TEAM SPOTLIGHT: HE'S A WIZARD
[He’s a Wizard recreates Pet Sounds.]
Coming in 3rd place for MM2K10 is Team He’s A Wizard! The Wizards made their debut in this game as a remix of the former Team Food- a team who has consistently placed high in their past games, and is known for their tenacity in solving clues with little assistance from Game Control. True to their old ways, The Wizards showed their prowess by...
Never Fear
I haven’t forgotten about updating and rounding off the rest of the MM2K10 team profiles, but it’s been a busy spring! Hang tight, and hopefully within the next couple of weeks we’ll be back on track.

Snoutcast talks about AR Midnight Madness! →
Here’s your not-so-briefing: I sent along a message to the folks over at SnoutCast about game-related thoughts/ideas. Coming from a background that involves a lot of the bigger games that take place mostly on the west coast, I figured they’d have some interesting things to say- and they did not disappoint!
My thoughts revolved around the idea of not only recruiting new players and...
Team Spotlight: Masters of Madness
Masters of Madness, another three-person team, featured at least one player from a previous year, as well as a relative of a current MM veteran.
With all this talent in one small group, the Masters did not disappoint. In the photo portion of the game, The Masters clearly made up for a lack available props with their spiffy creativeness- above is their submission for the cover artwork of...
Team Spotlight: Lords of Hell
Lords of Hell may not have finished the game due to next-day work schedules (we all gotta earn that money), but they put up a hell of a fight for the duration.
Lords of Hell used up exactly NO hints for the first few clues of the game- made all the more impressive by the fact that LoH was only a THREE-PERSON TEAM! As well as being one of the smallest teams in the game this year (and amongst the...

And Without Further Ado...
I would like to introduce the winners of MM2K10-
PINKY AND THE BRAINS!!!
I would like to congratulate all members of Pinky & the Brains for playing a great game, and for competing so thouroughly in each aspect of the game that was asked of them. Pinky & the Brains seemed to have a great time playing the game while doing their darnedest to win all those hard-earned points- all while...
A Brief Synopsis of MM2K10
This year’s game centered on the theme of “Battle of the Bands.” Teams were asked to come up with band names and make stickers or flyers to advertise their band with. Puzzles throughout the night were usually somewhat musically themed- and, unlike most previous games, solved puzzles gave a music-themed passcode in order to gain the location of the next clue, rather that solving...
