Metro.co.uk venture candy competition

Entered the metro.co.uk venture candy competition, got invited to the second round where I met the judges and picked up a lot of good advice. Unfortunately did not make the final cut. Reasons being;

1)They thought we would get big to quick, and would not be able to handle the traffic that would be sent our way. Please tell me I remembered to tell the judges Fantator uses "memcached" and "cloud hosting" which will go a long way in helping it withstand the traffic, hmm I am sure I did.

I have this crazy thought in my head that if I made all the judges stand up and do the Fantator Oath, Fantator would have made it through to the final round. I guess you win some, you lose some.
Good luck to those who did get through.
