Tickets for the next Call Center Village (at #HTH2025 ) are at the printer!

The tickets are a way to kick-off the first challenge and aren't otherwise needed to attend.

> You do need to be an HTH 2025 attendee. Do you have your ticket yet?

We also got the new scarlet/gray themed lanyards, so now we're just waiting on the challenge "medals" (...they are acrylic)

We're having a party at DEF CON 33! We're calling it PARTY-LINE. More details to come.

In the meantime, we are looking for sponsors to help provide drink-tickets, stickers, and free-swag to party attendees.

Please reach out to sponsorships@callcentervillage.com for more info.

Here's some examples of the dashboard (v0.0.1) that we made. I'm cleaning it up and expect to MIT publish it soon.

I got some advice to check out CTFd from DC614 so I'm going to see if I can "build my vision" using that ahead of the next run.

We had our first "real-world" village at NAEO conference this past week. I think it went well for the most part, despite the conference not being a very technical one.

I also made some mistakes on marketing the event (so that people were even aware of it) but we still had a solid go.

I gave the "post-mortem" at DC614 and they encouraged me to continue on. I'm aiming for #HTH in June since it's local and I have all the equipment.

Networking is not my forte, so wish me luck in their discord.

I did put in a Call for Villages for #DC33 at the last second...but I'm not expecting that one.
