Here are the Rules:
1. The character must be cannon and from the chosen faction. They can have affinity, but the character must start in the chosen faction.
2. You may update any existing versions you already have and/or create a new one. You may update/create several versions of the character but you must ultimately select 1 you wish to run with. (this must be done by the schedule below)
3. Place a hyperlink in this forum to make it easier to find your character. You can just post the stats or image here but if changes are needed it would be easier (and save space) if you just used a Hyperlink (If you don't know how to post Hyperlinks in a forum setting please ask and we will help you. It's not hard )
4. Please rate the characters in this contest, however don't be so base as to 1 bomb the other characters in this contest. This is a friendly contest, just have fun, be honest and do your best.
5. Voting will look like this: "I rated so-and-so(A) an 8, so-and-so(B) an 9, and so-and-so(C) a 7. My vote goes to so-and-so(B). (this vote counts as 1 point) Please feel free to comment on why you made your choice, (what you liked) or not and just put your scores.
6. Too make things fair you must vote in order to win the contest. You must vote for all characters entered in the contest and you may not rate or vote for your own character.
7. The character that is rated the highest in the Bloo Milk rating system will receive a bonus of 2 points. The winner will be decided by how many points they receive (for example: so-and-so(B) received 3 individual votes and received the bonus 2 for being the highest rated character for a total of 5 points)
8. you may not change or update the entered character AFTER the deadline (from Tuesday-Thursday you may get advice and change your character accordingly) Friday at midnight before any votes are cast is the deadline.
The schedule will be like this: Monday the winner of last weeks CCC will announce his choice for the character (including his faction), from Tuesday till Friday characters can be created/updated but on Friday you must have picked one character to submit. Then voting will be held on Saturday, Sunday and Monday until 4, Monday night the winner will be announced and the next character picked.

My apologies to my fellow customizers. I've been quite busy this weekend and will be swamped tomorrow which necessitates very short reviews.
Leia Organa Solo, Envoy of the New Republic 9.25
General Grievous
Very nice piece. My concern is the CE. Perhaps limit to followers?
Princess Leia, Mal'ary'ush 9.5
Lord Ball
Great Noghri boost and super cheap for stats. Renewal seems largely wasted.
Leia Organa Solo, New Republic Diplomat 9.25
Deathweilded
First part of CE would be great even on its own. WtS is fitting. Political Compromise might be tricky.
Leia Solo, Chief of State
saber1
What happened to the fun hair of youth, princess?

General_Grievous, Envoy of the New Republic 9 Synergy +4 for her might be a bit much, but tactician and the CE give reason to play her. Deathwielded, New Republic Diplomat 9 Lightsaber Attack just seems unnecessary at this point in the game (would have been great back in the days of WOTC). Should probably add unactivated to Political Compromise. saber1, Chief of State 9 Mal'ary'ush is pretty cool, if only the Noghri were more playable so it wouldn't be just flavorful.

Leia Organa Solo, Envoy of the New Republic
General Grievous
Tried to replicate the many New Republic adventures these three went on while giving Han and Luke more play.
Princess Leia, Mal'ary'ush
Lord Ball
Simple, fresh, fitting and powerful CE. Don't really think she needs renewal especially for her one power or cost level but otherwise bang on
8.9
Leia Organa Solo, New Republic Diplomat
Deathweilded
CE is almost to powerful but not having booming voice in the faction helps. Political Compromise is much better with the change now. Great force powers and WTS/AN are perfect fits.
9
Leia Solo, Chief of State
saber1
CE is a bit wordy and potentially confusing as to what counts as a faction and what doesn't, but cool and fitting idea. Really good choices in Force Powers and Abilities especially your new one.
8.8
VOTE: close one this week but I am going go give it to Deathweilded for the interesting idea of political compromise

Okay guys, I have to be honest, I'm not totally satisfied with how our customs turned out this week. I think we ALL could have done better, me included. I do think that (in hindsight) Leia in the New Republic is a hard piece to design. Lower costed? Good CE? Decent force powers? Decent Fighter? All of these factors make for a difficult time designing her. I know I struggled. Without further ado, the results of this weeks CCC!Lord_ball's Princess Leia, Mal'ary'ush 8.25,8.9,9.5  for an average of 8.88333General_Grievous' Leia Organa Solo, Envoy of the New Republic 8.75,9,9.25 for an average of 9saber1's Leia Solo, Chief of State 8.5,8.8,9 for an average of 8.76667Deathwielded's Leia Organa Solo, New Republic Diplomat 9,9,9.25 for an average of 9.08333 My entry this week, barley squeezes out on top of the ratings by an 8 hundredth of a percent! So my entry gets the additional 2 for a grand total of 3.

whoops! Looks like I just edited my post with my ratings! I usually just copy out the info I put into my voting post to save me some time and it looks like I just overwrote it.
I can rewrite it if you guys need me too.

These are the characters I'm considering: C3-P0, Mira, Darth Plageuis, Ferus Olin, Corran Horn, Allana/Amelia Solo, Abeloth, (no there would be a monster of a contest!) Kreia and Darth Malak.
Input?

Plagueis sounds fun, but we did Sith last week... Same for Malak. A lot of the choices fall in the same category as they are NR like this week... Kreia (of course, that might be Sith as well... Or have Sith as an option) looks like a very fun choice. Ah, good 'ol C-3PO. It'd be nice to see what people can do with him, but would there be enough options to make a good contest out of?
I would say Kreia, Ferus or Mira probably. I am unfamiliar with Abeloth though.

Since there seemed to be both confusion and concern regarding the CE, here's a bit of a breakdown.
"Allies are considered New Republic for purposes of allied commander effects. Any ally who would normally not be considered NR for commander effects (Fringe, brought in by commander effect, Yuuzhan Vong with Nei Rin) are now considered NR only to gain access to NR commander effects. Your "Fringe" can benefit from the New Republic Tactician's CE, or the CE of Mara Jade Skywalker JM. Allied commander effects with faction specific effects become New Republic specific effects. This gives all allies access to CEs such as that found on Nautolan Black Sun Vigo, Jabba Crime Lord, Nei Rin, Talon Karrde Info Broker (admittedly a bit awkward on this one and potentially overpowered), etc. This would work along the lines of the Yammosk War Coordinator Allies within 6 squares get +1 Attack for each faction in your squad. Starting with the NR, a cumulative +1 Attack is gained for each Faction represented. Add 1 for Mando (Rohlan Dyre), 1 for Fringe (Rohlan or an Uggie), 1 for Obi Padawan, etc. The first part of the CE only makes allies NR for other commander effects, they retain their original faction for this CE and therefore trigger the last portion."
I agree it ended up wordy, though I am uncertain how to streamline it at this point. Its meant to capture Leia's political skills at bringing diverse people together to work toward a common goal and/or join the New Republic.

Ah, that makes more sense now, thanks Saber1.
I think we will hold off on Abeloth since Pego isn't familiar with her and thus would be able to enter.
I had my own reservations against picking her anyways.
I'm gonna go with Kreia
