There haven't been any new sites posting anything on social media that I can see since yesterday afternoon (a few hours after it went live).

Yeah, I will check periodically for any updates but at this point I don't have any useful way to guide my search so it seems like a fool's errand.
Reply to @catalystgamelab on Twitter and ask for hints to sites that haven't been found yet.  Apparently they aren't monitoring this thread and gave already found Dice Tower and Geek Dad as 'hints'.

If there is more than one to a site, that is just evil.  THis is fun to watch.

(No, I have no clue what sites have the info, as a note.  Randall told me the basics of this little game a week ago or so, but I didn't get any details.  And I'm still not eligible to win, dammit. ;) )

WhiteJax coming out of thew matrix.  I tried scouring who @catalystgamelab is following for clues, but came up empty handed.  Looks like GeekDad still needs to be checked and perhaps boardgamequest.

I'm not sure why other sites haven't dropped a few breadcrumbs. Our site, Rolling Dice & Taking Names, dropped a hint pretty early thinking everyone else would do the same.

Hopefully other sites not found are watching and will drop a hint here or there.

I keep telling myself to quit, but I keep coming back.

I searched the geekdad site for PDFs again and only found 4 with one of them being the Virtual Run PDF.

I wasn't told to give any hints until just now, but you guys have found mine already.  We weren't sure how people were supposed to find the sites, we weren't given any information on how to spread the info.  But since I saw many people posting on their twitter about it, I decided to since I figured people would have a hard time finding mine.  They are telling people to start dropping hints, so keep searching social media sites.

@catalystgamelab retweeted BoardGameQuest about the virtual run.  Kinda surprised BGQ is involved since searching for "Shadowrun" or "Crossfire" nets zero hits on their website.

We don't have any posts regarding Shadowrun, we don't have a demo copy (just played a friend's demo copy last weekend) but were recommended by someone to host the virtual run since they knew we love Shadowrun (my husband played the original RPG growing up and we love the newest video game).  So we didn't have any posts regarding it, and were curious as how people would find our site as we weren't given any instructions to post hints on any social media until now.  They wanted to make it hard, but I think it got a little too hard since some of the sites the run is on don't have any Shadowrun info at all.  Just so you guys know how it went down :).  Anyways, keep searching and don't depend on a site having Shadowrun in the content!

Since UnluckyTriskaideka meant "unlucky 13", maybe something with Lucky? Seven? "Hepta"?

Yeah, I thought of that right away. However, there's nothing out there, and I get the feeling that sites were allowed to change the name of the pdf file to anything they wanted, but some just left the name alone.
Dance to the tension of a world on edge.

I just searched for 'pdf' with no qualifiers

That would only work if the files have been referenced via google. They might host the file on a different domain....GAAAH!

I don't think anyone has brought this up yet but they posted on Facebook about http://www.boardgamequest.com so far I haven't found it on there though.

It only works because Geek Dad specifically allows indexing of /wp-content/uploads. By default Word Press sites are configured not to index that directory.

yeah, it didn't work on most of the sites I tried it on.

To save you guys some trouble, we (boardgamequest.com) are not part of the virtual run. :)
