it's been so much better because I've had so much more help and it if it wasn't for all my team this just wouldn't have been as great for the kids so a huge thank you to them and we have a black badge winner are we announcing it okay all right because we had an adult black badge and it went to a young gentleman yesterday but ID is he here I don't think he's here today no okay he had to go he had other stuff to do his name is Elijah Garn and he I believe sat for 45 yeah four and a half hours pounding away on this stuff and really just made a tremendous effort and it

solved I think all of the flags except maybe one or maybe he finished the last one after I walked out just a tremendous of no he did okay yep he got the last one and Andrew Shue made again did the kids crypto which was fantastic and phenomenal and he actually huge kudos to him ran at remote this year with the help of Russ Mosley who is the father of our keynote who is amazing miss Mantha who spoke and did a wonderful job so crypt kids is growing by leaps and bounds and if you haven't noticed or paid attention every year the kids run a little more themselves and if you've noticed my keynotes have all been kids

so I'm really trying to have the kids teach the kids speak to the kids and learn from the kids and really turn it into teaching them how to run their own events so we're slowly moving in that direction I think that's all I have for kids [Applause] [Music] speaking of crypto for a crypto contest defunct car salesman was the team that won and that was from the book if any of you saw the book floating around that was the book so I don't know are they here so I wanted to say a little something for those who haven't played the contest when I got here Friday morning we formed a great team and they managed to solve it right after lunch

today I also want to do a little plot I was very impressed with Jojo she hung in there she is not in cyber security if I remember correctly she actually came up here for a promise job that fell through and she's selling cars now she's working on her cyber security degree she's amazing please if anyone's looking to hire someone new in the field or needs someone that's ready and raring and enthusiastic and wants to learn come talk to this just so hard and she's so super super smart as all of them I do need to say that this year's final challenges a little interesting I let my 15 year old daughter write it and they

will all tell you it was not easy and it's not anything they've ever seen before hopefully we don't ever have to say it again but it was I think it was just the right amount of challenging that it made you work for it right so I'm a huge round of applause to the defunct car salesman congratulations [Applause] you do that sabi can you please come on up wasabi is gonna tell you about the winners for the new RF HS or Wireless village so Rick had to drive to a job so I was left unattended so I am wasabi with the RF hacker sanctuary every year we put on an awesome wireless captured a flag we have lots of teams that come in

and try their metal and sometimes they challenge us as much as we challenge them this year blunderbuss came out on top and beat the majestic 12 who has been pretty steady at coming in and blowing things out of the water and then third place was the emoji team so things were tight until the very end our scoreboard goes black at 30 minutes till so nobody knows what's going on and then we do the king of the hill points while they don't know so they actually see a final tally from job normal CTF and then the king of the hill points kick in so when the page refreshes either you're really happy or you're really sad

because you could have just went from first place to third so after all that we got some blunderbusses here I recognize some some beards and some faces all right cool beans come on up [Applause] the good job this year thank you gentlemen I believe the last one is the IOT first first place went to meet bunny second is knop researcher and third is blood ninja would meet bunny please come forward and get his black badge [Applause] [Music]

so I hope everybody had fun with that and the board games were going strong I noticed a table of our very first group of kids that were at the very first milk and cookies party busy playing a board game so that was fun to see sponsors we couldn't do this without the sponsors and you guys as attendees so one more time where I'm enough through the sponsors list letters are engaged the audience sponsors are above and beyond sponsors continued overtime hardcore supporters and of course everybody else that helps us with everything we do within the event over the weekend final attendance are there are there any guesses as to I ran it out no nope 20:43
