Right now, Dancer cannot participate in the challenge. The reason is since Adam uses Windows and Dancer doesn't install on Windows. It isn't that Dancer is not Windows-compatible, it's just that it uses HTTP::Server::Simple::PSGI [p3rl.org], which uses HTTP::Server::Simple [p3rl.org] which fails a test on Windows. Thus, Dancer cannot be installed on Windows (at least with StrawberryPerl, which is what Adam - and many others - use).

P.S. You have formatting errors, like visible HTML codes instead of formatting.

  I gave them a chance to fix that particular issue, and I even used the patched version of HTTP::Server::Simple they gave me.
  The installation failed for another completely different reason.
