Living Rings Competition
A competition is on to find and submit mining sites for the CG that contain life. Currently, we are looking mainly for Rocky rings as they contain the most Bauxite, which is the most efficient material to mine (can be done with regular mining beams). However, we would also like at least 1 site for Ice Rings as they contain Water and Liquid Oxygen. So please could you submit finds as follows:
1. Submit finds of life that is actually within either Rocky or Ice rings (i.e. the Notable Stellar Phenomenon must be in the rings)
2. Finds must be within 200ly of Explorer's Anchorage. This may be expanded if nothing else is found.
3. Finds must not be too far from entry point. 50,000ls seems like a good upper limit but you decide
4. Please submit here! Please remember to include system, body, ring type, and if it contains any hotspots relevant to the CG. Make sure to include how far it is from Explorer's Anchorage, how far it is from entry point, and if there is anything special about it (beautiful GG in the sky, twin stars, etc.). Also a screenshot!
Prizes:
We will choose winners on Saturday night and release them sometime after 19:00 UTC. If there are too few submissions, we will extend the competition indefinitely until either the CG ends or we get something worthwhile.
If more than one person submits the same location, unfortunately all we can do is award the person who submits first, unless a later submitter can prove through a codex entry that they discovered it first. We obviously won't accept the later submitter if they bring the evidence after winners have been selected, so apologies in advance if something like this happens.
The site we choose as the main (Rocky) site awards a prize of a free custom distant worlds mug, a Distant Worlds 1 patch and something from the Frontier store (skin, bobblehead etc.).
We will choose at least one Ice site, and the winner of that will get a Frontier store item (skin, bobblehead etc.) and a Distant Worlds 1 patch.
We may choose a few runner up sites. If so, each will be awarded an item from Frontier Store (skin, bobblehead etc.).
