Weren't you supposed to wait until the submissions close to publish spoilers?

- anitil 1mo agoI emailed them and asked as I'm in Sydney and didn't want to mess it up - they said to wait until the end of my workday, so I posted it at roughly 5:30 my time. I hope I didn't spoil it!
- eru 1mo agoTheir logistics were a bit weird: they asked not to post spoilers, but also ask you to link to your write-up. In any case, I had it all worked out already. But looking at other people's submissions today showed me that I found some easter eggs other hadn't. That was encouraging. (And I missed some that others found, of course.)

- anitil 1mo agoI was confused about that too - I ended up posting an empty page to generate the link ahead of time (and hoping that it wouldn't get picked up by anything), then actually posting the solution later. I also realised I'd missed a lot of easter eggs, like the morse code - I wish I'd spotted that!
