Get Ready! The Winter Scripting Games 2014 are starting very soon !! The Event 1 is scheduled to start this week-end (Jan 19th 2014)! The Games are an amazing opportunity to learn more about PowerShell. This is the kind of thing you don’t want to miss !!!

Last year I jumped in for the first time in the 2013 edition and this was really a lot of fun !!! It gave me a huge boost to my PowerShell Skills and so much more confidence in my scripting style !!! You can refer to my old blog posts for each Scripting Games 2013 events were I tried to analyze each of my solutions.

Back at the beginning of December I was actually offered by+Mike Robbins to Coach the teams, but since I had so much fun playing at the last games I decided to play again this year, couldn’t resist!!

For the 2014 Edition however, the formula of the Scripting Games is a bit different:

    * Teams: This edition of the Scripting Games is a team work event ! No more Solo mode, participants have to create or join a team (from 2 to a maximum of 6 team members), * Coaches: A list of experts will give advices/critics on the posted script via comments or blog posts. * Judges: A team of MVPs and Well-known PowerShell Guru will scores each of the scripts.
Here is my setup for the scripting games :-) (Coffee is a huge friend)!
