KLANG VALLEY 23 MAR 2013: With new power, comes new responsibility! With New Year, comes new resolution!

Perhaps a fitting time to learn from previous experience, discard present shortcoming and enhance future performance!

Past feedback suggested that while several THS walk hunts in 2012 were commendable, perhaps one or two were found wanting in hunter-friendly questions and routes, but what was troubling the participants was whether the COC will get it right this time.

Would it be a Dr. Jekyll hunt, or another Mr. Hyde nightmare?

So when hunters Ruben Enbasegaram and Lenny Wan were handed the rein to clerk the first THS KL hunt in 2013 season, one  suspects that there was unspoken trepidation and great expectation about the ”friendliness” mentioned earlier!

WTI-THS BAHASA MALAYSIA TREASURE HUNT 2013 - News

New THS hunters Ooi & Lim

It was a case of First Avenue Revisited, 3 months after THS Walk Hunt 2012 Penang Leg 3 - "Red Alert". 23 hunters reconvened at the same venue, this time dressed in black.

The mission was to tackle the cryptic questions from COC Wan Tajuddin in WTI-THS Bahasa Malaysia Walk Hunt 2013 Pg Leg 1. Instead of 4 levels, they found to their horror that the hunts would require them to explore every floor in the premises and the questions were not in sequence.

However as the saying goes "When the going gets tough, the tough get going", the hunters gallantly rose to the challenge!

DOWN THE HUNT MEMORY LANE 2012

For ardent treasure hunters, 2012 was surely an exciting year!

With more than 70 hunts during the period, inevitably all hunters have their own preferences of certain events; perhaps the memory of sweet victories, the grief of near misses, the revival of theSun Motor Hunt, the arrival of new hunts etc.

Whatever the reasons, as the clock ticked towards the new year of 2013, it's always interesting to review 2012 events.

As usual, HNN would like to bid farewell to the year with a list of Top 10 memorable hunt moments during 2012.

HNN HUNT STATISTICS 2012

Surely time flies when we are having fun during treasure hunts.

So what has exactly happened during 2012? How many hunts have we had? Who were the COCs? Who are the top winners for 2012?

As usual, HNN has compiled some statistical data about treasure hunts during the year.

On record, HNN has recorded 72 hunts during 2012, with the highest number of hunts in July (11), followed by June (10).

THESUN PAST MOTOR HUNTS - News

theSun Motor Hunt 2009

theSun Motor Hunt was the brainchild of Mr. Phillip Karuppiah, a former managing director of theSun and an avid hunter himself. Inaugurated in 2004, theSun Motor Hunt aptly known as "The Mother of All Hunts" earned its moniker from the record number of participants taking part in this event each year, in addition to the record number of prizes handed out by generous sponsors. In 2006, a whopping 280 teams registered to take part in this event.

TheSun Motor Hunt, which is within the vicinity of the Klang Valley, is certainly not for the faint hearted, for it is well known to be one of the more challenging, if not the most challenging treasure hunt event on the hunting calendar. Teams are separated into two categories of Master and Novice with elite teams competing in the Master category having to face questions of a much higher level of difficulty.

While COC Rajj of Purple Antz was in charge of the Beginners' questions, the tougher questions for the Regulars were concocted by his co-COC Jayaram Menon. The posers were definitely challenging, where the hunters were given a strenuous mental exercise.

To ensure that the hunters were fully awake before the hunt, special instructors from the sponsor Celebrity Fitness were brought in for the physical exercise.
