GenCon Puzzle Event

Interested in puzzle games? I'm helping out with a real-life puzzle event at [URL=http://gencon.com]GenCon[/URL] at [URL=http://www.gencon.com/indyhome.aspx?file=indy]Indianapolis[/URL] [URL=http://www.gencon.com/displayindy.aspx?file=indy-registration]next month (August)[/URL]. We've run similar events over the last several years at [URL=http://www.originsgames.com]Origins[/URL] and [URL=http://gencon.com]GenCon[/URL]. The event takes place over multiple days, with a variety of different puzzles and difficulty levels. While it's possible to complete all the puzzles with only one person, the winning "team" (i.e. the group of people who complete all the puzzles first) usually has 3 or 4 people. Prizes will be available even for people who've only solved a few puzzles. There is no charge for the event except admission to [URL=http://gencon.com]GenCon[/URL] itself. In previous years, we've had somewhere between hundreds and thousands of players take part, with varying levels of participation.

I should warn you: if you're shooting for winning the whole thing, you probably won't get a lot of sleep, but you will have a lot of fun.

Figured the puzzle-a-holics in the ARG community might be interested, especially if you were in the Indianapolis area or going to GenCon anyway.
