Quick question - is there chance the winner of the grand prize would then be ineligible for the "2 day event" prize?

(thus giving me a chance at the mining contest)

Was worth a shot... :P

I find that unlikely Epictetus as the 3-day and 2-day events end well before the Grand Price for Global per Day.

I could be wrong tho, but I hope not

2500 peds blown in the last 3 days without a single global, I'm at level pegging as far as 1 global per day goes so there goes my safety cushion and still plenty of time to go
