cujobear introducing the NITWITS puzzles


The National Institution of Turning Wittiness Into Treasure Society (often shorted to NITWITS) is a set of puzzles on the PvE Rev 20 map. Players could visit the Adventurer's Guild to see 20 riddles on the NITWITS office wall. Bringing a correct item to the corresponding sign gave players a paper with coordinates hidden in the lore. Players going to the coordinates would find a series of items in item frames, which, when deciphered, would lead to a town or a set of coordinates on P. Near the indicated location is the characteristic NITWITS sculpture, an enchanting table on top of a beacon surrounded by stained glass panes. Bringing the paper to the sign on the beacon rewarded the player with an enchanted version of the item originally turned in for the initial riddle.

New clues were revealed periodically since the event's launch on July 2, 2017, up to 20 clues. For five completed clues, a parrot egg was rewarded by modreq; for ten clues, 10 diamonds and a NITWITS badge (renamed diamond); for fifteen clues, a pair of elytra with Unbreaking 5; for twenty clues, a voucher that can be redeemed for one of six prize boxes at the Adventurer's Guild prize trading shop at the third floor of spawn.

The NITWITS scavenger hunt was set up by cujobear.
