Friday Fun: What are your favorite moments from Team'24?

[Summer Hogan]

Happy Friday Everyone, 

Keeping on the subject of Team '24 and to compliment the great #TBT post from @Kristján Geir Mathiesen What are your "favorite" announcements from Team'24?, let's talk about what your favorite moments, outside of the announcements that were made, were at Team '24?

My favorite moment by far was meeting so many great people! My second favorite was the Ted Lasso Keynote and my third favorite was the founders keynote.  

So, whether you attended the event virtually (and if you haven't yet, check it out) or in person, share what your favorite moments were. 

Have a great day and weekend!

That's easy.  Certification Day.  Monday, pre-conference, we had 300 people come and take an Atlassian certification test.  You know how being around customers can motivate you?  You also know how just that one customer that's pissed about everything can take your buzz down a bit?  I worked the SWAG table for those that passed their certification.  They came to the table to get a shirt and hat that declared they were certified and passed their test during Team '24.  You have no idea how happy those people were.  I could have told them their dog died, and it wouldn't have affected them.  They were so happy just for passing, and then I got to give them a shirt and hat.  Now, they are really happy.  That was the best part for me.

That's so awesome @Jay Jarman! You sharing your story actually made me smile too!

I really enjoyed the Community Leader workshop day. It was so great to meet other Community Leaders in person and exchange ideas!

[Summer Hogan]

Yes, that was a great day @Lacy Saute and it was great to meet you!

@Jay Jarman ~ that's awesome!  I would have been at that table (I think!), had I attended the conference!  😥 Nothing better than achieving a new personal / professional milestone!  Great job to all who obtained certification! 👏🏻

Thanks @Laurie Sciutti Thanks for contributing your use case for Trello re: vacation and holiday party planning :-)

BASH!  I had a blast seeing everyone in their neon :)

I really have a hard time boiling it down to one or two moments. I agree with you @Summer Hogan, getting together with the Community Leader's and Community Managers is exactly why I came. And the Ted Lasso keynote was 👌. 

I'd have to say it was getting/giving a hug to my brother from India, @Sajit Nair _Trundl_. We spend so much time on Zoom, Bevy and other telecommunication tools throughout the year I feel like we are always together - but really never are. You can send emojis over the internet, but there is no replacement for a hug, handshake, fist-bump or high-five.

[Summer Hogan]

100% agree @Andy Gladstone! I can't tell you how many people I met in that 3 days and how much it meant to me to meet you and everyone else! It was so fulfilling! I gave/received more hugs during that 3 days than I have in years!

The best part for me was catching up with everyone.

I really enjoyed Bash this year and just hanging out with old and new friends and community leaders! I also really liked hearing from Dr. Fei-Fei Li.

Hi everyone

Sorry to be repetitive but for me the best moment was: "ROVO", I loved the presentation and what it promises to do, I'm looking forward to trying it, I also love the name

[Summer Hogan]

I agree, the name is pretty cool @Vronik 

[Brant Schroeder]

Connecting with others.  There are several individuals that I can count on seeing at Team and it is always fun to see them in person and catch up.  I also enjoy presenting and was able to do that this year.

Idk, my team didn't take me there 😿🎻
