Stump The Chump and Win a Prize!

Got a tough problem with your Solr or Lucene application? Facing challenges that you’d like some advice on? Looking for better approaches to an Solr issue you already solved? Want to win a prizes?

Email a description of your problem to stump@lucene-eurocon.org and see if you can Stump The Chump (that would be me). Prizes will be awarded at the discretion of our panel, based on their combined (subjective) opinions about which questions they think stumped me the most:

  • 1st Prize: $100 Amazon gift certificate
  • 2nd Prize: $50 Amazon gift certificate
  • 3rd Prize: $25 Amazon gift certificate

Even if you’ve already solved an interesting problem yourself: submit it to see if I can come up with a solution on the spot. Even if you can’t make it to the conference: submit your question anyway and you can watch me squirm later when we post video of the session on online.
