The Schemaverse

A SQL space battle played out inside a PostgreSQL database. Global championships take place yearly at DEF CON.

Still looking for a new host for Schemaverse!

If you want to help support a weird educational SQL game, we’d love to hear from you.

[The Schemaverse @Schemaverse]

@dotmavriq Thanks for trying ❤️

[The Schemaverse @Schemaverse]

We just received notice this morning from our cloud provider that they're shutting down... yesterday ☠️

What's a good spot to host a weird pg database?

[The Schemaverse @Schemaverse]

@DanielW_Kiwi We’re still around. No luck on a new host yet though

[Craig Kerstiens @craigkerstiens]

If you want a Postgres just to explore, in additional to our guided @crunchydata tutorials we have a playground setup with a blank slate at https://t.co/VSdkLJuLcJ

Appending ?sql=http://pathtosql.sql will load a sql file as well.

@craigkerstiens How do we make a local running Schemaverse instance?

This would finally (14 years later) be a way for new players to have a training area where they won't get instantly crushed!

[The Schemaverse @Schemaverse]

What black magic is this?!

[Craig Kerstiens @craigkerstiens]

And here it is, come join us @crunchydata and learn some Postgres at our playground - https://t.co/KXUcxkIPeQ

[Abstrct @Abstr_ct]

And that’s saying a LOT but because #postgres is a crazy good time

[Abstrct @Abstr_ct]

A month ago I quit my job to go full time into @slowninjastudio. Tomorrow we release our first demo, complete with a working blockchain using @cosmos as the backend.

I'm not going to lie and say it's perfect or even fun yet, but beginning play testing is an exciting milestone

[Slow Ninja @slowninjastudio]

It’s hard to believe it’s already been 7 years since Slow Ninja started our first transaction-based, skill-based #crypto game and we are excited to share that we are working on our next one! Here’s a sneak peek of what we’re working on now! 💻 #WattsHappenin

[DEF CON @defcon]

Next year is a big anniversary for DEF CON, and we’re already at work planning how to make the big 3-0 memorable. Here’s to next year reuniting even more of us.

[The Schemaverse @Schemaverse]

What a round!

The championships finish up in 10 minutes, then we’ll start calculating the winner.

Big thanks to the 36 new players that gave Schemaverse a try this year. #DEFCON

[The Schemaverse @Schemaverse]

The champions have a substantial hold but some new players seem to have dirty tricks up their sleeves.
