Issue dossier
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
The compendium preserves the community hardware lineage without confusing it with the official DEF CON 25 rubber/plastic identity badge.
Evidence
Primary log documenting BLE terminal behavior through the AND!XOR Android app, Nordic nRF Toolbox compatibility, maintenance mode, scanning, connection, script buttons, and app-permission notes.
Secondary coverage corroborating the DC25 badge as a hackable BLE DEF CON 25 indie badge and pointing to the Hackaday.io project.
Primary log documenting the microSD card, Bring Your Own Bling workflow, RAW 16-bit 565 asset format, ffmpeg conversion command, and custom bling folder behavior.
Primary log describing the badge-to-badge BOTNET game, activation, badge-net repeating behavior, airplane-mode opt-out, services, firewall rules, exploits, XP, and points.
Hackaday.io file archive advertised by the project as VRML, SVG, and DXF models for badge accessories and paper/PLA mockups; not treated as full Gerber source.
Primary retrospective log for team expansion, design goals, BMD-300 selection, display/LED/regulator production context, S132 firmware base, activation code, bling, games, production quantities, and source-release caveats.
Project-owner Hackaday.io source for DEF CON 25 context, BMD-300/nRF52 hardware specs, TFT, LEDs, sensors, microSD, badge functions, team list, files, and project status.
Primary log documenting badge scripting, supported commands, graphics drawing APIs, GPIO read/write commands, button state commands, and examples.
Source trail
Primary project-owner source for hardware specs, DEF CON 25 dates/location, badge functions, team roster, project files, and the open hackable-badge framing.
Primary BLE/app source for AND!XOR Android terminal behavior, Nordic nRF Toolbox compatibility, maintenance mode, and BLE permission caveats.
Primary game-design source for the badge-only wireless BOTNET mechanic, player services, firewall/exploit rules, badge-net behavior, activation, and opt-out details.
Primary retrospective source for BMD-300/nRF52 choice, display, WS2812B LEDs, production quantities, regulator substitution, S132 firmware base, activation, games, app, and source-release caveats.
Secondary technical source corroborating the BLE indie-badge framing and Hackaday.io project evidence.
