Star Wars Community is proud to announce its very own Photoshop game, inspired by the version in YJCC. Users will be photoshopping images with a Star Wars theme. The SWC Photoshop Game thread will post soon with the game starting on Monday. All interested Photoshoppers should swing by and check it out.

Classic Trilogy has got CT Trivia signups, no game bans! (Where's the fun in that?)

Check out the thread on the New Star Wars Fan Comic in Fan Sites. These guys are doing a fantastic job at both updating their site frequently but also with the work itself! Awesome artists and great people to talk to.

Don't forget to check out The JCC's Top 100 in the Senate - JCC's Greatest People of the Last 100 years. Voting is underway now!


You've got the contract in Literature. What would you do if you had three hardcovers and three paperbacks a year for four years? Want post-LOTF books, Dark Times, and a big Old Republic series plus some post-ROTJ fill-ins? Want twenty different authors to write? Well, you'll have to make compromises that show just exactly what you want most. Give the subject, and the author if you have one in mind.

NaNo (National Novel Writing Month) is over! Head over to the NaNo thread in Fan Fic Resource to see the final wordcounts.


The new Wii is out! Go to Games: Videogames and see what people are saying about it.

The year is almost over, and with the World Cup, the Olympics, and many other sporting events this year, it's been a big one. Make sure you head to The Arena and tell us your favorite sporting moment from 2006.

Sign-ups have started for Bluffin' Balderdash in Census & Games! The first game recently came to a close with JediVegeta holding on to the win in a very tight game. Player comments ranged from "Excellent game everyone. I had fun" to "great new game and a lot of fun to participate in." Actually, they were quite similar all 'round.



The 7th and final book is getting closer and the discussion (and spoilers!) are heating up on Harry Potter. Go check Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix thread out in SFF: Films and TV, Harry Potter Book Seven Speculation in SFF: Books and Comics,
and Harry Potter Chapter by Chapter discussion in the Amphitheatre.

 

Wow, this looks really good, roo. Lots of cool stuff going on and I like the way you presented it. Thanks.

 

Woohoo - My thread got a mention

On another point, I'm really enjoying these updates.

 

Uh, where did you get that idea?
Or if it's true, why wasn't I informed?

 

Oh, wait! That's right, you guys do hand out game bans. Maybe it's the PT game that doesn't.


In that case:

Classic Trilogy has got CT Trivia signups. Game bans! (And there's nothing more fun than getting banned!)

 

I guess it slipped through AtB's fingers, but I'd also like to add a mention for Bluffin' Balderdash in Census & Games! The first game recently came to a close with JediVegeta holding on to the win in a very tight game. Player comments ranged from "Excellent game everyone. I had fun" to "great new game and a lot of fun to participate in." Actually, they were quite similar all 'round.

The new and updated game begins at the end of the weekend. Be on the lookout!

Very nice information here in this thread. :D I love the simple yet purpose-filled graphic at the top as well.

 

Yes. Yes it hand out game bans. Every time. Oh yes, there is nothing more fun than getting banned. Let me tell you.

 

Updated with a couple things.

 

Superb - thanks for the Fan Sites mention!

 

No game bans?! Sweet! Sign me up.

 

The banner that was created for this is also a nice addition, you made it Rhonda?

 

I did.

 

Cool, like I said, it's a nice touch and it's small details like that which show the amount of time and effort you have put into this new thing. Great job Rhonda, much appreciated.

BTW, I just noticed that this is probably the longest post by you, and probably also the only entire thread here, without any flirting by you!

Are you okay?

 

The flirting is implied, I'm sure.

 

E_S and I wanted to remind everyone that there are 4 days left for the JCC's Top 100 being hosted by the Senate.

So far, we have an interesting group of nominees.
