a war room..only one mans opinion but it works in time crisis situations

   Robert, that works IF there is already an established authority hierarchy. I’m not in the room, but it appears that while a core group of leaders has arisen, I’m not sure any one of them would be able to have every other established leader suddenly defer to them in the way you describe.
   In my experience, each group leader would prefer to get a list of last minute tasks, and maintain the leadership, communication and teamwork already established. And to be honest, if the leaders don’t already know that list, I’m not sure any one person in the room can write the list for all teams anyway.
   This isn’t a crisis - this is just very fast moving project work.

   im so far from the room its silly for me to even be commenting, besides the room is far smarter than me anyway… but i can only play from interpretation of whats out there and how i can imagine the anxiety with such high expectations after being techcrunched and so many uniques ..maybe im the only one who would need the xanax by now… crisis was probably bad choice of words… anyways i so respect what you guys are accomplishing and am only commenting out of jealousy of not being there and wanting to be involved with such talent and ambition … cant wait until launch…

   [...] visits a day, and then the TechCrunch. Twitter was rocking, as was FaceBook, VoSnap was cool, but StartupWeekend was the hook. BizDev was gelling you could tell from the lack of yelling and the plenty of charts [...]
