You have the right idea. I mean, if you won you'd have to plan the whole thing next year. That's practically another full time job, I would assume. Vive le Silly Hats!

I'm glad you enjoyed meeting our team, and should you ever decide to make the trek down to Boston, we'd love to have you. We're a team made up of people from all across the country, who don't plan on winning the hunt anytime soon, and are more focused on enjoying ourselves rather than proving our superiority. Come take the ultimate nerd challenge and learn that most of those puzzles aren't nearly as hard as they look. Michael Kearney, Captain of the Silly Hat Brigade here.

I concur that MIT is super-neat to hang out in, though. Sorry you didn’t have more time in Mass. — so close and yet so far!! I concur that MIT is super-neat to hang out in, though.

I can't imagine my brain being tested on something like this. I have a hard enough time finding "Armor Class" in my Players Guide, let alone finding some coin on a campus full of mind wizards. Chris, these guys do this EVERYDAY, you can't just jump in there like that without some sort of brain condom to protect yourself. Watch a couple National Lampoon movies first, to numb the cortex, so you can take the initial intelliblast. I know you're smart and probably a genius, but these nerds can kill with a single thought. My sister went to the same type of school (only for Biology), FIT in Florida. One time when I was visiting her, we were in the library and I felt out of place since I was ONLY one NOT wearing a pocket protector. I should have come more prepared. You're either braver than I am (which isn't hard to achieve), or smarter than me, because my head would have exploded trying to keep up with those super nerds. Great stuff!
