Any good?
are these events any good? I'm not sure what the atmosphere would be like. What would you compare it too?
just to help me get a handle on it...

I would compare it too...
... one of those 3 day LAN parties where people play war games to the virtual and probably often physical death. If your going, expect a lot of wacom tablets round the head and ninja disc cd's.
I haven't been so all the above could be completely wrong but looking on their website for a few minutes it is not too dissimilar from what I imagined:
"eight designers will go head to head in series of advancing 15-minute elimination rounds until one of those heads emerges with its rightful crown."
Might be good fun as a spectator, I don't think I have the speed skillz to win. Good luck to all those entering.
