Fun FB CTF fact #3: We use dynamic scoring. The more teams that correctly solve a problem, the less points that problem is worth. Sound exciting? We think so! Members, get this in your calendaaaars (https://t.co/9A3Sy2wgi8) #ctf #cantwait #infosec #hooray

[OU Competitive CompSec Society @ouccss]

Fun FB CTF fact #2: Participants can play individually or on a team. Playing on multiple teams is not allowed and will lead to disqualification. Sound exciting? We think so! Members, get this in your calendaaaars (https://t.co/9A3Sy2wgi8) #ctf #cantwait #infosec #ctfriends

[OU Competitive CompSec Society @ouccss]

Fun FB CTF fact #1: Blind brute force or automated vulnerability scanners are not required to solve any of the CTF challenges. Sound exciting? We think so! Members, get this in your calendaaaars (https://t.co/9A3Sy2eETy) #ctf #cantwait #infosec #noobtastic
