Talk:Microsoft Puzzle Hunt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Also the Iron Puzzle a new hunt idea is scheduled for November and would be a good addition to this site. Maybe among a list of links to "related events", but I don't think it belongs on this page.


Proposed changes to PHA entry: Due to possible conflict of interest (I was one of the PHA organizers), I have moved all my contributions that were not basic facts to this talk page. If you find them to be worthwhile, feel free to add them back:

  • Memorable Events/Puzzles: Shipwreck, a puzzle which required you to dive to the bottom of a pool to retrieve acrylic rings printed with fragments of navy signal flags. Call of the Past, a metapuzzle that had you build a quinoa-powered computer that produced a phone number. The top three teams finished the hunt separated by only 16 minutes.
  • Landmarks: Largest number of teams finishing. First hunt with automated web answer submission system. First hunt to have a dramatic end-of-hunt spectacle at the closing ceremonies.
