What is PacketWars?

PacketWars™ is a sport like nothing you have ever experienced! Games known as Battles pit individual players each other in a race against time to achieve predefined objectives, win prizes and attain FAME. Operating in the shadows of the Internet beyond the rule of TCP/IP and devoid of compassion, a secret war rages. Sometimes spilling over into the “real” world, digital battles are waged to advance the will of the combatants.

Michael at work during PacketWars2010

Michael from ERNW seems to be quite calm instead while he owns machine after machine.

The combatants are as varied as their skills and motivation. Every engagement is unique. It is our duty to chronicle these events. Join us as we open a portal to extreme hacking. Do you have what it takes to survive? This event takes place after the shared TROOPERS dinner on Wednesday evening. BYOL (Bring Your Own Laptop), if you want to join!
