Race will take place Saturday, 17 October YC117. Race is scheduled to start promptly at 20:00 EVE time (GMT +0).
Race will begin and end in the THERA wormhole system, and will consist of 12 intermediary way-points. Each system’s way-point will be clearly marked, usually on-grid with a major landmark or other overview beacon.A list of hints pointing to each way-point will be provided to participants shortly before race start.
Once the race has begun, participants must travel to each location and create a bookmark at the way-point marker.
When all 12 way-point bookmarks have been created, contestants must then return to THERA to complete the race. To turn in bookmarks, as well as time-stamp completion, participants must dock with top station (Thera XII – The Sanctuary Institute of Paleocybernetics) and contract all 12 bookmarks to M1sty. For clarity, her name will be linked in the event channel’s MOTD.
Anyone wishing to contribute something towards the race or Cares for Kids should direct their donations to M1sty.
Travel through dangerous sections of space may be required, so fly smart.
Participants should keep an eye on eve-scout.com for up-to-date information on entrances to Thera. Participants requiring assistance getting into or out of Thera should request a scout.
New Eden is a big, and often violent place. Your safety cannot be guaranteed.
