The
organizer of the 11th World Puzzle Championship is Suomen puzzle-harrastajat
Ahaa! (Finnish Puzzle Association Aha!). The association was founded on
February 4th, 2000. The main goal of the association is quite similar to that
of the WPF, to promote puzzling in Finland. The first thing to do was to arrange
the Finnish Puzzle Championship. The first national final was held in June 2000,
and the second final a year later. We may not yet have a large member base,
but what we lack in size we compensate for with eagerness.
