Thanks to the organizers and everyone who attended!
9th out of 209 teams. Solo.
An incredible result and great to hear the no-LLM rule made the CTF feel like old-school CTFing again.
Huge credit to the @sk8boardingdog crew for building such a strong competition this year.
I played skateboarding dog CTF 2026 alone and placed 9th out of 209 teams! I'm so glad a no-LLM rule was enforced; it's the closest I've last felt to playing CTFs in the pre-LLM era. Thanks to @sk8boardingdog and @BSidesCbr for holding this great event!
