Years ago I was the GSoC admin and I filled in all the forms and
had everything set to go. At the submission deadline I was up
rather late completing the last set of forms. I failed to notice
one button on the final form of the submission that I had to
click to complete the submission, and I thought everything was
done. I only found out the next day that the the application
hadn't been submitted.
Better luck next year.
