gmm1tb​ asked that I draw a new winner. So congrats to our lucky alternative winner rileymat​!

Way to carpe diem!

One additional hint for Q5: Read very carefully today!

Hi Christopher! If you refresh you should be able to see the question and your answer. Just make sure you're looking at the simulated host and not adding in storage from any other resources, I hope that helps!

Hey Guys! These points have been awarded. They will show up as "undefined" on your profile.

Thanks for the details, Richard! + thegreateebzies​ for visibility.

Hello all, Points have been awarded for all the round 1 polls! You should be seeing points added automatically starting with Round 2.

Fill-in-the-blank questions act a little different than multiple choice- they give you multiple chances to get it right. Hint for this one is that the answer has a space in it, it's actually 2 words. I hope that helps!

Registration is now open! THWACKcamp 2016 Register before 6/30 for a chance to win a trip to THWACKcamp (Austin, TX) for you + 1!

Hey guys! Sorry about the bad links, sometimes when we schedule blogs ahead of time the date in the blog changes and causes an error. All links have been updated, but it looks like you already figured out the correct links.

Hey guys, sorry about the questions being locked early. You'll have until the end of the day tomorrow to complete the last week of the mission and still get your points.

HI Stuart! You'll first need to go here: http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/Orion/Login.aspx?sessionTimeout=yes & login. Then try clicking the hint link again. It should then take you to the correct view in the demo. Let me know if you're still experiencing any issues!

That's all you need to do! *Points will be awarded after the mission closes.

Hi all, Since everyone in the US is dealing with a case of the Mondays for the second time this week (Independence Day fell on a Wednesday this year) and there was a small typo, I'm giving the group who missed Q4 another chance. Q3 will stay as is, there were no issues with the question other than a few of you forgot to…

Hi Jeremy, do you remember which award you submitted for? I can't seem to find your entry.

Hi Chris, questions and winners are on the mission page: THWACK MONTHLY MISSION - AUGUST 2017

Funny enough, robots come up in our brainstorms every year but never seem to make the cut. I'll definitely put it on the list as a contender for next year!

Happy Monday all! The week 3 winner taking home the Darth Vader Lightsaber is dgsmith80​! Congrats!

Hi Peter, the SAM survey points have not been awarded yet, so the points you are seeing are from the Mission Accomplished survey.

Today's question is not case-sensitive, however you should pay attention to the number of spaces that are in the question.

Points have been awarded. Thanks to those of you who completed the survey!
