Defcon 20 CTF - CTF Inside

Well, that was hell of a game.

Lollers would have bet that DDTEK would screw this up but guess what... After herding all year long, they invoked their sheep for rescue to save their bad ass' smelly screwing power reputation.

They ruled it! Special Kudos for running a game of 20 teams x 8 individuals so smoothly. This was a big "first time ever" for the "Capture the Flag" exercise. Not to tell that there wasn't some fuck up but DDTEK were back with good binaries quality, much harder and pretty well thought compared to last year. Almost no problem all game long except the traditional "We R in Late..."

Binjitsu III, game scoring

By the way, at the beginning of the CTF, we were given the following sheets explaining the CTF and game scoring:

Defcon 19 CTF - CTF Inside

ddtek ran their third contest since they took over the CTF's organization: "Binjitsu III" (or as the scoreboard had it "binjutsu" ;)

This edition was located for the first time at the Rio and ddtek teased us with an authentication passphrase related to the casino switch.

Organizing such an event represents a heavy workload as there are in fact two separate contests to run: the quals - online - and the CTF itself - in Vegas. Although not perfect in all aspects, ddtek is doing quite a good job at making this happen. Thanks to them.
