Welcome to the Ultimate Star Wars Miniatures Custom Stats Competition!
Round 2: The Galactic Senate
I would like to welcome everyone to the second official round of the Ultimate Star Wars Miniatures Custom Stats Competition. I hope that this competition will compel the creative crop of this community to pit there ideas against each other in order to win the Ultimate Star Wars Miniatures Custom Competition.
1. Each participant may enter up to 4 characters in the Ultimate Star Wars Miniatures Custom Stats Competition. These characters must relate to the theme of the week or they will not be judged. Only if the Bonus is in effect may each participant enter in more than 4 characters (and only to the limit specified by the Bonus)
2. You will have exactly one week to post your entries. At 4:00 PM Australian Eastern Standard Time, each round will close for the judging phase. The winners for that round will be announced the same day. No entry will be accepted after 4:00 PM AEST unless specified by myself.
3. You are allowed to edit your entries as many times as you wish before the judging phase. If you edit your characters during the judging phase, your entries will be disqualified.
4. Your characters will be judged on: a). their relevance to Star Wars, b). the balance that they maintain, and c). the creativeness of the character. The Ultimate Star Wars Miniatures Custom Stats Competiton has only two official judge at this time: Darth Mavoc and Uggie Demo.
5. Each round will have a poll with three options. These options are topics for the next round. At the end of the judging phase, the topic with the most votes will be the theme for the following round.
6. This is a civil forum. We are a civilized people. Please keep your blasters holstered and all inflammatory remarks to yourself. Failure to do so may end up in point deduction or disqualification for a round.
Point System and Ways to Win
Each round contains a total of four ways to win. I will specify two specific characters in the opening post of each round. These characters are optional and you may wish to not make them. However, the people who do enter these characters will have their entries judged and will earn points should they win.
The winner of each category judged will receive three points; the runner-up will receive 2 points. Everyone who does not win but participates in the round will receive 1 point. As of now, there is no set point total to win. However, I will say that the first person to reach 77 points (or higher) might receive something special.
This Week's Round
This week's round is titled The Galactic Senate. Your job is to make characters related to the Galactic Senate. Good luck, and may the Force be with you!
This Week's Bonus!
Some rounds of the Ultimate Star Wars Dream Card Competition will have a bonus in which participants may earn extra points. This week's bonus will be done in a different way. Instead of creating an extra character, the way to earn bonus points this round is to have your card feature the ability that I am thinking of. This ability can boost damage. Anybody who has this ability will receive 3 points.
This Week's Ways to Win
1. Best Trade Federation Representative
2. Best Senator Palpatine
3. Best use of Diplomat
4. Best use of Internal Strife

Notes:
Trade Federation Representative: Represents Lott Dod. Filibuster represents the stalling tactics in the senate used to avoid having to do anything about Naboo.
Senator Palpatine: Lackluster combat abilities for emergency defense, he did have a lighsaber in his sleeve, after all. No confidence vote to represent his manipulation to get Valorum out of the way.
Senator Garm Bel Iblis: Represents his overall tactical prowess.
Senator Cal Omas: I fudged this one a bit. Alpha Red represents the bioweapon used when he was Head of State. Internal Strife represents his many quarrels with the Jedi as he grew older. Opportunist represents his reactionary nature. Alpha Red and Internal Strife represent his time as Head of State, but I included them for flavor.

When voting, can I vote by the individual categories? As in I like someone's use of diplomat, but like a separate person's Palpatine?

-RevRevGar I think you're welcome to PM Darth Mavoc and Uggie Demo to let them know which ones you like, but I think that they are the only judges right now...
