It doesn't seem like the link is buggy -- it just looks like they force you to go through an ad... (I'll look for another copy of the announcement, but this was all I could find...)

Why did you say prize to Salil and not Omer and Avi at the same time? I don't get it... seriously?

Because Salil and I are both at Harvard, so I'm showing my Harvard bias.
