Linux Community Halloween Challenge
LuMinoR writes "In a cool contest with a Halloween theme, BitDefender is inviting Linux enthusiasts to crash test their upcoming antivirus solution for Linux e-mail servers. The most thorough beta tester will receive 1,000 German beers and a trip to BitDefender's corporate headquarters in Romania, where they will attend meetings with Count Dracula, the BitDefender development team and other local luminaries."
Though, the chance to meet Count Dracula though....
As a beautiful and large breasted female with a penchant for revealing bodices I really dont think its a good idea for me to meet Count Dracula, so I pass.
Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
Of course, in a post complaining about English, I misspelled a word.
It's Sunday morning. I'm tired. I still have to put on some face lubrication solution and use a beard removal solution (part of the facial grooming suite) and head to a lecture at an Ashkenazi Hebrew Religious Solution Center. Meanwhile, others will be on their way to a personal salvation solution center, where they will likely sing from a robust suite of hymns. Unless they're Missouri Synod Lutherans, where they'll have low-frequency dirge solutions.
Just give me the $8k for two weeks testing and I guarantee that I will find so many problems that you'll be busy for months.
... I do all the work and someone else gets paid... right. I imagine everyone else with actual skill is thinking the same thing.
Otherwise, why would I bother participating in this just for the possibility of being paid?
The ratio of people to cake is too big
Free ... free as in beta testers.
through extrapolation....one can assume that "most prolific" equates to "finds the most bugs"
Almost, but not quite. Quoting from the contest FAQ:
Q. The rules weren't quite clear. What are we supposed to do in order to win?
A. Send bug reports that have not been sent by someone else. They will be rated and a score from 1 to 3 will be announced by the judges in 24h max from the bug's arrival. At the end, the person with the most points wins.
