| + | <big>'''MediaWiki has been successfully installed.'''</big> |
| | | | |
| − | ===DUE DATE===
| + | Consult the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki software. |
| − | ALL PUZZLES (except runaround and event puzzles) should be ready for playtesting by WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14.
| |
| | | | |
| − | ===Testsolving Page=== | + | == Getting started == |
| − | [http://wavelet.ietfng.org/secret/puzzles/ Here] is the page for testsolvers,
| |
| − | which will (probably) eventually become the main puzzle page. As I work on the
| |
| − | system, this will be updated.
| |
| − | Log in as foo:bar.
| |
| | | | |
| − | ===Wiki Conventions===
| + | * [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Configuration_settings Configuration settings list] |
| − | Some things to keep in mind when adding a puzzle:
| + | * [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:FAQ MediaWiki FAQ] |
| − | * Please put the answer on a separate page, linked from the bottom of the puzzle page (this allows other people on the wiki to testsolve puzzles).
| + | * [http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-announce MediaWiki release mailing list] |
| − | * When creating the answer page, write something (anything at all!) in the "summary" box. By default, the recent changes page dispays the beginning of the text on the page; putting text in the summary box prevents that. (The same goes for any edit of an answer page).
| |
| − | * Please indicate on the main page when your puzzle is ready for testsolving. | |
| − | | |
| − | ==Guide/Intro Handout==
| |
| − | We're working on a handout to give out to Hunters [[GuidelinesHandout|here]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Theme==
| |
| − | The theme of the Hunt is "Soviet Alice in Wonderland". It'd be awesome if puzzles or their answers were themed appropriately. Runaround and event puzzles should definitely carry this theme.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the midst of a Wonderland torn by Communist Revolution, the local equivalent of the KGB sends agents on a mission to hunt down the hidden leader of the anti-Communist forces. Clues gathered by field agents and interrogation of captured enemies will bring them ever closer to the mind-scrambling truth...
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Puzzles==
| |
| − | === Attached Puzzles ===

| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Propaganda==
