Eye-Q 4 Hunt 2009

Posted by Mike On November - 24 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

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.
