Meraki CTF Event - How to track prizes?

[_Pietro]

Hi everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone else has participated in a Meraki CTF event and won prizes? 

I came in top 3 and was supposed to be awarded a camera in addition to the free IOT sensor for participating but haven't received any further communication. How is it normally supposed to work?

not sure but if you want to check or want to communicate, reach out to community manager @AmyReyes

By CTF do you mean capture the flag and are you referring to this.

https://community.meraki.com/t5/CLUS-2023-Meraki-Lounge/Capture-the-Flag-at-Cisco-Live-US-2023/m-p/1...

It mentions prizes for top 5 on all in one board and top 2 in the architecture boards. What board did you place 3rd on?

That's correct, capture the flag. Not related to Live/Meraki Forum. Was invited by a Meraki Product Specialist to participate.

Hi @_Pietro, I'd recommend reaching out to @RicardoD for assistance with this, as it looks like he was one of the leaders of this event. I wasn't involved in the planning or execution for this event, so I'm not sure about how prizes are being awarded. 

@RicardoD - Is this something you could help with, or can you point Pietro to the right person please? Thanks!

Sorry, just to clarify again, it wasn't Cisco Live's CTF event. I found the leaderboard link, it was this:

Ah, thanks for clarifying! Apologies for the misunderstanding. I will ask around internally to see if I can find the right person to help you with this. Stay tuned! 

In the meantime, have you tried emailing support@ciscoctf.io for help with this? If not, that may be a good place to start. That is the dedicated email address for any questions related to the MV CTF. 😊

I emailed the person that sent the Webex invite but I will definitely try that. Thank you!

Hi @_Pietro, let's review internally with the people who ran that CTF Event "Meraki MV Capture the Flag - West" and we'll get back to you. Thanks!
