7pm Thursday, New Year's Eve
Couriers $5/Civies $10
The Core Whore men's race will be followed by a fantastic New Year's Eve party at mobius. Champagne and fun await!

The Core Whore is a monopoly messenger work race where the goal is to bring home the bacon. There are seven total stops. The map is posted in order to level the field. The stop you are at is the zero and all other stops have been rated for difficulty 1-6 (corresponding to the die roll). Say a rider is at mobius at registration and he rolls a 1. At mobius, the 1 rating is given to The Pioneer Square Saloon. The registrar then writes the number and address on his manifest and places it atop his delivery (i.e. a 1" stack of paper). Later, when the horn blows to begin the race, his job is to transport the document to his next stop and receive a signature/stamp on his manifest and payment (10 Core Whore Dollars). He will then roll another die and receive another package with a new manifest. Each number on the die corresponds to 10 Core Whore Dollars (i.e. a 3=$30). At the end of the race, we will collect Manifests and Money. If a rider is missing a signature or money, that amount will not count toward his total. This is messenger work, don't lose your manifests and signatures/stamps rule the day. Whoever has the most confirmed money after two hours is King of the Core 2009.
