Five Citadels by Upwell, and up to six potential draws?
What are the thresholds for the additional draws?
What's the story on being on the cornerstone for these? ;)
And may organizations such as, say, our little Drifter group make a contribution as a single entity?
Upwell have yet to announce specifics on the thresholds, but more info will be available on the landing page as it is announced :)
Entries will be taken per capsuleer, so whoever sends the contract will be the person entered :)

Yep! It's a random draw :) Even 1 contribution could potentially win you a fortizar BPC! The quotes are not yet finalised by Upwell, they will launch a website very soon for you to keep an eye on it.

Helios Anduath wrote:So does this mean that the top contributor will no longer be rewarded with a BPC and being named on the "cornerstone" of the first citadel as orignially stated?
This means lots of people will be eligible for a chance to win BPCs, even if they are not the top contributor. There is nothing to say we won't also reward that special person :)

Anyura wrote:So do we need to contract each component individually for a chance, or if I have say 5 and contract all 5 in one, is that one entry or 5?
5 in one contract will count as 5 entries :)

If so, its too bad that that there wasn't a clever way provided for those entities to partner up and compete with pooled resources yet still get individual recognition somehow if their partnership ended up as a top contributor. I'm disappointed that the in-game recognition element was removed from this race. As a player very invested in EVE Online, having a chance for my corp or alliance to make a mark on the game itself would be a lot more fun and interesting to go for than a lottery.
Player names, including the top contributor and winners of the prize draw, will all feature on the description of the prototype citadels :) There is just also individual prizes for the draw.

Just to clarify, and I will follow this up with a blog edit:
* The top contributor and all prize winners names will feature in the descriptions of the prototype citadels they helped to create * Each research component counts as 1 entry; if you contract 5 at once, that is 5 entries * The prize draws will happen at the end, each contracted research component counts as one entry that will be placed in the final draw * As the additional prizes unlock, they will be added as additional prizes to the main draw * If you entered one contract at the beginning, but the fortizar prize is unlocked, you are in the running for that prize * The BPCs will be fully researched, whereas the ones available at release will not be

Yes, individual

Circumstantial Evidence wrote:Miamato wrote:Did not found in dev block, but how exactly should we create contract? Can it be created on any station (npc owned\player owned), contract type, price :) If you ask for isk, I doubt your contract will be accepted ;-) Lee Brinalle's in-game character bio lists locations where the items may be contracted... no highsec options are in that list. But since the dev blog and answers here don't mention it, a special drop off location may no longer be required. Players are probably making contracts in the "wrong" locations right now... CCP Affinity - a clarification here that location does matter, or an update to Lee Brinalle's bio saying that location does not matter would be very helpful, before this gets too far out of hand :)
Will be updating the bio tomorrow :) there is no wrong location - any will do!

Does it matter if we contract 5 followed by a few hundred later as apposed to saving them all in one location and contracting them all at once?
Nope, both will count

Only the Astrohus and only a prototype. Players will be the first to build the non prototype Astrohus and also the first ever Keepstar and Fortizar :)

Expecting patch on Jan,25th I had already contracted components to Lee Brinalle at a station in one of a lowsec systems mentioned in her bio today before DT. Should I cancel this contract and reissue a new one when you specify certain stations or will my contact be still accepted?
Thanks
We have accepted earlier contracts :)

We want to remind players that impersonating the event character for your own gain is strictly prohibited and will be handled in accordance with our policies.

The prototype ones will not be usable by players and yes they will appear in those sites :)
