Hello, world.

I've been looking since the end of the last con, but I cannot seem to find any information regarding who is taking over for LegitBS. I ask because my team is planning to make a serious effort to qualify for the CTF this year and are looking for info regarding pre-qualifiers (mainly), format, etc so that we can prepare accordingly.

Thanks,

shombo

At closing ceremonies, Dark Tangent mentioned legitBS was retiring from running CTF, and something would be announced about who would take it over, but I do not recall any announcement being made since then.

There was a call for organizers for CTF announced on the main site: https://www.defcon.org/html/links/dc-ctf-cfo.html

I've asked your question on twitter: https://twitter.com/TCMBC/status/911469000126689280

We should have an announcement out on Monday or Tuesday, just editing it now and testing the links, layout.

Thanks for the replies.

I haven't seen anything yet, but I'm glad to know that this isn't due to me missing details. I'll keep checking back.

EDIT: After having read the call for organizers, I see that the deadline for the call for organizers submissions is January 1, 2018. I'm assuming we will have more answers after that :)
