The [[Reference:DRC research notebooks/The KI|DRC notebook]] on marker missions lists three types:
The DRC notebook on marker missions lists three types:
#'''Team Capture''' – this involved two teams that would attempt to collect all of the markers, with the KI registering the first team to collect the marker. The markers could vanish after a certain amount of time or once all of them had been registered. One limitation of this method was that the markers must be in the same [[Age]].

#'''Hold''' – this involved two teams with each time collecting the markers with the winner determined by the team that had the most markers registered to them when the time limit expires. Unlike the above criteria, markers can be registered to the other team even after they have been collected by a team. Although like the above criteria, this also has the limitation of requiring the markers to be in the same Age.

#'''Single Capture''' – the last method was for a single person to search for the markers and register each one as they find them. The markers can carry text, but don't necessarily need to. These missions were sent via an invitation through the KI. Unlike the previous two methods, markers for such missions could be placed across multiple Ages.

* '''Marker poetry or puzzles''' – as finding a marker displays a line of text in one's KI, some explorers have used them to make 'walking' poetry, with a line in each marker. Others have used the markers as parts of puzzles, with the text providing clues.
