    You have to buy the deeds from the online shop now, or from another player.

    Not true. 5k is enough to win it most days...If your avatar is due for a 5k hof, you are gonna get it no matter where you are. I won both prizes one day planet side with a Terramp 4. Just cuz claims are bigger in UG doesn't mean that you are going to get paid back more there than you are anywhere else when the game decides to pay you back.

    25-35k will probably get main prize again, and that can be hit planeside just as easy...don't let the fact that UG "looks" like the best place fool you. The big hits come from there because the gamblers lose twice as fast there. And those big hits come from insane losses incurred by the big gamblers, and not because it is the "best spot" for everyone.

    Actually sunsout, if you do the geometry, you burn closer to 4x the probes in the UG. Since the radius is about half the normal radius it takes close to 4x probes to cover same area.

    either way, good luck to everyone and weeee!!! my aud's will be paying premium for a bit here.

    Let me edit to add: YES, those big jackpots you see, rarely are they really 'jackpots' they are more of an 'almost catch up' to what has already been dumped in.

    Actually the radius is 40% of above ground, so it's a little over 6x.

    Yes, can we please get some info on this?

    Also, as the event starts at 12:00 UTC, does this mean the cutoff for each day is @ 12:00 UTC or is it at the actual end of the day?

    As last year they will be spawned after the event

    cutoff for the daily prizes is at midnight utc, to make it as easy as possible for everyone involved. So the daily period is between 00:00 to 23:59
