I thrust a duck at some poor unsuspecting fool and then proceeded to pull him through the water by said duck

*cracking up*

my team spent the rest of the weekend insisting I wear it anytime I did something particularly OCD (like straightening the cards on the solve board at 3 o'clock in the morning

Oh, that's wonderful. I'll have to tell Mariko about that.

before I knew it had been roped in to running DASH 4 in Boston

Yay, I'm glad someone's taken that on! It sounds like you've got the organizational chops to pull it off. Good luck!

(Nathan from Just for the Halibut here)

Loved your account of the hunt. I remember getting a couple sets with you at the pool event, but I'm pretty sure you didn't drag me by the duck. And trust me, you weren't the only team that put on a really bad show -- our team members who put on A Circus Line say that they will never speak of it again.

Also, speaking of mergers, I have a neighborly proposition for you. Let me know if you're interested.

Wow, I couldn't even get halfway through that video. Awesome! :)

And teaming up with Nyren. Having Nathan commenting on this post... I thought Arisia was the event that caused all my friends groups to collide, and I don't even *do* the Mystery Hunt! ;)

Nah, I'm an Arisia girl. But maybe if we move away and don't make it back one year I'll think about being a remote solver... ;)

Would you be interested in other things that don't conflict with Arisia?

To be fair, I figured out the trick to that second meta BEFORE they got back to me that last time. I (and everyone else) had made the mistake of assuming it was a word puzzle, and weren't looking for numbers... It only clicked right as Codex called in to give a hint when I realized that the random serieses of numbers I had jotted down turned out to include: 6 7 8 9 21.

Thank you guys so much for merging with us :D The Hunt was a total blast once it happened.

Thanks for letting me hunt with you! I enjoyed what I did, but had a nasty attack of Real Life at the weekend, and my biggest contribution in fact may have been to get James and Alan to help you out.

Fingers firmly crossed that we can get several UK solvers in the same place at the same time next year; much more fun than solving remotely and alone.

I think getting several UK solvers in the same place would be an amazing thing! Way more fun for you guys and very, very useful for us! Please to be doing that ;)
