The puzzle included in this post encodes the location of PuzzleNight event 1, which happens Wednesday, February 5th starting 6:30pm!
A post with hints will be released in a few days, which should make the puzzle easier.
The location of PuzzleNight will be released publicly in a week.
Here it is:
PN_Night1_PrePuzzle (fixed small error in originally posted version).
Like most puzzles used for PuzzleNight, it is designed to be done by groups of 2-4 people, and may include unexpected surprises. It should result in an explicit address.
