How To Play

Find a task. They're in the Wired UK Magazine July issue, on this site, and via @WiredUK.

Complete the task. Solve a puzzle. Make a video. Whatever it is, get it done.

Tweet your answer. Each task has a unique #hashtag. Tweet this hashtag, along with your answer to @WiredUK. The instructions for each task will specify what form your answer should take. You can also use our quick-submission boxes on this site for each task.

Earn points. We track your points via Twitter on our live leaderboard. Be the first player to solve a puzzle, or submit one of the best entries to a task to earn extra points.

Play in teams. To create a team to play with your friends, just add any hashtag - like #london or #teamblue - to your answers.

    Prize-Giving Approaches

    Prize-Giving Approaches

    Dearest Candidates,
    In the weeks since we last communicated, your applications have been processed, your class photos have been examined, and the Empire’s pride has swelled mightily. You have done yourselves a great credit, and it gives me pride to welcome you all into joint citizenship of His Majesty’s Empire and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

    We are now no longer accepting applications for first wave joint citizenship. We will soon be announcing our Most Honoured Citizen award, to the lucky applicant who fortune has chosen from the ranks of the most notable of you proud candidates. We will also be celebrating your efforts and applications with public recognition and more tangible rewards.

    It has been a pleasure to serve you through this process, and I look forward to congratulating our Most Honoured Citizen.

    I am, proudly, your Ambassador,
    Charlton Rice-Laurie
