Then make sure you register for Code Jam, because you can’t compete in Distributed Code Jam unless you register for and qualify for Code Jam Round 3.

Distributed Code Jam will bring 10 finalists to the onsite finals and give one lucky winner $3,000 USD and a chance to be named the first ever Distributed Code Jam champion.
