A Force FX Lightsaber might make a good prize.
A little expensive, but possible to reach that kind of ammount with donations, I'd think. Not really a prize that can be divided, but not much can be. Winners could share it, I suppose.

Few more questions.

Will we know who made which entry after voting is finished? And, about prizes. Would there only be a prize for first place, or for first, second, and third?

Once the voting is over, we can announce who did which projects and everybody can discuss freely.

In terms of your question regarding prizes... whatever. Discussing that kind of stuff is what this thread is all about. (in addition to announcing the contest and giving the rules. wink )

... Herm.... I was actually kidding about the T-Shirt idea.. but whatever floats people's boats.


And yeah Ryan, the ForceFX Lightsabers would be pretty sweet, however, I really don't know how sharing one of those works. I suppose in some cases.. where you have one person really heading up the project.. and they're the one who's -choreographing- it, that might work. You could give that person that prize.. and maybe even some cheap side gifts to be given to others involved.

However, I think in a lot of cases.. like possibly mine wink .. you'll have people equally collaborating. I know my possible collaborator, who's a wannabe Sansweet, is gonna wanna keep it on his shelf. cry And there's probably no way he'll let me run and choreograph the whole thing on my own, either. So in other words, no just for my benefit, but for those who may very likely have similar cases, there may be more viable solutions. Unless of course there’s any chance we could dish out enough cash for two.. then if contest with a one on one wins... each combatant can get one. In the case of more then two combatants, maybe a more group oriented prize.. or multiple cheaper prizes can be given. thinking

I was also pondering about non-replica sabers. Like a Park Saber or Park Saber Kit, so the winner(s) can have something a little more unique, that they could use in an actual fanfilm. However, they are a bit more pricey.. probably too pricey. In fact, you could buy two replicas for the price of one saber from Park Sabers.

Also.. and stop me if I'm thinking too much.. but maybe you could give the prize option of either one or two replicas, or.... multiple scaled replicas, for larger groups who want to split the prize. Yeah, I know the scaled replicas don't encourage quite as large of a bite, but they're still perddy. grin

Hehe I like the replica idea. I've always wanted a Mace Windu saber and I'm too cheap to buy one and can't wait for Metals II to build one tongue Must....win...

Anywho, my opponent ripped a bunch of tendons in his ankle so we can't start on our entry for 6 weeks. Stupid skateboarder rolling_eyes tongue But we've been talking about ideas and so far we got some cool ones grin

Well just checking in, good luck everyone! MTFBWY

Oh and rogue, if you took 81 down to Lincoln, you would have gone right through Norfolk here!

What about just transferring the money to the winner's PayPal account? No, wait, that's stupid - that'd be like getting paid to make a fanfilm.

I'd be happy with a "lousy t-shirt" and a little respect. Maybe a title on the forums here; possibly even a special icon.

My thoughts. grin

Spiff, your pony's in the mail.

Good luck with that respect thing. tongue



I kinda like the "Lousy T-shirt" thing. Maybe the winner(s) could have a temporary title and/or name coloring privileges for a little while. Something cheap and fun.
