Technical Event

Code Auction 2.0

Code Auction 2.0 is a dynamic, strategy-infused technical event where logic meets adrenaline. Teams participate in a live auction to bid on buggy code snippets and limited debugging tools. Once the gavel drops, the real challenge begins – fixing the code under strict time limits to earn maximum points.

It's a high-stakes blend of auction tactics, code analysis, and pressure-driven problem solving. Make smart investments, identify valuable snippets, and strike the perfect balance between risk and reward to dominate the leaderboard.
