Hacker Challenges, A Hacker Olympics for the Hak.5 Community

[shido]

DAMNIT im like REALLY late i know i get times im REALLY bored so what the hack im in. Ive already started lol. Ok i rebuild computers every day, i overclocked a friends computer, i dumped 10 computers of people i dont know lol its my lab so that was easy but i didnt use switchblade i used a different usb way so does that count?? ok i done some war driving about a week ago and picked up some realy unsecure waps lol talk about security breaching.... I dont suppose passing a comptia exam counts?? lol lectured a civilian even though it was really awkward, im busy on quadbooting so i got vista and ubuntu so far so i guess that gets me points. got peoples passwords but it was for a chatting service on mobile phones but its still social engineering does that count??

Ok so all in all how many points do i get??
