[Discussion] Tag system changes for puzzle grouping. about hunttracker HOT 1 OPEN

I think an approach for that case could be to add additional in/<meta-2> and in/<meta-3> tags to the puzzles that feed the 2nd and 3rd metas in the round? I didn't follow along with the structure of that round as it was happening (I'll check it out if/when solutions are available).

The intention of the Metas page is to display an element representing a single metapuzzle and the puzzles that feed it, not an element representing an entire round or a generic group of puzzles. I don't think we want to assume that puzzles will always be delivered in rounds or groups. It's also by design that feeder puzzles might appear on the Metas page multiple times.

If we instead had a design that would display a "group" containing multiple metapuzzles, I'm not sure how we would indicate which feeders within that "group" feed which metapuzzles... seems clearer to me to stick to one-metapuzzle-per-page-element like we do in the current approach.

I am open to broader discussion about useful additional presentations of puzzles - I just don't think we want to replace the current in/ and meta/ tagging and Metas page design, which is based on a specific definition of feeders and metapuzzles which should work no matter what the broader structure of the puzzle hunt may be.
