A pretty solid CTF for beginners, but I think it's doing itself a disservice by trying to be an education platform and a ranked CTF at the same time. Both goals cannot be achieved at the same time - that's why usually these are separated into two different events. See for example the PicoCTF + PlaidCTF model (one educational, the other ranked; separate events made by the same team). Or Google Beginner's Quest + Google CTF (same deal).
Some arguments for the above:
- 60+ challenges in a ranked CTF is a serious case of an overkill (but works well in educational CTFs).
- A team limit is unenforceable (that's why ranked CTFs don't have team limits). It's fine to have it in an educational event, but not in a serious ranked competition.
- Also, doing 60+ challenges means not all of them get the love they deserve (which is a codename for: some challenges were untested, unpolished and guessy).
- OSINT is a popular category for beginners (low entry bar, etc), but at the same time OSINT/RECON was rejected years ago as a viable top-ranked CTF category due to its guessy and non-technical nature.
- Challenges where you get a flag for watching a live educational lecture aren't competitive in any sense. That's a good incentive in an educational CTF, but not in a ranked one.
- Some challenges were so simplified they were just confusing - case in point being the "fake-XSS" challenge, or the "srand(time()) + rand() XOR" challenge where for whatever reason the seed was stored in the output as well. These do simplify a problem and make it easy for a beginner to solve - they do have educational value! At the same time this doesn't make them good ranked challenges.
- And, most importantly!!1one: There were no PWNs ;)
Orgs: Have a chat between yourselves on what your goal is. Maybe do two CTFs as PPP / Google does :). But you can't achieve making a good educational event that is at the same time a good ranked CTF, there are just too many mutually excluding constrains.
