Pre-Con, forum only, Short Story Creative Writing Contest will return as long as permission is received, for prizes, from DEF CON staff. No resources required, only a short time slot at Contest closing ceremonies and, of course, badges for winners and contest organizer. :D

I would LOVE to be back again next year... a lot of my equipment gets shot up and always has to be rebuilt to some extent. So I would have to bring that equipment with me on the plane or ship it ahead of time

i and whomever else supports the running of the DEFCON Shoot with me next year will work more closely with you in the run-up to DC 23... we will ensure that all the things you think you need will be sourced and available out there when you arrive, and that they'll be more bullet resistant as well as easily stowed away.

this course will become a lot more portable and easier on you, logistically.

What would the world be like without the Scavenger Hunt?! You know we're coming back.

I know I can't wait. I'll be sure to have my part in next year's scavenger hunt ready in time.

We have too much fun not to bring Crash and Compile back for DEF CON 23. We already have ideas in place to make it even better.

The Packet Hacking Village will be back!

DEFCON Shoot is also going to be back, along with quite possibly the SiscoCoon's Hacker War Games run & gun competition.

I would LOVE to be back again next year, but I'm unsure at this point since I'm actually about to make the move to FL from NV. Living is NV makes it much cheaper to setup the contest. I could easily load all my equipment and tools in my truck and drive there in 8 hrs. But 3K miles each way will be much harder. Thanks to Deviant a lot of my equipment has been stored in NV. But at the contest goes using real guns, a lot of my equipment gets shot up and always has to be rebuilt to some extent. So I would have to bring that equipment with me on the plane or ship it ahead of time.

I am hoping to be back in the area again before DC23, it is unclear at this time. Being that most of the equipment is still in NV I think if there is a Local there in NV that is willing to work with me that there would be a very good chance to be back again for DC23. If anyone is willing to help please PM me here on the DefCon Forums.

Thanks for everyone that ran the course and for the support of those that helped get the prizes and other behind the scenes things come together. It wouldn't have been the same without you.

The Lockpick Village will return again, for sure.

DEFCON Shoot is also going to be back, along with quite possibly the SiscoCoon's Hacker War Games run & gun competition.

I plan on running Black Bag again in some form or another. If the CnE space is the Bally's Events center and i can get a decent room in the North tower, i might finally realize the dream of running the Black Bag in a DEFCON hotel room like we do at other conferences.
