This coming Friday at 6PM Mountain Time (if you need a converter, go to:
http://www.timezoneconverter.com/) I will be holding a scavenger hunt for both old and newcomers to Tech Haven. Techhaven is a much larger place than it seems to ousiders, and it would be good for anyone interested to explore it and see for themselves.
The prize will be 1 million neocredits.
The reward will go to the first person who, after I open the race (in local chat mode) at Tech Haven / Enter B, finds Porklord, is given 1 of 3 distinct uncopyable items, and returns to me with it at TH/B. If at all possible, try to 'keep it clean', as I understand theres a possibility that if 2 or 3 people have one of the items, it might be possible to win by killing the other guys - dont do that.
If noone finds Porky, the money will be divided up amongst the unclanned Fallen Angel runners who participate.
Good luck to those of you who decide to participate.

I dont want it to be -too- hard to find him. I think I can do without the cores. I'll have to make sure though, if I dont find a good enough spot without it, I'll announce it publicly so people can arrange into small groups around a hacker. Best way if that happens might be to say that the hacker can only get a 50/50 split at best, otherwise theyd all be the only ones who could benefit. But again, I dont believe it will be necessary to include those areas.
Im trying to find a better time converter that will actually tell you the time. I knew I should have looked at that site before I posted the link.

I think maybe I should be disqualified from this event. Given that I know Tech Haven so well. There are only a few places that someone could 'realistically' hide, and I'd go right there.

Well... you could always play 'just for fun' - or, what might be more fun would be if we added you as an item holder and said they had to find both. *ponder*
Assuming you were willing? Id like to make this as much fun for everyone as I can, while showing off TH. Btw, those of you who dont want to participate, ... Im I can talk you into watching the GRs a little bit (thats why Im going to run the contest from one of them) to make sure we dont suffer a large intrusion during the middle of the contest.

No, you havent missed it, its this Friday, the 19th of December.
Here, this one is better. You can see what time it is currently in Mountain Time Zone, and compare that to your time wherever you are, and get an idea from that.

Inside Tech haven affiliated structures, outdoors, will be a possibility. Not just randomly in the wilderness (though Id considered adding that, too, to make people familiar with the outside of techhaven, but I think I'll do one where thats possible later on. If a get another volunteer to hold items or two, we might add to the hunt to include the entire outside in the two tech haven zones).

It was actually quite a lot of fun.
It didnt run as long as Id like, but I hope next time to have more things spread around techhaven.
Carn won the million NeoCredit prize, and (-VampeD-), Morpheous, and [TgR]KILLER all won 500,000 NeoCredit second prizes.
It was a blast, guys. Next time it'll be much harder, with more stops, etc. Im hoping to run it for this coming Saturday, but unlike the first one, I cant commit to that yet because of the Holidays, I will have to see. I will post a new thread when the time comes. Thank you guys a ton for playing, and I will see the latter 3 of you tomorrow or Monday.
