Hi 0x00ers!

On this week of grinding away to further improve our skills and flex our hacking muscles, we will all be working on this box.

Hopefully, as the weeks go on, we will all progress and learn new things as a group and in several years of working and training, we’ll be tackling the very hard boxes with ease.

Although slightly off topic, I want to let you know that I think it’s pretty cool how you handle this forum in general but also like in this case. The way you write it sounds like rather a team leader (who approaches his team on eye-level) than some anonymous forum admin. Pretty nice! You’re doing a very good job, @pry0cc

Forum daddy… :smile:

Ahaha, thank you very much @Shellsquid.

I must say that being a Forum Daddy is not something that I have had referred to me previously, but I like it :smiley:
