Why It Mattered

It fills the ROOTCON pandemic-year gap with a source-backed identity artifact while avoiding unsupported claims about electronics, PCB design, firmware, or attendee-wide hardware distribution.

Hardware

The source-backed artifact is the Survival Kit conference badge, lanyard, and sticker set described in the official guide. This pass did not recover a physical badge photo, material specification, electronic badge claim, PCB, controller, display, battery, firmware, production count, or shipping manifest.

Software & Apps

No badge firmware, badge app, puzzle software, or hardware challenge source is claimed. The guide separately documents ROOTCON Discord conference access and a digital certificate of attendance by request, which are modeled as event-access artifacts rather than onboard badge software.

Lore

ROOTCON described the 2020 edition as Recovery Mode because COVID-19 restrictions moved the full event online for the first time in the conference's history. The paid bundle preserved a physical conference-badge/lanyard/sticker ritual even while talks and access moved to Discord.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

electronic badge not proven note

The official guide proves a paid-attendee Survival Kit with conference badge, lanyard, and sticker set, but does not prove an electronic badge, PCB, firmware, components, production run, shipped count, or challenge behavior.

The dossier preserves the pandemic-era badge/lanyard artifact without upgrading it into unsupported electronics.

Confidence: official guide but intentionally narrow
Status: classified as identity artifact
Timeframe: 2020 Recovery Mode pass
Source note: RC14 Quick Guide.

missing rights-cleared image note

No local ROOTCON 14 badge image has been added because the official guide and media-server context do not provide a specific reusable badge photo or official raster render with complete source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.

The record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying guide imagery, event artwork, screenshots, social-media images, or generated artwork.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy, ROOTCON 14 Recovery Mode media directory, and RC14 Quick Guide.

virtual-edition scope note

ROOTCON 14 was a Recovery Mode virtual event because COVID-19 restrictions prevented mass gatherings, with conference access delivered through ROOTCON Discord.

The record should be read as a virtual-edition attendee-kit artifact, not an on-site conference credential used at a physical venue.

Confidence: official guide
Status: documented
Timeframe: October 9-10, 2020
Source note: RC14 Quick Guide.
