Ahh, OK folks, we're starting to get a picture of that other 0.56%

I have a couple entries:

Extreme Network Administration
events include:
  • The speed crimp: How fast can you terminate CAT5 cable?
  • The extreme update: How quickly can you propagate authoritative DNS server changes in your WHOIS record to the root TLD servers?
  • Hot-swap hardware upgrades: Do you have the guts to replace a switch while the president of the company is reading his email?
Extreme CIO [chief information officer]
including:
  • The Denial of Service: Do you have the guts to tell the CEO that budgets cuts will work out to cuts in services?
  • The ERP vault: Can you implement an enterprise payroll/human resources/accounting system in less time than it takes the entire workforce of the company (including you) to turn over? (Bonus points for style if a majority of the turnover is attributable to the software implementation)
  • License lingo: prizes given for software licenses with the fewest number of intelligible sentences; bonus points if the product being licensed doesn't do anything useful in the first place
