GH and KITTY*LAMBDA (KittyLambda.com) want you to experience the utter unpredictability of outer space in Venture the Void: Discover Your Outer Space Style! This forum topic is your chance for an extended trial account, and the chance to win a Lifetime Paid account as well as the admiration of your peers. Head on over to VentureTheVoid.com to check it out!
Venture the Void is an Online Space Exploration Game That Doesn't Take Itself Too Seriously. Zip around the galaxy wreaking havoc as one of the four traditional spacefaring classes (Hero, Pirate, Illuminati and Janitor) while you hunt down a relic for an ancient godlike entity. There's quite a bit more to it than this, but you'll have to find out.
Featuring rock solid gameplay, expansive, autogenerated universes, and one continuous space environment panning all the way out from rocks and bushes to interstellar space, Venture the Void is what space adventures always should have been: open.
***SO NOW, SPACEFARERS, THE CONTEST RULES!***
1. Open to any and all GH forum members, including staff and their snot-nosed kids and spouses and whatnot, but they are probably all too busy running the site to actually win. =)
2. Contest runs from midnight Friday, April 13 until midnight Friday, April 27. That's TWO WHOLE WEEKS.
3. After that period, the top 3 highest scores IN THE CONTEST GAME, as well as the first 5 to complete the game world (if, indeed, any can manage) will have their trial account upgraded to lifetime paid member. If you get a top 3 score AND finish the game world, you don't get an extra paid account for doing both, just one prize. Sorry!
4. Global scores (i.e., XP earned if you play in any other games) will not count towards your total. You can play in other games but only the contest game has any effect at all on this contest.
5. Extended trial accounts given out so you can participate in the contest will revert to ordinary trial accounts with one hour play time at the end of the contest! Sorry!

2. There is also a way you can convert money to XP directly.
