Start with your name. Easy huh? \ud83d\ude43<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nilo<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell us about your team in three words.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We take photos<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your team were a WordPress plugin, what would it do? \ud83e\udd14<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We would be the coolest media library addon ever<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the most unexpected skill you\u2019ve used while organising WCEU? \ud83c\udfc4<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heavy machinery handling (although they didn’t allow me to drive it myself)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Describe your WCEU experience so far using only emojis. Add as many as you want.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf89\ud83d\ude2c\ud83d\ude31\ud83d\ude02\ud83e\udec2\ud83d\udc83\ud83d\udcf8\ud83c\udf7a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the funniest or most memorable moment you\u2019ve had with your team?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leading Matt through a supposedly empty side corridor only to find a hundred volunteers waiting to go on stage. “Hey guys, say hello to Matt!!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If WCEU were a music festival, what would be your team’s anthem? \ud83e\ude87<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Queen – Don’t stop me now<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s one thing people don\u2019t realise about your team\u2019s work behind the scenes? \ud83e\ude81<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photo volunteers carry their own equipment, which is both expensive, heavy and fragile. If you see a photographer running, please make some space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the spirit of open-source collaboration, what\u2019s the best lesson WCEU has taught you about teamwork?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

WordCamps are GPL. You learn form others, make your mistakes and you pass on what works for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which famous fictional character would make the best addition to your team, and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Strange. Having magical portals could save us soooo many steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Convince someone in 10 words or less why they should join WCEU next year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
