TECHGYANATHON
Organized by Information Technology Student Association
"I'm not antisocial. I'm selectively social. There's a difference."
— Wednesday Addams
The Investigation Begins
"I find social media to be a soulless void of meaningless validation."
Case Brief
Techgyanathon is not your typical technical festival. It's a three-day descent into the darkest corners of technology, competition, and controlled chaos. Think of it as Nevermore Academy, but instead of psychic visions, we have code that actually works. Sometimes.
The Timeline
"I would rather fail dramatically than succeed conventionally."
The Initiation
Raven's Rebuttal: Tech Debate
Nevermore: The Dark Reveal
Mind of Machines

The Mystery Board
"I do like stabbing. The social kind, where you stab people in the back."
How It Works
For visitors and non-competing participants
It is an activity based game, where you can scan QR code placed across the campus and complete tasks. After that you will receive points, which you can redeem for prizes
The Process
Detailed rules and regulations will be revealed upon registration.
Some mysteries should remain mysteries. Until they shouldn't.

"I'll only answer questions once. Pay attention."
A 3-day technical festival combining competitions, gaming tournaments, workshops, and a mysterious engagement system. Think of it as a tech conference designed by someone who finds regular tech conferences insufferably cheerful.
Anyone with a pulse and an interest in technology. Students, professionals, enthusiasts, and the mildly curious are all welcome. We don't discriminate based on skill level, only based on enthusiasm for mediocrity (which we discourage).
Visitors can explore the venue, participate in the QR mystery hunt, visit photo booths, and attend the Workshops. Participants get all visitor benefits PLUS eligibility to compete in events and win prizes. Choose based on your appetite for competition.
QR codes are hidden throughout the venue. Scan them to reveal riddles, puzzles, or tasks. Complete them to earn points. Exchange points at the Redemption Center for Wednesday-themed merchandise. It's like a treasure hunt, but with more existential dread.
A valid ID for registration verification. Your registered QR code (digital or printed). Laptop if participating in CTF. Team coordination devices. A tolerance for dark humor. Optional: Gothic attire for photo opportunities.
Yes. The Sponsor Pavilion includes food stalls. Various options available. We cannot guarantee the food will be as dark as our aesthetic, but we can guarantee it will be edible. Mostly.
Yes, but we strongly recommend pre-registration. On-site registration may have limited slots and longer queues. Plus, pre-registered participants get their cryptic QR passes in advance. Planning ahead is Wednesday-approved behavior.
We don't do refunds. Much like Wednesday's commitment to her projects, once you're in, you're in. However, registrations are transferable to another person with prior notification.
Individual registration. During registration, you'll specify your team name and team members. Each team member must register individually. We'll match you up based on the information provided.
