    What is one thing you've always wanted to do at DEFCON but have never gotten to do?

    With me, it is the friggin forum meet. I have always wanted to go to the meet and something always happens that ends up sidetracking me so I never end up going.

    This year is going to be my year though dammit!

    I've always wanted to check out coffee wars too, and never got around to it.

    Attend Defcon itself. :)
    A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.

      Toxic BBQ. It occurs at the same time that I am running the Vendor setup so I've never been able to go. Maybe someday.

          Yeah I'm gonna second this one. NEVER heard of a bad BBQ ;) But I definitely want to hit this up this year. !!

            Seen any part of Vegas that isn't on the way to or from the Riv... I plan to change that this year.

            If you mean at con, I'm with the find a ninja badge before they are all gone.

              I've only been to Defcon once, but I missed out on both the Toxic BBQ cause I got into town late, and the Forum Meetup because I wasn't really active. I feel like I really missed out in getting to those. Also Hacker Pimps, I was disappointed that people from Florida hosted a huge party and I didn't even know about it at the time :x

                Unlike those crazy men and women that work during Defcon (thanks goons!) so I can have fun, I pretty much do what I want when I want. Toxic BBQ, Defcon Shoot, SushiCon, and more. Obviously, there are things I don't get to do like get into all of the parties, but this does not stop me from having a great time.

                Every Defcon there is always contention for my time with many choices or options. What I would like to do at Defcon that I have never been able to do? Experience all of the things that I want to experience without forfeiting all other things I am not doing when doing just one thing I've decided to do. A time machine might help.

                      SushiCon. Some how I always end up missing it.

                        One thing I'd like to do this con is find a ninja badge, and of course grab one.

                          Thats funny, I just so happen to have packed a baby panda in my carry on. Here I thought it was superfluous.

                            Is that still going on? Heh.. have not made that one in a couple years now.

                            I wrote that one off YEARS ago.

                            How about a spotted owl shoot? We may be able to arrange that...

                              I went last year and 2 or 3 years before that. I asked GM1 about this last year for forum creation with respect to contests/events for Defcon 18, but no confirmation that it will happen, so the forum was not created.
