AdWars 2008

Thursday night - Muehlebach Suite at the Boulevard Brewery in Kansas City. Fourteen teams comprised of members of different Kansas City area advertising agencies competed for the Silver Cup, the grand prize of AdWars.

PlattForm had a team of nine competitors for the 2008 AdWars competition. I was one of the few who competed with the team. We came in the top 10 overall, and that was a great showing compared to last year. The 2007 PlattForm team came in second to last. So that is some great improvement this year.

There were six rounds of Advertising-related trivia questions. I can proudly say that I knew a variety of the answers ranging from what the action is of a "twitter" and how many times Google changed their algorithm in a given time frame!

Laci wrote a great article about AdWars on the PlattForm blog, so you should definitely check that out as well.

All in all it was a great time and I definitely look forward to next year! Plus, what beats fresh and free Boulevard beer and free food. Heaven in Kansas City, I tell ya!
