[edit] Duck Konundrum

While elaborate and detailed in its explanation, this article makes no actual claim to notability, and I'm having a hard time imagining one. It seems at best to be a piece of MITiana, but I don't think it's really relevant enough to mention there. I think this is a vanity page for the game's inventor. Delete.

  • Keep. I created the article, and I'm not the game's inventor. It's one of the signature puzzle types at the MIT Mystery Hunt.--Mike Selinker 22:46, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Smerge to MIT Mystery Hunt. Minor games as part of a lightly less minor hunt don't seem to be article material. Stifle (talk) 23:21, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
This AfD is being relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that a decision may usefully be reached. Please add new discussion below this notice. Thanks!

  • Delete; MIT Mystery Hunt already mentions it under "memorable puzzles," and its inclusion even there is dubious. Mangojuice 15:46, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as NN, redundant to main article. However much this might shock their partisans, NFTMUISOD applies to MIT as well. While this competition seems notable, one of thirty or so individual puzzles within each one is no more worthy of an individual article than the Final Jeopardy question on tonight's Jeopardy show is ... and a lot more people will notice the latter than the former.

  • Delete, as it's already mentioned at MIT Mystery Hunt. Stifle (talk) 09:30, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
