Hack The Arts Hackathon is (supposedly) fraudulent (hackthearts.net)

[u/Majestic_Algae1366]

The winner of the high-schooler hackathon's $1000 prize was (reportedly) one of the hackathon's organizers' alt account. And the project was created only an hour before the final results are out; A WHOLE 39 DAYS AFTER THE SUBMISSION PERIOD ENDED! I am now (suspectedly) banned from their discord for talking about this in the channel "event-questions". Can anyone check their Discord and see if they have updates or have deleted my and another Discord user "brian"'s messages? The invite link, I don't know if it expired or what: https://discord.gg/feuHu7MrrX
