Many of my friends from the National Puzzlers' League self-publish puzzles on irregular schedules. I thought it would be a good thing to have a "blog" (such as it is) that simply consolidates announcements of such puzzles. And here it is.

I trust Tyler.

MIT Hunt: Outtakes
Dr. Whom writes over on LiveJournal:
The Outtakes section from the 2011 Mystery Hunt has been posted. This includes two puzzles, and one full round structure with metas and supermeta, that were successfully testsolved but were cut from the Hunt because there wasn't enough space for them. I hope you enjoy them!

Zebraboy: Labor Day Extravaganza

Hi folks,
For whoever on this list might be interested, I'll be posting my annual set of Labor Day puzzles on Saturday Sept. 3rd. 2:00 Eastern at www.markhalpin.com/puzzles/puzzles.html, this year called "Let's Get Away From the City". Some people enjoy doing these solo, and some prefer doing them with a team, since they tend to be on the tougher side. Also, while racing is encouraged via a Leaderboard, leisurely solving is also encouraged by awarding a prize to a random solver from anyone who submits a solution within two weeks, when hints and solutions are posted. Hope many of you play!
