Thanks for the update Abhishek!
There's been discussion about having a wiki celebration at 3-4 on Saturday, at MIT. There will be ~1500 Mystery Hunters on campus from around the world, many of them wikipedians in their spare time... perhaps we can convince a few to swing by while puzzling. Phoebe and I will definitely be there.
Does anyone have wikiday rituals to share? Wiki game contests?

Hi all,
Let's do it. Let's gather at the tables near Steam Cafe on the 4th floor of building 7: http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=7
This is close to Mass Ave. If you are coming into MIT's building 7 from Mass Ave (77 Mass Ave, the building with the big columns), head into lobby 7 and then take the stairs or elevator on the left hand side to the 4th floor. We will be at the nearby tables, to the right. We'll put up signs. If you are coming from the T (Kendall or Central) follow the map above to get to building 7. Call 530-204-8302 if you get lost.
Come at 3pm and we'll have cake and music to celebrate sweet 16.
Phoebe
