The 5 Days of ShmooCon Tickets

Tis the time of the year, when boys and girls gather around their computers, waiting for the clock to strike 12. They furiously press F5, Apple-R, and BOTNET_ACTIVATE.exe in hopes of having the quickest fingers and the lowest ping to get one of a few golden tickets. But alas, many are not quick enough or are forgetful of such a holiday. It’s a holiday of dedication, sacrafice, and passion. It’s ShmooCon Ticket Season!

But alas, for those who overslept their alarms, couldn’t connect on GoGo, or “had to work”, Urbane has a holiday gift for you!

Five Days. Five Challenges. Five ShmooCon Tickets.

The Rules

As Urbane is sponsoring ShmooCon, we have a few extra tickets. Winning one is easy…..ish.
