New review of our Codebreaking book in Mental Floss! mentalfloss.com/posts/codebrea… @KlausSchmeh
I and @KlausSchmeh received a wonderful review of our "Codebreaking" book from Anne Robertson at Puzzles HQ! puzzleshq.com/puzzles/review… #BookReview @PuzzlesHQ
Many members of the #MysteryHunt2024 organizing team, TTBNL, will be joining an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on Reddit tomorrow, Sunday January 21st, at 6pm ET / 3pm PT. Check r/mysteryhunt for the exact link on Sunday, here's the announcement. #MysteryHunt reddit.com/r/mysteryhunt/…
For those who participated in #MysteryHunt2024: There's a post-hunt survey, please take it to give your thoughts on this year's Hunt and help Death & Mayhem as they plan for 2025! It's at forms.gle/WxB2wcWvmkS1md…
Reddit thread about everyone's favorite puzzles from #mysteryhunt2024! reddit.com/r/mysteryhunt/…
Though #MysteryHunt2024 officially ended on Monday, the answer queue is still open. MANY teams are continuing work! It's like watching the finish line at a marathon. Of over 250 teams, 5 came in on Monday morning. Two more on Tuesday night, another this afternoon. #VroomVroom!
This #MITMysteryHunt kickoff is intense. Happy Mystery Hunt!!!!! (p.s. - LOL @ the transcription by YouTube and the idea of "eternal bread")
Commission I made for the @MIT Mystery Hunt! Thank you so much Sara Winters and Blake Weil for contacting me last year to create the Hawaii Round for the 2024 Mystery hunt :3 #mitmysteryhunt #mit #massachusettsinstituteoftechnology #mysteryhunt #2024mysteryhunt #mitpuzzle
This year’s MIT Mystery Hunt starts today! As I head up to Cambridge to join my team and lose for the nth straight year, I thought it might be a good time to share my piece on last year’s game and @scott_seiver I wrote for @WPT worldpokertour.com/news/mit-myste…
Praise for #mysteryhunt2024
Finally we can tell you who won! In an astonishing photo-finish, three teams all finished within an hour of each other, the top two within TEN MINUTES of each other. Congratulations to "Death and Mayhem", now tasked with creating the puzzles for 2025! puzzles.wiki/wiki/Death_and…
70 hours after the @MIT #MysteryHunt2024 began, the Coin has been found! Congrats to.... Sorry, can't tell you yet, tune in to the Closing Ceremonies at Noon ET to hear the announcement, and see the highlights of all the events from over the weekend! m.youtube.com/watch?v=oGmZgn…
At the @MIT #mysteryhunt2024, after 65 hours of solving the most creative (and devious) puzzles the human brain could imagine, we have a winner! One of the teams will be on their way to seek the coin shortly (after campus opens). More details coming soon! #mysteryhunt
Nearly 55 hours into this year's MIT Mystery Hunt, about 4500 people on 260 teams are still doggedly continuing on, solving hundreds of puzzles towards the final goal in this internationally famous competition. @MIT #mysteryhunt2024 #mysteryhunt puzzles.mit.edu/history.html
About 24 hours into this year's MIT Mystery Hunt, and thousands of puzzle-solvers are still going at full speed! For more about the Hunt and its puzzles, check this great article by a prior participant. puzzles.mit.edu/articles/games… @theGamesMag @MIT #mysteryhunt #mysteryhunt2024
Want to know how this year's MIT Mystery Puzzle Hunt is going? Well, it's still a mystery until the winning team emerges this weekend! But you might want to watch this TED talk by a previous year's winner. #MysteryHunt2024 #MysteryHunt @MIT ted.com/talks/alex_ros…
In this year's MIT Mystery Puzzle Hunt, the theme has been announced, "What the heck is going on with Pluto??" Check out the skits in the Opening Ceremony (18m mark), including a cameo from CalTech's @plutokiller, Professor Mike Brown. #MysteryHunt2024 youtube.com/watch?v=BwnsHR…
Today at Noon ET! Once the MIT Mystery Hunt starts, much will be secret as everyone goes heads-down to attack the many and varied puzzles. But certain parts are public, like the Opening Ceremony webcast. Feel free to tune in! #MysteryHunt2024 youtube.com/watch?v=BwnsHR…
Last year my team won the esteemed MIT Mystery Puzzle Hunt, so we were tasked with creating all the puzzles for 2024! It starts at Noon ET Jan 12, and runs until Jan 15. Thousands of people and hundreds of puzzles, it will be a blast! puzzles.mit.edu #MysteryHunt2024

@historyinmemes Defensive strategies. That’s also why medieval staircases turn clockwise. Attackers were mostly right-handed, so it was very „uncomfortable“ to wield a sword upstairs. Mostly right-handed defenders had an advantage because of this.
I wanna live there.
@ElonkaDunin @theGamesMag @MIT Wonderful to see this style of #computational thinking being offered and embraced so actively. More of a personally/peer+peer accepted challenge than an elite competition. Inspires me to consider variations of this as part of my work.. Best of luck..👍👍👍

Very excited to announce the discovery of Old English fragments inside a series of book bindings! They come from an 11th-c. Latin psalter with Old English glosses and this psalter comes with a fascinating potential backstory involving a refugee English princess! 🧵

Been going down the puzzle rabbit hole, and it turns out that the legendary MIT Mystery Hunt is archived yearly on the web. This one's the 'warm up' collection from 2022 and they are are insanely difficult, but fun if you enjoy cracking puzzles. puzzles.mit.edu/2022/prologue/
