- "description_text" : "Welcome to the **Elevator Event** hosted by **Together Java**!\r\n\r\n## What is this?\r\n\r\nThis event consists of a guided course, in which you will create an elevator system that\r\ntransports humans in a building from floor to floor, as well as an actual contest where you\r\nare required to finish the implementation, try to improve your solution to reduce the time humans\r\nhave to wait, and finally polish your submission.\r\n\r\nThe event is **ideal for beginners** who feel confident with writing\r\nsmall applications already. In fact, this task is inspired by a commonly executed application test for\r\nJunior developers at companies, called the _Elevator Test_.\r\n\r\n## Prizes\r\n\r\n### Jetbrains licenses\r\n\r\nAmong all working submissions (elevators have to eventually transport humans to their destinations),\r\nwe will **randomly** give away up to **2 annual licenses** for any [**JetBrains product**](https://www.jetbrains.com/products/).\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThis will get you access to any of their 11 IDEs, 3 extensions and 2 profilers.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n### Role\r\n\r\nAdditionally, submissions will be graded, and the top users are awarded with\r\nthe fancy '_Ruler of Elevators_' role and a shiny badge!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n## How to submit\r\n\r\nPlease submit your solution before the event ends per DM to any of the\r\nmoderators of Together Java.\r\n\r\nThe easiest way to share your results is by just zipping the whole project folder.\r\n\r\nWe will accept any format, as long as it is clear what you have changed in the source code.\r\n\r\nWhile the event is still ongoing, please do not promote your solution openly in the server\r\nthough, to not ruin the event for others.\r\n\r\n## Need help\r\n\r\nIf you have trouble solving the tasks, or something is just unclear to you,\r\nfeel free to openly ask in the server.\r\n\r\nBesides being a contest, this is also meant as a learning experience.\r\nSo we will definitely provide you with assistance \uD83D\uDC4D\r\n\r\nEnjoy and happy coding \uD83D\uDE4C\r\n\r\n### Known issues\r\n\r\n#### Gradle uses wrong JVM\r\n\r\nIn case you encounter an error message, such as:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nGo to your Gradle settings (you can find them on the right, or directly in Intellij Settings):\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nand select a JDK 17 instead of `#JAVA_INTERNAL`:\r\n\r\n\r\n",
