	hmmm... maybe we should combine all the threads I've been making about WEG d6 books into a single thread? Less filling, tastes great? -----signature----- Create happy mediums: Free prozac to all psychics & Jedi I'm met 6yo adults and 36yo children Still working toward Ni-Kyu Go Ju Ryu

	remember when we had that create-a-npc contest? I can't find the link, but I won. Wasn't much participation, but I liked it.

	How about a challenge thread? One person picks a character to challenge other people to create, either from canon or something of their own creation. The best, or most efficient build (or whatever criteria the challenger lays down i.e. most damage dealt in a round, etc.) is the winner, and then the winner gets to lay down the next challenge and so on. Also, how about a request line? Say a GM has a game to run next week, they need stats badly, but they're too busy writing up the campaign, and these stats aren't covered in the book (ie Luke Skywalker stats, circa Fate of the Jedi era). If any of the other posters has the time or the will they can whip up the stats. -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	I like both of those ideas, myself. There was a great build for a batman-esque character (in SW universe) a while back. -----signature----- Create happy mediums: Free prozac to all psychics & Jedi I'm met 6yo adults and 36yo children Still working toward Ni-Kyu Go Ju Ryu

	I don't think the problem is ideas, we are gamers after all and I'm sure we have plenty of awesome ones. I think we're just lazy and waiting for the other person to do something

	Yeah notice how no one had created any of those threads yet? I have an excuse though, between my CR duties, the game I run (which I just realized I haven't posted on in a week ) and world of warcraft I have about 5 minutes a day to check these boards. :P Now I have to go find time for my game, before a meeting at in a little over an hour. -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	I've been hoping that people would create the threads they are suggesting. I don't know enough about the RPG stuff to run the contests or start a thread on it, but would support someone else going for it. Maybe I should just go pick up some RPG books and read up in my spare time too -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr

	It's a fun hobby, and doesn't cost much more than mini's (might be cheaper in fact), plus it doesn't take much longer than 2 or 3 high-point mini's games. Try it one of those games nights, and all ya need is the core rulebook. Post on your fanforce and you can probably find someone who knows how to play these things to run it for you. -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	I've played it once before, with the last set of rules. Sadly my FF is so tiny that I know no one it does RPG. Though, I do have a couple friends who play online, maybe I'll try to sit in on one of their sessions or something like that. My issue is time as well. Between my TFN stuff, minis, work, and the classes I'm taking there's not a lot of extra time. -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr

	Hola RPGers! If you guys decide to put up the "build an NPC" contest, can we RPFers play too? My writers are aching for contests, and I just haven't had the focus to put one up yet... Plus the idea of characters is something that hadn't dawned on me for whatever reason... Do you LARP/Mini folk write up characters via sheets and such? -I_H -----signature----- In rode the Lord of the Nazgûl.

I'm on spring break this coming week, I'll see if I can research enough to write a contest up Minis people occasionally will write up stats for custom figs but we don't use character sheets. Generally we take an existing mini's stats and adjust. -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr

	First "contest" thread is up. Build character challenge thread. I openned the challenge with stat's for a Green Lantern. Winner gets to pick the next character for someone to try to build. -----signature----- Create happy mediums: Free prozac to all psychics & Jedi I'm met 6yo adults and 36yo children Still working toward Ni-Kyu Go Ju Ryu

	Well, talked to my FF/Minis group and I think we're going to try out the RPG this summer. Here goes nothing -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr

	Awesome news. If some people back out before then and you still want to keep your numbers up, then check the bulletin board at your gaming store. There might be someone looking for a gaming group, or you can post that you're looking for players. If you're worried about bringing strangers in, then either host the first game at the gaming shop, or a coffee shop, or meet up with the person a few times beforehand as a group for movies, or whatever. -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	Do you have a GM or anyone who has played before?
