Blue Team Con

Yes, we did see you during Blue Team Con 2026. Well played.

Had a blast helping @tib3rius.bsky.social host some game shows at #BlueTeamCon over the weekend! Such a fun experience with an incredible community. 💙

Wow. What an incredible 4 days. We'd like to extend a huge thank you to our presenters, trainers, volunteers, sponsors, those working behind the scenes, and most importantly - our attendees. Thanks for making Blue Team Con 2026 possible! We can't wait to see you again next year.
