Some math
So if Google wants to spend twice as much as last year and award 800 projects, we can expect
145/6297 * 800 = 18
145/6297 = D
D * 408 = 9 // how many we would have gotten last year
D * 500 = 11.5 // how many we might get if Google sponsors 500 applicants
D * x = 20
x = 868 // number of applicants Google needs to sponsor for us to get all 20 we asked for.
Another var
It looked to me like there are more organizations this year, so if you still have last year's number somewhere, that might also make a difference.
True...
Mentoring orgs last year: 41
Mentoring orgs this year: 102
Don't ask me what that means though, I already have a headache from reading Robert's post. ;)
Oh..
And last year there were 8734 applications (according to Greg Stein), 410 of which were accepted.
