A
roast is a form of humour in which a specific individual, a guest of honour, is subjected to jokes at their expense, intended to amuse the event's wider audience.
Such events are intended to honour a specific individual in a unique way.
In a first of it’s kind, we intend to roast popular programming languages!
Registration ends 15 July 2025.
Event Date: 15 September 2025.
Objective: "Defend your camp against other camps attack and attack other camps to roast them!"
A camp is a group of passionate programmers who are willing to defend their programming language to the death (or roast in this case)!
- A camp must have a minimum of 3 members to qualify for the roast.
- A camp may have a maximum of 8 members.
- Camps will be made based on your FIRST choice and if the camp is full, then on your SECOND choice.
The Roast - hosted by Gautam, the moderator.
- The moderator decides a Camp to start at random.
- The camp can attack any other camp they choose. They have 1-2 minutes to talk or show a 'specific' language syntax issue, a semantic issue, incorrect design or missing feature! (Pointing issues without a solid attack will be gifting an easy point to the defence. e.g. saying that a language is slow)
- The attacked camp has 1-2 minutes to defend the allegation.
- Moderator decides the winner and may involve people in the audience for this decision. The moderator decision is final. The point will not be split between the two camps! (Benefit of the doubt will go to the attack team)
- The camp that was attacked then gets a chance to attack another camp.
- A camp cannot attack the same camp more than twice in the entire duration of the roast.
- A camp cannot attack the same camp on consecutive chances.
- A camp cannot attack another camp with the same or similar argument used earlier by any another camp. Moderator has the final say in this. They can choose another line of attack or forfeit their chance!
- The camp with the most points wins!
What's in it for you?
