HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Ideally I would love to have this wiki turn into a puzzle hunt repository of hunts and solutions (pending any issues with copyright). Dalryaug and I recently attempted Dan Katz's 2004 mini-hunt (Major Malfunction) and have placed a transcribed version with our solutions on this wiki.
Note the slightly modified wiki-structure of Major Malfunction. All puzzles are placed as subpages to one main article which allows automatic backlinks as well as the future possibility of page-based (hunt-based) permissions. --Cplover
