I think it's 10. (Sorry, to be clear, I'm not joining in, just making an observation!)

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
Registered team members are 10. We usually only register 1 or 2 . Anyyone who wants to join in is more than welcome. Unless anyone fancies jetting off to Melbourne just in case we should be in the top three
we aren't eligible for prizes. At the moment I'm sending team name and team password by PM. Same system as previous outings.
Scurra will open up the closed forum before the day for all participants and somewhere we'll find the passwords etc for our joint idiotic ideas pages.

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
This was fun last time - my first 'joint effort' project. Count me in 
Not sure how much time I'll have available, but I'll check in at the idiotic ideas pages and add my burblings.

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
That would be those idiotic pages that you've been known to come up with the answers to the puzzles for would it?

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
Multiple idiots all scribbling on the same bit of paper was strange to watch - but a heck of a way for collaberative working
I had one or two thoughts that others were able to run with.

I always knew you were the clever half of the twin combo.

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
That sums it up nicely MBH.I had one or two thoughts that others were able to run with.
I recall yelling for help on a couple of puzzles because I could see wood but the trees were in the way.

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
OK I'll join but you know how hopeless I am you've been warned.
I don't have hot flushes. I have short holidays in the Tropics.

Am I allowed to sign in at the end of each day and marvel at how clever you have all been? 
Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
Well, I have offered to look in when I can, and make comments if I can!
So who else will have a look to see what it is all about?

Re: MUMS puzzlehunt 2010
I'm tempted to volunteer to help, but I'm not sure that I should. I'm going to get into trouble one of these days for the amount of time I spend online from work....
Are the puzzles in a form I can screenprint and work at offline?
But then, if there's no limit on how many people can sign up at this end, I might as well just in case! No idea what's involved at all, so please don't expect much! (after all, I don't think I've yet solved even half of a PB issue)
