Heroes of NIXopolis, or How We Celebrated NIX Birthday
In the realm of our wildest dreams, a city known as NIXopolis came into existence – a place where advanced Technology and ancient Magic coexisted harmoniously. At the heart of this mystical city laid a remarkable artifact known as the Crystal Eye. It maintained a delicate equilibrium between these two forces.
However, all of a sudden, the wrathful Burningsteel Dragon stole this precious relic and shattered it into countless pieces. As a result, the world plunged into chaos, time froze, and in response, NIXopolis called upon its champions.
Developers, project managers, testers, and business analysts joined forces, forming seven mighty tribes over several weeks. As a result, these tribes were prepared to confront the formidable Dragon and embark on a heroic quest to restore balance.
On the second day of September, representatives from all seven tribes gathered in the heart of NIXopolis. The assembly consisted of merrymakers and daredevils, visionaries and adventurers, stalwarts and seekers of knowledge. Each tribe proudly showcased its unique abilities, while hundreds of spectators, raising their glasses high, cheered on their heroes.
And so the grand competition began! The heroes of NIXopolis embarked on a battle through challenging obstacle courses (watch the video on our social media platforms) They sought out powerful artifacts, moved projectiles, conquered the “Wrath Road,” explored tunnels in search of elusive light and magical treasures… Additionally, they even tamed the newest trains hurtling uncontrollably through the city’s metallic arteries! All for the sake of getting a chance to face the Dragon.
As the sun set below the horizon, the leaders of the seven formidable tribes set out on a test of Endurance and Strength. These intrepid captains embarked on a quest with mystical artifacts. And then confronted the menacing Burningsteel Dragon, piecing together the shattered Crystal Eye. In the face of this daunting task, the unwavering support of NIX Team transformed the seemingly invincible dragon into a conquerable foe!
After all, the equilibrium of magic and technology was restored, and now NIXopolis shines more brightly than the stars in the evening sky. The city resounded with the sounds of joy, laughter, and music, echoing even in its most remote corners.
No matter the choice of drinks at local bars—whether it was the “Mechanical Dragon,” “Ethereal Spritz,” “Mystic Mech,” or “Enchanted Havana”—each glass was raised in honor of the triumphant teams:
1st place — Shrek’s Tribe
2nd place — The Little Engine That Could
3rd place — SteamPumpkin
The celebrations for NIX’s 29th Birthday extended long into the night. Surely, these extraordinary moments may not be found within the pages of any magical or technical manual, but we safeguard them through photographs, on our desktops, and within our cherished memories.
Without a doubt, it was a day to remember, filled with vivid emotions and shared experiences. As we look forward, fresh discoveries, new challenges, and countless reasons to come together as the NIX family await us!
