Challenge #150: Have the Stars Aligned?!

JoeM
Alteryx Alumni (Retired)

Challenge 150 already!? For those closing in on 150 solutions, a badge is now available to be earned!

 

Last week, every Alteryx associate congregated in Denver, CO for our own conference. While there, we had our own Grand Prix to determine the best Alteryx user in Alteryx. This challenge presented here today represented a 'surprise' bonus round where the winner (unknowingly), had to take on an ACE! 

 

For this week's challenge, we will be running our 'bonus' Grand Prix challenge!

 

 

Description:

In 1997 a series of events were set into motion by Dean, Libby, and Ned, which eventually became Alteryx. Track the following star trajectories. It feels like they are aligning about now! See the stars' 1997 positions in the Browse tool below. What do they look like now (2019)? How will you know when you're done? You'll know it when you see it!

Yes you did, and ever so grateful for that.

Had to use the regular charting tool as we're still on an older version of Alteryx (grumble grumble, to be fixed soon)

150 done!!!!
