Looks like December is going to be a busy hunting month after all. I have 3 more hunt announcements  for December. Stay tuned.

The 4th Eye-Q hunt is organised by Malaysian Mensa Society – Penang Branch.

Date: Sunday, 20th December. 6 hours hunt, start and end at Pelita Restaurant, Juru Auto City.

Fee: RM240/team.

CoC: Jayaram.

Excerpt from  Entry Form:

The annual hunt organized by Penang Mensa is slightly more challenging than the usual treasure hunts.As such it is ideal for those who want to learn fast the approach needed in decrypting clues.

For those teams who have not yet won prizes – the Eye-Q hunt will be a learning experience which will put them on the efficient and economical path to win prizes in the usual hunts.

For those teams who are winning prizes but not consistently, the Eye-Q hunt will start realigning and reshaping your skills in deconstructing questions- so that you win more consistently in the usual hunts.

And for the rest – the Eye-Q hunt is the cryptic equivalent of the Rorschach Test – which will help you in confronting your individual weaknesses and hence set you on the correct path to even greater heights

The 2008 Eye-Q Questions. Only 15 out of the 30 questions. Join RoadRunners yahoo group if you want to download the complete 30 Q&A and Treasure Questions.

_______________________________________________________________________________

A 10 hours, 400km hunt from KL ending in Senai, Johor.

The 35 route questions were typical Govind’s.  So it the end, the 2 games worth 10 points will mostly probably decide the top few placings.

The results and prize giving were held this morning (Sunday) after breakfast. The 2 games didn’t make a great impact as I predicted.

Full points -125

1. 115 – Venka, Simon, Kumaran, Shandra
2. 112 – Liew Kok Seng, Dato’ Ramesh, Lim Kong  Yew, C.T Teoh
3. 112 – KK Chai, Margaret Sha, Chong Voon Kiat
4. 109 – Lim Say Chye, C.K Loh, Tommy Ng, Peh Kok Hun
5. 109 – Johan Salul, Dr. Ben, Haji Suhaimi, Azeez
6. 106 – Sin Yoong Leong, Claire Chin, Julie Tan, Goh Teck Koon,
7. 101 – Yeap Heng Boon, Pavanathan, Lim Soo Khian, Michael Pang
8. 100 – Ruben and team

In terms of the quality of the questions, there were 2 extremes.  A few good ones with cryptic style that we are used to and a few which makes you go ” like that also can ah?”

Another question ( i don’t have the actual question with me now) is something like ….” tempat untuk mengantar tanaman layu”

Jawapan
