Description: The MIT Mystery Hunt website includes information and clues on current and past hunts, hunt history, and a coin gallery (the item being searched for each year). There are also hunt resources such as resources for beginners and puzzle how-tos. The page is also hosted at http://web.mit.edu/puzzle/www/. The MIT Mystery Hunt is an annual puzzle-solving event (puzzlehunt) which has taken place on the MIT campus every year since 1981. "Traditionally, the hunt begins at noon on the Friday in January before Martin Luther King Jr. Day, during MIT's Independent Activity Period (IAP). At the start of the hunt, all of the teams congregate in MIT's Lobby 7, where the hunt organizers reveal the year's theme in an opening skit and pass out starting materials. The teams then adjourn to their bases and access the first puzzles of the hunt online."
