So just to summarize:
Elite 'hacker' group claims to hate marketing guru/bullshit tactics, then proceeds to ply the hell out of everyone to spread their concept in a viral Twitter hashtag manner.
Granted, I totally just did it because that puzzle was way too easy, but c'mon now.
- ejames 16y agoIn that sense, at least, the event is being held by people who understand the hack mindset. I noticed that the puzzle was very easy, and that the "elite hackers" are in fact a recruitment agency, and therefore that the main purpose of the event is probably for a recruitment agency to put their recruiters in the middle of a bunch of hackers while eliminating competing recruiters who have the same goal. ... but I still did the puzzle. [edit] And everyone else is doing it too, and posting their solutions here! "Blazing guitarpocalypse"[1] indeed. I might attend the event, but that's mostly because I'm in Austin and feeling curious, and not because the website convinces me the event will have a high quality.
