Hi everyone,

Thanks again for participating in the 2006 MIT Mystery Hunt, and
for all your kind comments. Both Phys Plant (the team that ran it
this year) and the Evil Midnight Bombers (who will be running it
next year) are very interested in your answers to some survey
questions. If you have a few minutes, please fill out the survey
below and email it to puzzle mit edu (or you can submit it
anonymously at http://mit.edu/puzzle/www/mailto.html) -- we'll make
sure the Bombers get it too. If you have any other comments, of
course, we'd love to hear them.

Thanks so much.

SURVEY QUESTIONS:

1. What puzzles did you really like? What puzzles did you really
not like? Why?

2. How many people were on your team? What was your headquarters?
Was it enough room? Did it have enough drops/phone lines/cell
reception/power outlets/etc?

3. What did you think of the call-out system? What did you think of
the division between call-in and call-out? Do you have any
suggestions for improvement?

4. Ideally, when should Hunt end in your opinion?

5. What did you like/dislike about the theme? What did you think of
hinting at the theme before Hunt started? Did that make it more or
less fun?

6. What did you like/dislike about the agent encounters?

7. A bunch of puzzles required bringing/sending stuff to
headquarters (such as in Advanced Foreign Operations; Bring us
Food, Yo; and Counterintelligence). What did you think of those?
Were there about the right number, too few, too many?

8. What did you think of the events? Were there about the right
number, too few, too many?
