Hacking Behind the Firewall

Thanks to Freelancer.com & the sponsors behind the inaugural StartCon Capture the Flag competition. The Farming Simulator 2016 (CTF chapter of the Platypus community) teams took out 1st, 2nd, 3rd & (5th?) places. Or as we'd rather term it, we performed a successful DoS of prizes to other teams.
