Awesome. There was a little bit of discussion here about the winner (http://findthin.gs/) a few days ago at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4659320 .
I have to say that I was really surprised with the prizes described at http://blog.railsrumble.com/2012/10/13/prizes-prizes-prizes/ . It seems modest given the sheer scale of the event (500 teams) and the size of some of the sponsors. Our local start-up weekend awarded $20,000 in cash between the top three winners, in addition to a lot of free services, and the competition wouldn't be nearly as stiff.

It's too bad that Django Dash and Rails Rumble are limited to Django and Rails, respectively. There are a lot of exciting things happening in the Python community outside of Django. Ditto for Ruby and Rails.
Edit: Using Rails for Rails Rumble is optional. Awesome! Also, it isn't written in the Django Dash rules that Django has to be used for the Django dash, but doesn't say that it's optional, either.
