I've though about it a bit more this morning and decided that I'll put the derelict up for a public bid once I have all the details. I don't know its exact location, name, core, modules or anything apart from two unique aspects: it will have a unique Cardamine processing module, and no upkeep. I will donate a certain % of the final bid to the other top participants of the event, provisionally say 50%.
And yeah, I get your feedback @R.P.Curator. It's a bit sad we're so ingrained in mistrust due to the history of staff behavior, because I genuinely just played the game like anyone else would. The rewards were decided as objectively as it gets regardless of my whims or wishes, which is why I, who never touched a POB in his life, ended up with a POB, same as any other player would have. But sure, I get that regardless of the best intent possible, it can look off because it's easily abusable. As for blocking participation, it would be a quick recipe for getting demotivated and eventually never wanting to host another event again. Appreciate the feedback nonetheless, happy to hear you enjoyed the event.
