[[File:StupidHackathon_2022.jpeg|right|250px|alt=Stupid Hackathon 2024]]
[[:Village:Moonrock]] is delighted to present the 4th annual* Stupid Shit No One Needs & Terrible Ideas Hackathon.

=== What is a Stupid Hackathon? ===
This Stupid Hackathon is a time-limited event that gives creators the opportunity to produce variously useless, horrifying, boring, and/or bad things. Create terrible things alone or with a group! After 24 hours of production time, bring your terrible thing to our Stupid Hackathon showcase for judging.

=== Who can participate? ===
Any ToorCamp attendee is eligible to submit a project for the Stupid Hackathon.

=== How do I participate? ===
2026 Stupid Hackathon signups will be held from 6:30PM to 7:00PM on Friday at Prime Dome. There will be a brief walkthrough of what to expect, followed by plenty of time to chat with other entrants to form teams or generate ideas.

The Hackathon showcase will be held ahead of closing remarks Saturday evening at Prime Dome, just before closing remarks. All participants will be invited to demo their creations. Our panel of judges will award trophies in categories they've probably made up on the spot.

=== What can I win? ===
Probably nothing!
