Things heated up when organizers also
jumped in, to make the ultimate flying

P.S. It would be better to skip details of

A weary looking Osama,
spokesperson Science Society and the
man behind the event, when asked
about the event later on,
on commented:
“Sytek
Sytek was the first of its kind at
NUST. Itt brought both participants
and organizers from different
backgrounds on one platform. A
spirit which we were lacking, but
surely never will ☺”
War is never the answer, but in the
deep, dark confines of the SEECS
computer network, war was the only
option. The battlefield with the title
“Conflict of Warriors” was set for a well
planned and well organized gaming
event that was nothing short of being
extraordinary. It might’ve been short
and it might’ve had the option of only
two games, but the atmosphere was
electrifying… literally. The E-gaming
E
competition organized under the banner
of the NUST Sytek ’10 was definitely a
blast.
In short, credit to Umair Abid Minhas
and our mentor Mr. Asad Usman (BIT
8) and technical staff at SEECS for
smoothly carrying out a scintillating
gaming extravaganza. High morale,
sportsmanship and team spirit are a few
words that describe the event. The
competition has definitely left its mark
until next time.
