Starting to catch up. It will take a while.
Nutshell review of Palindrome's hunt: 'Nuff fun? Yay!
Congratulations to the Evil Midnight Bombers What Bomb at Midnight. Thanks to Palindrome for constructing a fun Hunt. Thanks to Immoral, Illegal, and Fattening for inviting me to solve on the team this year.
I had a great time, largely because I felt that I held my own on the team. I solved one puzzle mostly myself, was part of several successful solving pairs, and made (I think) useful contributions towards a fair number of puzzles. Sure, I also made my share of mistakes, and there were some puzzles that still frustrate me, but there were plenty of "Aha!" moments and that felt good.
Detailed writeup of the weekend will, I hope, follow.
