It follows the Australian hunt format, with four puzzles were released each day for five days, with the metapuzzle also released on the fifth day. The theme of the hunt was a search around the globe. Xyzzy, CISRA Puzzlers, and plugh were the top three teams out of both all teams as well as Australian teams, with the top two teams finishing their last puzzles about a minute apart. Xyzzy was also the first team to solve the metapuzzle.
