Hack Ack
Contest Information:
This lighthearted contest is focused on fun and spontaneity. Attendees will
learn of the guidelines the week before the conference. They will then have
until Tuesday evening to create something along the theme. Use of items
prepared prior to the competition is not allowed, unless these items are
available to everyone.
Everyone is encouraged to participate in this contest. Teams are equally good as
individuals. Even employees of Platte Canyon or
SumTotal Systems may participate, but they may only do so on an exhibition
basis (no awards or judging for them).
Judging is by audience applause and will occur immediately after all entries are
presented.
Hack Ack presentations will be interspersed with Karaoke/Rock Band performances
-- so showmanship may certainly rank high among the "judges."
How to Enter
Show up! There is no entry procedure. We will simply ask for anyone who wants
to present their Hack-Ack entry to sign up on a notepad at the beginning of the
Tuesday evening social.
Also, it will be up to each participant to arrange for a laptop to demo the
application on. We will have one or two machines if needed, but this should be
arranged ahead of time.
It's all about fun.

This was my first conference and I was very impressed with what I saw. It was an information overload, but I plan on being here next year and every year after that.

It was information overload--a good thing. I just wish I could be in two or more places at once.

The conference lived up to everything it was advertised to be and more. While the regular conference was great, I really enjoyed the pre conference. Those who did not attend the preconference really missed seeing you guys in action and what you have to share. I have already incorporated a couple of the things I learned at the conference.
