    I heard someone got hauled off stage for adding a hidden credits screen to the digital badge things they have, but I didn't really grok the underlying drama. Sounded like some lighthearted shenaniganry entirely in the spirit of the event, but event organizers were supposedly pissed? Hackercrackers are weirdge.
