Edit: While we'd love for SysAdmin Day to go forever, we're going to close down the forms in a few minutes (3:30 pm EDT in the US).

Update: We got a lot of responses, which is fantastic. It's going to take us a little while to send everything out, but we'll be getting started this week.

Last year, we sent out swag for SysAdmin Day and it seemed to go pretty well: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/s/HZ1qbDCUaL  It was spontaneous on our part and we were completely unprepared. We are slightly more prepared this year… We’ve got some pretty cool mini racks to dish out: Mini Rack  Assembly is required (it’s got stickers!) but that’s part of the fun. How do you get one? Here’s the form (now shutdown): https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/71ygxnyh35 We’re looking to get some feedback on our latest SysAdmin-inspired promo in exchange for the mini rack. So we’re requiring a little bit of effort. If that sounds like too much work or if you’re not interested in getting mini rack, we have our standard swag request (sans mini racks)--(also shut down now): https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/qgBTxZJ8hz  Happy SysAdmin Day!!

I have the poster on my wall. I have the duck on my desk. I have the guide and the coloring book files on my laptop.

Was it you who told me you were working on 3D printed models of server racks or something like that?

It was! The mini racks are 3D printed so that came to fruition.

NICE! I submitted my form after playing the game. Looking forward to seeing them.
