The first invitation went out in 2177; hover robots went out across Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Texas; broadcasting the location of the event, the rules, and the prospective prize. The rules were as follows: * Only unpowered flying devices could be used. * Only one person to a flying device. * Flying machines can be of any weight and made of any materials. * Pilots can bring whatever they can carry along with them. * The course will be marked by red flags, whichever pilot that claims the final flag is the winner. * No holds barred.
