Number of official Viking interjections we came up with ("Ahoy!" and "Skal!", to be specific. We decided "Yaarrr" was too piratey.) |
An earlier version of the nonograms puzzle required teams to name the images that they saw in the nonograms. We reworked this step to use Scandinavian countries instead
because we found the original images weren't consistently identifiable.
For example, what do you see in the image below?

When Clan Not Appearing in this Event asked for a hint at the final location, Donna (accidentally, she claims) turned to Cyndy and asked if Clan not
Appealing was due for their next hint.
And they were standing right there. Ooops!
We used
this Arduino microcontroller (souce code
here) to drive
this push-button board. The microcontroller also turned a relay on and off to
control the actual lock, which was
this electromagnet.
If you want more info, send us mail and we'd be happy to chat.
We used
Upoc.com for SNAP staff communications
