My overscheduled client load won’t let me play this month, but will the correct answers and explanations be posted in the thread after the winner is announced?

Hi @ChrisR, @SeanMcC, @imp_dev, @Mineral-CRΒ @dartacus, @KeviSunshine,Β @Khard,Β @Wei Tan, @ChrisTough!

I was just going through the Developer Group looking at some of the most recently active members, and I wanted to tag you all in case you haven’t seen this yet!

Β 

I’ve really appreciated all of your engagement in the group lately, and I’d love to see one of you take home the great prizes we lined up for this event! Just to add to what I wrote above, we will be rewarding the prizes to the most accurate answer, so if you don’t feel like you have too much time to spend on this, throw in a quick guess! (@DavidSandelΒ - thought you might want to hear that too, just in case it wasn’t clear in my earlier message 😁).

Β 

The challenge is meant to be a fun way to give back to the group, while also offering someΒ education about what is possible with our APIs.Β 

Β 

Looking forward to hearing what you all think, and thanks again for being valuable members of our Community!

@Brian TurcotteΒ thanks for the inclusion in this. Unfortunately I’m stacked with client work at the moment so won’t be able to join in. Seems like fun and keen to follow along + learn.

Thanks again,

Chris
