I saw somebody spamming Hulkathon info around Jita but was looking for some details.

1. When does it start?
2. Will there be a score keeper?
3. Will there be prize categories? Like Most, Best Kill Mail, most kills on same pilot, etc

I'm looking at around 2nd week of januari for that at the moment,

Yes, there will be a custom API-based killboard to keep track of score.

There will be a payout per 10 hulks for starters, then there is the usual prizes for top 3 individual, top 3 corp, top 3 junior league (non T2 miners). As well as several achievement based prize categories.

I'm not sure yet if I'll also include a random jackpot, though I'm quite fond of that one.

This year it's not only the 42-km Hulkathon. The 2012 games also include hulklethics, hulkminton, hulktathlon, hulk polo, hulklifting, and hulkastics.

Yes, there will be figure hulking, and there will also be synchronized hulking, which is my favorite hulkympic sport.

While I enjoy Figure Hulking, I find the performances of the 'Dying Macknaws on Ice' far more entertaining.

Hulkathon. I like that title, it sounds like an event hosted by Jerry Lewis.

Some days you're the bug, and some days your the windscreen.                   And some days, you're just a man with a gun.

A Hulkathon is an event where, during Hulkageddon, miners ask for donations to buy new hulks by spamming Jita local and the captain's quarters' TV.

Welcome to the 2012 Hulkathon. Later on we'll have performances by many of your favorite stars, but first we'd like to introduce you to one of the many miners your donations can help.

This is little Um'butu. As a young miner, he depended on the elders in his corporation to provide him with Hulks and other equipment. That changed this Hulkageddon, as his entire corporation's mining fleet was destroyed. Now Um'butu is forced to chew on rocks using the mining drones in this Vexor.

But hope is not lost. With your pledge of 200 isk a day, you can help little Um'butu purchase a new Retriever. In the future, with your continued support, he may one day be able to get back into a Hulk and provide for his family on his own. Won't you please help? Call the number on the bottom of your screen to send in your donation to this year's Hulkathon.

Once more the 2012 Hulkathon is helping poor astroids. We need you to make a difference today. With gift of little time and ammo you can make a large difference for not only the small astroids but the entire belt. You can make a difference in a astroids life. Your donation will ensure that a your astroid will recive quite restful home away from strip miners. With your donation you will recive a scan of your astroid with its volume, current market value, what its made of. You will recive nothing but the tears of the miner that you ganked. If you wish you can adopt as many astroids as you would like. Your ganks will post on kill board so you can show off the difference you made in a young astroid life to all your friends.

The two before you, funny and funnier. You had the chance to be even funnier than them. But, nooooo, you had to go off in a different direction and ended up at not funny at all.

Are we getting Jerry Lewis and Sting to perform this year?

I'm sure such a noble cause as Hulkathon would gain their support.

Poor Um'butu :(
