My net dropped half way through the end of the hunt, meaning I couldn't end it at the time I intended to. I typically try not to have more than 4-5 people in the consolation prize section (especially in this circumstance as someone accidentally posted an answer into chat).

Huge thanks to The Immortal for updating the scavengers script! It's a lot easier to access and use now, making many parts of making and participating hunts easier.

Some changes made:
-It stops extra comma errors
-Shortens some commands (/scavengerstarthunt-->/starthunt)
-Made /startofficialhunt for official hunts
-Shows blitz when someone finishes the hunt under 60 seconds
-Added italics to names of winners So Vacate and Darnell can't fake win
-Makes some phrases easier to understand ("fat luck"--> "that was not the right answer")
-Questions are now put first when making a hunt, and they are called "hints" instead of "rooms"
