| Galactic Puzzle Hunt Chronology | |
Galactic Puzzle Hunt 2017, titled the Puzzleball Championships, was the first iteration of the Galactic Puzzle Hunt, run by ✈✈✈ Galactic Trendsetters ✈✈✈. Unlike later hunts in the series, puzzles were released in batches of five every day, rather than unlocked through team-specific progression. This format was inspired by earlier online hunts at the time, namely the MUMS Puzzle Hunt, SUMS Puzzle Hunt, and CiSRA Puzzle Hunt. Teams that solved each puzzle within 24 hours would not have any tiebreaker penalty. As such, the winning team Duck Soup was the fastest team to complete the hunt among this group, although Test Solution, Please Ignore solved the final metapuzzle earlier at 4:17PM Pacific.
