[[File:Huntinality Board.png|alt=Four 2D illustrations of birds contained in circles. The three circles on the left are smaller than the circle on the right. The bird in the right circle is a red cardinal. The bird on the top left is grey, black, and white chickadee. The bird in the middle-left is blue jay with an exaggerated puff of hair and headphones. The bird on the bottom left is a yellow goldfinch.|thumb|200x200px|Huntinality 2.0's founders, as seen on the Huntinality website.]] |

'''[[Huntinality 2022]]''', subtitled '''Huntinality 2.0''', was the second iteration of [[Huntinality]], run by [[Cardinality]] in June of 2022. |
|||
The hunt was themed around a beta test of a new web platform, which ultimately resulted in the internet rolling back to the era of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_GeoCities GeoCities] and other build-it-yourself websites of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Fittingly, all of the rounds beyond the introductory round were designed to look like personal webpages from that era. |
|||
The hunt was won by ''<nowiki/>'ᦿ NEW TAI LUE WIRED MOUSE''' (a team fielded by the larger [[⛎ UNICODE EQUIVALENCE]] team), who finished in just under 9 hours. |

Featured article (Check back later for this month's.)
Cipher & Code Breaking Competition, often abbreviated as CCBC, is an annual puzzle hunt run by Cipherpuzzles. It is the oldest puzzlehunt in Chinese. The old name for CCBC was Cipher & Code Bar Competition because the first CCBC was run by SEVENKING who was the administrator of Baidu Cipher Bar in 2008. This name was used until CCBC X, the 10th iteration of CCBC. Due to the reduced correlation between CCBC and Baidu Cipher Bar, the name was changed from 'Bar' to 'Breaking'. It is mainly designed for Chinese puzzle solvers but also friendly to non-Chinese puzzle solvers. Like many other hunts, the winning team will be responsible for designing next year’s hunt. It allows a max team size of 5.
