Competition Details - Scoring
The object is to gain access to and take control of the free range boxes, tag the hack.html file with your team name, and try to defend the box against other would-be hackers. This is done by adding special tags inside the hack.html file:

<owner>nobody</owner>
<tag>mess with the best, die like the rest</tag>

See a sample hack.html file as it is live on one of the game systems.
