$100US Prime Bounty
Posted 16 Sep 2005 by Lee


This is to announce a $100US prize to anyone that finds the next prime for Riesel Sieve.

Rules:

1. Finder must use LLRNet and reserve k/n pairs thru the official Riesel Sieve LLRNet system.
2. The prime must be in the form of k*2^n-1 and must be one of the 68 k's currently 'owned' by Riesel Sieve. Meeting requirement #1 should make this rule redundant.
3. Finder can live anywhere in the world. If you live in a country where it is illegal to recieve US funds or a country where it is illegal to ship funds to from the US, a third party will be used to transfer funds.
4. The prize is $100US but a suitable website of your choice may be substituted for the purchase of but not exceeding $100US in merchandise. i.e. www.newegg.com
5. In the highly unlikely event that more than one prime is found 'at the same time' the prime marked in the SQL database as turned in first will be awarded the $100US.
6. Any additional primes found meeting the same criteria above within 30 days of the $100US prime will be awarded a minimum of $50US to be paid as same.

Edit: For those who don't know, Intels are GREAT at the LLR program they mention.
