Foundation Scavenger Hunt:
Inspired by the hidden knowledge in the Foundation novels, attendees searched for QR codes representing "missing foundation vessels." Each code led to a password-protected link, with passwords revealed by solving ciphers found on badges, track slides, and locations around the venue. The first person to unlock all the codes won a special swag bundle.
