       # Introduction
       
       The Old Computer Challenge V2 is over!  What a week!  It was even more
       than a week, as it was from 10th to 17th july included, that was 8
       days.
       
       # What I've learned
       
       To be honest, this challenge was hard and less fun than the previous
       one as we couldn't communicate about our experiences.  It was so hard
       to schedule my Internet needs over the days than I tried to not use it
       at all, leaving some time when I had some unexpected need to check
       something.
       
       Nevertheless, it was still a good experience to go through, it helped
       me realize many daily small things required Internet without me paying
       attention anymore.  Fortunately, I avoid most streaming services and my
       multimedia content is all local.
       
       I spend a lot of time every day in instant messaging software, even if
       they work asynchronously, it often happen to have someone answering
       within seconds and then we start to chat and time passes.  This was a
       huge time consumer of the daily limited Internet time available in the
       challenge.
       
       We have a few other people who made the challenge, reading their
       reports was very interesting and fun.
       
       # Toward the next challenge
       
       Now this second challenge is over, our community is still strong and
       regained some activity.  People are already thinking about the next
       edition and we need to find what do to next.  An currently popular idea
       would be to reduce the Internet speed to RTC (~5 kB/s) instead of
       limiting time, but we still have some time to debate about the next
       rules.
       
       We waited one year between the first and second challenge, but this
       doesn't mean we can't do this more often!
       
       To conclude this article and challenge, I would like to give special
       thanks to all the people who got involved or interested into the
       challenge.
