Please help contribute to the scavenger hunt! (Update 02/17/2007)

Update 12/22/2006: The scavenger hunt will be pushed for late January due to scheduling conflicts. I'm very sorry. We will have this hunt, so please be patient. Thank you for your understanding.
Update 02/12/2007: Monstermitch is getting the final responses from the pledged donors so we can tally the prizes up. The hunt is so close now I can smell it.
Update 02/17/2007 Things are not looking so well I'm afraid. I just spoke with Monstermitch and it appears that we have less than half the donations available that were pledged. This puts a serious damper in our hunt, as prizes appear to be lacking. We will be discussing whether or not we will continue as is, hold a smaller hunt, or scrap the idea all together. Please bear with us why we figure this out and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
Well we are doing another scavenger hunt here on the Shroomery again. Some of you may recall this year's hunt and the success we had with prizes being donated. Here is the link to the last hunt:
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat...rue#Post5374813
Backupwards has declined to host the hunt again due to scheduling difficulties, but I have asked Monstermitch and he graciously accepted.
The purpose of this thread is to solicit as many prize donors as possible. We are looking for anything related to cultivating with the exception of live cultures. I'm sorry, but we cannot accept live cultures as prizes. This is for your own protection.
There are a few rules to observe here if you wish to donate some prizes.
Rule #1 All prize donors are responsible for providing viable specimens if they involve spore syringes or prints.
Rule #2 All prize donors are responsible for shipping costs to the prize winners. Please ship all prizes within a timely manner.
Rule #3 Please pledge prizes you know you have, not what you might have when the time comes to ship.
Rule #4 Have fun! This is a great way to help support our newer members.
The details of the hunt will be coming very soon. If you take the time to read the previous hunt rules and content, you'll get a pretty good idea what to expect. As you can see from the previous hunt, the response for prize donors was overwhelming. Let's try and make this the best hunt yet.
Thank you in advance for any prize donations.
Please confine responses to this thread with donations only. Thank you.

This contest sounds pretty fricken sweet, in the rules though it seems like the longer you have been on the forum the better prizes you can win. this seems like a science quiz iread some of the old questions lmao. cant wait for it to start

thank you everyone so far.
good point hyphae, great offer though Capedo! thanks for sure for that.
emilbus, I have sent you a pm and will answer all of your questions.
and I am going to update my list of offerings:
10 pounds of dry Tenn Stud basic substrate. 5 each to 2 winners.
5 synthetic filter discs from sporeworks for wide mouth jars.
20 blue self-healing inoculation ports, 5 each to 4 winners.
20 red vacutainer self-healing inoculation ports, 5 each to 4 winners
48 pre-made grain lids, 12 each for 4 winners. (these can be substituted for LC lids by the winners if they wish)
20 or so various prints, to be distributed amongst all winners. (exact amounts and strains will be in the final prize list)
110 15ml Red Top Vacutainers, 10 each to every winner, minus the grand prize winner. (grand prize gets plenty from Wronguy)
that should be all. if I have extra stuff that isn't too heavy around, I'll toss it in later.

Great efforts so far people. Please keep them coming. The more prizes we have to give the better. I know some of you have some old prints out there just collecting dust in your drawers. Let's all pitch in and show our newer members how much we care about this community.

I don't think we can use that for the cultivation of mushrooms.
Wouldnt that help with the "Patience" in cultivation? I'll throw in the quarter of blueberrys. No but really, I got 3 extra rolls of transpore tape laying around. Even tho not everyone uses it. Add it to the list. Oh yea, and a bottle of peroxide. Its something. Thats my donation. So far...
