YABA5 - FAQ
$$$

9/5/03 Updates are in red italics

How much does it cost?

We're keeping our prices at last year's level. The fee is $25 per person if you pay before August 30th, $30 after that, $35 if you pay at the start . If you pay via PayPal, there's a $1 per person surcharge to cover the fee PayPal charges us for each transaction (2.9% + 30 cents per transaction). 

How do I register?

Click on the "register" link at left. Registering does not guarantee you a spot in the game, however, if the game sells out. You must pay to guarantee your place.

How do I pay?

Click on the "pay" link at left for payment options. You can pay on-line via PayPal, or send a check to us via US mail.

Can I play without pre-registering?

Yes, although of course we'd prefer that you pre-register, and the game may sell out. Registering will help us to plan how much food to bring if you register in advance.

What do I get for my money?

Lots of fun!!! The best value in treasure hunting in the Bay Area. We'll feed you - twice (bagels, schmear and juice at the start, a catered buffet at the party). We'll have a month-long pregame on our web site, with hints that will help you solve the clues on game day. Then during the game, you'll get to run around in a Willy Wonka world, act like a kid for an afternoon, exercise your brain and your body in competition with 350 other gamesters...then you'll get to meet them all at the party...and who knows...you might even find romance. We know of at least two serious couples who met at a t-hunts.com event!

What are the prizes?

Members of the first place teams in each division will receive free admission to their choice of either YABA6 or BATH3, our next games.

The second and third place teams will receive prizes, as yet to be determined (e.g., bottles of wine, etc).

All three teams will receive certificates of achievement.

And one treasure hunter will go home with an American Eagle gold coin valued at $390 (as of September 5, 2003).
