I found the first Safety Override and Dadds found the first Crematorium (in that order).
first, sign in and we will determine the stakes.
1. first to discover (FtD)New Star Cluster
2. FtD Space monsters
3. FtD alien civilization
4 FtD alien relic
5. the first to bring home an unknown mineral or gas
6. FtD 'rogue' planet/stellar system
there are 1 day 17 hour until the update is ready...
(edit - I propose that all participants dedicate 1 QP in each of the above categories and pay that QP to the first to discover it. and so on with each category thereafter)

You are ready for the race yes, but are you ready to wager?
(edit - Will all y'all please go back and read the previous edit up-there ^)

Did you miss a zero or is it really only 1 QP for each category? Count me in.  |

I do not miss zeros, we can adjust the amount before the 'kick-off'.
that is one QP for each of 5 categories.
multiply with how many is in the pool (at this time, we are 5) ... (with ten entries, the winner will get 10 QP - his own and 9 others)...
I thought that more than 1 QP could be hard to scrape up for some captains. I would prefer a buy in of 10 QP per category myself...
...(side bets are always in order)...

What? Are you offering to send me QP and want me to just put it my pocket? That will not work (trust issues could raise it's ugly head), and I will not accept that responsibility.
We are honorable people here and we can be trusted to pay when someone wins.
Punitive damages can be assessed if there are any "welcher's" (2X - 3X - or more, depending upon circumstances). And, welching on a bet will be posted through-out the forum...
Just let it be known (non-payment) to this forum and the Galactic Gaming Commission (all who place wagers here become members of the 'Gaming Commission") will investigate.

Well, those captains who will find it hard to scrape 1 QP for each category shouldn't be joining in the first place. The fuel cost alone will be huge for them. I'd say officially make it at least 10 QPs for each category, or just no QPs and just bragging rights. LOL |
