> Welcome to hackMaster
Welcome to hackMaster, a conference-wide scavenger hunt inspired by the spirit and creativity of the TV show Taskmaster. Designed to encourage collaboration, competition, and chaos, hackMaster challenges participants to complete a series of unique tasks throughout the event.
Players will work through a collection of challenges, submitting evidence of their completed tasks through a dedicated website. Submissions will be judged based on successful completion, creativity, and adherence to the rules of the game.
> Prizes
To reward the ingenuity and determination of participants, prizes will be awarded to the first three competitors to successfully complete the most challenges. In addition, a special runner-up prize will be presented for the most outstanding or creative submission. The aim of hackMaster is to have fun, be creative, and embrace a little friendly competition.
> General Rules

Failure to comply with these rules, the event's Code of Conduct, or the instructions of the judges may result in penalties, the rejection of submissions, or disqualification from the competition.
