UV light and one of the gazillion materials that glow when exposed to it would be easy... and fairly impossible to detect.

<sarcasm> Now that I think about it, the rules don't specifically ban thermonuclear weapons... </sarcasm>

This is a joke, CIA/FBI/Moderators

Can you fit a thermonuclear weapon in a 60 cm cube?

I thought about using Hydrogen gas and chlorine but figured that would be to volatile as it can ignite even in sunlight. Anyone else thinking on overexposing old camera film or vice versa?

There is a rule clarification coming out on this soon so I would wait to decide what to do.

Alright cool thanks for letting me know, guess I need to check the site more often.

Patrick Chalker said the rule clarification has written and now just needs to be posted and should be out "soon"

I have had the same question.

Does light have to be a REACTANT in the reaction, or can it simply trigger another step that mixes two reactants together?

I wish that this step was more clear in the event description.

Hence why there are issuing a rule clarification to both clarify the transfer and make it easier.

Easier, how? Also, any idea when that rule clarification is coming out?

Not sure when the clarification will be posted but I was told that it was already made and approved. Just not posted.

It is supposed to make the rules state photo(chemical?) action as opposed to a reaction. This would allow for things like fluorescent objects to be used in conjunction with UV light to create a color change.
