Greater Brokers

The ship was immense, nearly cylindrical, and apparently constructed from the remains of a half dozen other ships. The patchwork hull seemed to flaunt various pieces of alien technology, much of it which was one time classified by the race it once belonged to. Not any more, as the scavengers within it had made sure anything of interest made its way towards their grasping hands. A general hail rises up from the ship, beckoning to all within a few light years. This is followed by a comunique on an open channel.
A man's jovial face appears on view screens throughout the sector. He wears several gaudy earrings and his clothing is ridiculously flashy, clearing meant to grab attention.
"People of the galaxy, do you want to make money with no expense to you."
He pauses a minute and flashes an award winning smile.
"Well that just doesn't happen...usually. But just this once, the Community of Greater Brokers is giving you this chance. Somewhere, concealed on the surface of one of the planets in this sector, are roughly 1 million gold bars. They are yours, yes yours, if you can find them before any other ship in the sector gets there first. Now the bars won't appear on sensors until you are almost right on top of them, due to a dampening device in the area. If any are interested in playing this once in a life time game, contact the G.B.S. Hunger. Someone will be standing by to take your call.
