Seattle Event
You may have heard, the puzzles for this event were also used in a Seattle mini-game on the 26th. There were a few differences in the logistics of the event (i.e. theirs had a point scoring system; there was no MUNI; it was on the UW campus), but the clues remained intact (and solved to SF locations). Their website is
here. Hopefully, they'll update their site with their experiences. We heard it went well!
Walkthrough
Teams received a booklet, MUNI passes, and a welcome sheet once they signed in.

The Clues
Each of the main clues solves to a location in San Francisco, except for the meta, which solves to an answer word. Upon solving the answer word, teams were instructed to open the 'finish envelope' to lead them to the end location. In between main clues were travel clues to occupy teams' time while traveling. The travel clues were completely optional.
