Hey everyone! We're super stoked to have you guys participate in Merge and look forward to seeing all of your excellent submissions. First things first, please make sure to familiarize yourselves with some general guidelines to ensure that Merge will be a pleasant experience for everyone.

• Do not organize, promote, or coordinate channels around hate speech in any communication platform (Discord, Gather, etc).
• Racism, sexism, discrimination, prejudice, and other forms of hate will not be tolerated.
• Do not make threats of violence or threaten to harm others.
• Any illegal actions (substance abuse, sexual acts, etc.) on a video call or audio call during the committee sessions will not be tolerated.
• Please use our communication platforms properly. For example, on our Discord, #general is for discussion on everyday things, but if you want to discuss anything specific that there is a channel for, please direct yourself to that channel instead of posting about it in #general. Let's try to avoid spam.
• Do not plagiarize or steal the ideas of others. Everything submitted under your name at Merge must be your original work.
