Myriads of Fun (and Pizza) in Meeting the Committee

On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, the new Invariants committee hosted their first event – a Meet the Committee combined with Puzzles and Pizza! Whilst the sun (a deadly laser) made the Common Room into a big greenhouse, combined with some dastardly puzzles set by the new Puzzlemasters, it was not enough to deter a large crowd of problem-enthusiasts to solve the puzzles together and enjoy some slices of pizza.

One person described their friend as “crashing out” over the Groups puzzle; ‘Hit and Pray’, the most popular problem by far (a long shot?), had people figuring out what ways a billiard ball could land into the pocket of a table. Plenty of others were just chatting, sometimes over games of table football or Chess.

You can meet the committee virtually on Instagram (exec, socials, creative and academic), and you can see the problems from this edition of Puzzles and Pizza below. Thanks to those who came; it was lovely to see you all!
