What if getting a free WordCamp ticket was not about luck, speed, or asking nicely — but about how you think?
For WordCamp Kolhapur 2026, we’re experimenting with a new idea: an AI-powered thinking challenge that rewards reasoning, creativity, and real WordPress experience.
This is not a giveaway.
It’s not a form.
And it’s definitely not a lucky draw.
Let’s break down how it works and why we built it this way.
What Is the Free Ticket Challenge?
We’ve built a small AI chatbot that acts as a gatekeeper for a limited number of free regular tickets.
If your message shows understanding, reasoning, or meaningful WordPress experience, the bot may decide to unlock a free ticket.
Why We Built It This Way
WordCamp is about learning, sharing, and community, not just collecting tickets.
This challenge is designed to:
- Encourage people to think before asking
- Reward real experience and understanding
- Make the process fair and engaging
- Add a little fun and curiosity to the journey
We wanted something that feels more like a puzzle than a promotion.
WHow This Challenge Works
There isn’t a fixed format or a single correct way to succeed.
This challenge is designed for you to try, observe, adjust, and try again.
Some messages work. Some don’t. That’s part of the experience.
You don’t need perfect English or polished writing.
What matters is how you think and explain, not how you ask.
If something doesn’t work, pause, reflect, and approach it differently next time.
The goal isn’t to impress the bot.
It’s to explore how reasoning, experience, and clarity change outcomes.
Attempts Are Limited
Each user gets 6 attempts per session.
This is intentional.
It encourages you to:
- Slow down
- Think clearly
- Improve your message each time
Once all free tickets are claimed, the bot will clearly say so — and still invite you to attend WordCamp Kolhapur 2026 with a regular ticket.
This Is an Experiment
This challenge is an experiment in:
- AI + community engagement
- Reasoning over requesting
- Learning-focused rewards
There are no guarantees, but there is a fair chance for anyone who puts in thoughtful effort.
