The Winners

All the winners from this and past editions of this activity can be found in the Hall of Fame

Master of the Palantír

This badge is awarded to those who guessed the full name of an Ubuntu release.

You have mastered the secret art of divination and you probably already know the names of the next ten Ubuntu releases; impressive!

Unfortunately, we have no “Master of the Palantír” winners this time. But don’t give up, young soothsayers! With enough foresight, your day will come.

Part-time Oracle

This badge is awarded to those whose guess included half the name of an Ubuntu release.

You are a promising oracle but a cloud obscured the full name from your view. Keep at it, you have potential!

@halogen2 - Radial Raccoon
@paelzer - Resolute Rottweiler

Relaxed Prophet

This badge is awarded to those who guessed the release name or parts of it correctly but not as the first one making that guess.

When it comes to future-telling, nobody beats you. Your crystal ball is shiny, and you have impressive skills. However, you like to take your time and your foretelling is not the fastest in town.

@athos-ribeiro - Rusty Raccoon
@bboisseau - Rocket Raccoon
@gvebi - Radiant Raccoon
@aarpon - Rusty Raccoon

Artful Seer

This badge is awarded for a bold, creative, or hilarious guess of an Ubuntu release name.

Your crystal ball pulled a prank on you, and you should probably replace it… Or maybe not? This was an entertaining guess worthy of a prize!

@renanrodrigo for suggesting Renan Rodrigo as the new release name!

Arbiter of truth

This badge is awarded to the person who reveals the release name to the orange world of Ubuntu.

You don’t need divination skills to find the truth. You are the source of truth!
