The semifinal round is what determines whether, the teams make Nationals. Although, the images have various predetermined rankings, all were super hard, only Ubuntu was hard, we can gain a more accurate understanding of the image difficulty by looking at the public scores. Fedora in this case was Extremely hard, as 99% of teams got less than 10 points on it. Ubuntu although now only marked hard, was harder than the State Round Ubuntu which was marked superhard. Windows and Windows Server were relatively easier and was where all the points were got. The Boeing Challenge were points that team’s must obtain, the web challenge had one super hard part and a relatively easier part. The Cisco Networking Quiz was easy, but the packet tracer was super hard.
State Round competition is at a premium level. Windows 10 images is medium. Windows Server 2019 image is hard. Ubuntu 20 is super hard. Team 15-1766 Titanturtles scored 271 total score, harvested Oregon first place champion in High School Open Division Platinum Tier and ranked #17 out of 630 High School Open Division Platinum Tier teams all over the world.
