For now I'm putting up a link to where we'll have a puzzle list page, and the kickoff puzzle, and a sample. This should be cleaned up at some point. --Andria 20:34, 7 January 2006 (PST)

Room Assignment
Rooms have been assigned.
Ours are not the best.
Our work room (aka HQ) is 36-156. We are sharing a sleeping room, 56-191, with another team, in a building that's a slight walk from our HQ, probably via bridges if we don't want to go outside. We're not sure how big the rooms are. One thing that will need to be kept in mind is that we CANNOT discuss the Hunt in the sleep room since people from at least one opposing team will be present. There is the possibility of instead crashing at a local team member's place so that we do not feel so constrained. And so we can shower. But that's TBD.

Intro
The MIT Mystery Hunt officially begins on Friday January 13, 2006. Nathan has registered our team requested two rooms - the plan is to try and get two adjacent rooms so that we can use one for solving and one for sleeping - and we're just waiting for confirmation. (Last year a number of the more freakish of us felt we were losing too much time by doing things like going home and showering.)
If you are able to join the team right from the kickoff around noon on Friday Jan 13, that'd be awesome, but if you have to work then please do trickle in as soon after as possible. We normally start off with a few puzzles to work on Friday afternoon and can't access any others until those are solved, so the pace will pick up after we've unlocked a few additional puzzles.
