Rules

Timing

The event will begin on 12/31/23 at 12:31:23PM PST.

Solutions will be posted on 1/7/24 at 01:07:24PM PST.

Teams

There is no limit on team size, but we recommend small teams (1-4 players) for maximum fun.

Hints

The event will have some free pre-written hints available. If those hints do not address where you are stuck, you can send email, but we will not promise a rapid (or even same-day) response.

“Winning”

The leaderboard is sorted by metapuzzle solve time, regardless of how many hints are taken. The leaderboard will also show number of hints taken by each team. There will be no prizes.

Code of Conduct

Please don’t try to hack the server, slow down the server, or otherwise play unethically.

The server will throttle your ability to submit guesses if you enter too many guesses in a short period of time. The server will also lock you out of submitting answers for a puzzle after too many incorrect guesses. If this happens, you can request an unlock via email.
