Wow, that is completely daunting. So many puzzles. . .
How big are the teams typically? I'm trying to get a sense of how big Mystery Hunt it. From Matt's pics I can tell it's popular (and why wouldn't it be?) but how big are the groups?
Thanks!

Exactly my thoughts, Solomon.
Fanderful, too!
Thanks Bryan! *Bookmarks this page.* Semester finals, this week, for me. After those, I'll be able to concentrate a lot more on things like this! Can't wait.

My favorite puzzle, I think, from this year was Embezzler's Quest (in How to Succeed at Finance by Being Really Really Evil). Working on that puzzle, especially since it was 4 AM, was so hilarious.

My favorite had to be War Dance, because watching her dance cracked me up =P Not to mention, it was the only puzzle I made major contributions to. The puzzles are harrd!
Some pictures from the Manic Sages
If anyone took a video of the wrap-up, I want to see it! I missed it since I had to leave early =(

Mike, thanks for the photos. They were fun to look at. Probably it was not so much fun for the people solving puzzles. :) Maybe the opposite... I don't know yet.

As one of the people solving puzzles in one of those pictures, I'd have to say that it was definitely SO MUCH FUN :)

I think it was a mixture of frustration and fun; it's frustrating while you're trying to figure the darn thing out, then you get really excited once you finally get it. But overall: So. Much. Fun! =P
