TechDays and the Community Heroes

  • Article

The UG community in Belgium are organizing a community game during the TechDays, underneath you find the info I received from the community game lead, take a look at it and if you want to win an Xbox 360 then you should definitely join this game.

This year the event is all about IT Heroes “the people that make it work”, and yes that’s you and me. Microsoft fills this event with load of technical sessions about all the latest and the greatest, but IT-Talks wanted to take it one step further so we sat down, had a good hard think and came up with “The community game” and united the communities. Together with RIS for the technical expertise we created a simple game, open to all attendees of the Heroes Happen Here event. The game is all about meeting Heroes with equal interests that you might otherwise never meet. It’s a simple 3 step game, but don’t forget you must attend the conference to take part:

1. If you are attending the conference head down to:https://www.communitygame.be and subscribe. The system will ask for your email, interests and you need to upload a picture of yourself.

2. On 11 March 16h subscription will end and the clock starts ticking. Everybody that entered the game will be randomized towards their interests and you will get an email with the pictures of the people in your Hero team and a magic number. Print the sheet and take it with you to the conference.

3. During the event, find your 3 peers and unite your Hero team. Head down to the game booths, fill in all the magic numbers. If all the numbers match, the system will take a picture of you Hero team, your clock stops and you’ll be placed on the Heroes hall of fame. If you’re the first team to make it back you’ll each win an XboX but don’t worry there are even more great prices waiting for you.

Enjoy!
