Introducing the Badge

Meet the amazing Bill Badge and join our amazing game!

Bill came back to human's mindscape, but something is wrong: four versions of himself are coexisting on the same timeline. These four entities will fight to decide which will be the imposed real one. While dimension-traveling, his rainbow unicorn key got split into four different keys (, , , ). The secrets and hidden mysteries will only be revealed to those in possession of the unicorn key, forged with all the keys. Bill is an overpowered, low cost, easy to solder and plug and play badge designed by MysteryHack for #36c3!

This table (included with the badge kit) will help you solder the components. Notice the special instructions on the bottom and some details like the 3 resistors that are taped toghether:

Extra help, pay special attention to the pins and battery holder details:
