Video games’ fantasy worlds are, inherently, a little geeky. With intricate fanciful or photo-realistic settings, their creation takes a certain attention to detail that comes from the geek in all of us. KIXEYE’s Portland office, compromised of our Customer Advocacy department, channeled their inner geek to sponsor and participate in Portland Geek Council’s Geek Olympathon. Filled with geek-tivities, KIXEYE contributed some of its own personality by offering two events of its own: a ‘Build Your Own Guardian’ from TOME station and a VEGA Conflict ‘Base Crushing Challenge’.
A big congratulations goes out to KIXEYE’s three fantastically dressed teams who all finished in the top four. Customer Service Agent Katie Evans’ (pictured above as The Scarlet Witch) team, the Dames of Future Past, finished first!
At KIXEYE, everyone is a geek in their own way. A customer service agent may know more than anyone else about Star Trek’s different races, while an accountant could talk your ear off about how modern war weapons should behave in-game. The Geek Olympathon was a chance for the Portland office to show off exactly what they know. With thirty different challenges all around Portland and a record number of teams participating, it was the most successful Geek Olympathon yet. KIXEYE is proud to have been a sponsor and looks forward to keeping its winning streak going next year!
