DASH 5

#1 Post by Vladikavkaz » Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:52 pm

Dash5 (Different Area—Same Hunt) is usually a puzzle hunt that's held in the States, but the next one is coming to London on the 25th May this year.

Registration hasn't opened yet, but is anyone likely to be around for it?

It's an on-site hunt, so you'd need to come to London for it... :)
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".

From Daniel Day Lewis to Anneka Rice in less than a week. :)

I am unsure whether the rules are especially specific about how the puzzles are solved, although it's supposed to be done on-site rather than remotely. Having said that, there have been things like MP3 puzzles before now.

Scurra, you wouldn't look good in a shell suit, so don't go down the Anneka Rice route. Definitely better as Daniel Day Lewis, and then of course you get to keep the three Oscars as well.

I don't mind looking at things on line but I'm not coming in to London to do anything.
