I'm open to anything, as far as a forums group or facebook, but I think we should have the capability of live chat too.

Skype, MSN, AIM and so on all have group chat.

I like the ideas posted here, the contest is fun and it would be really cool to have a mini or two in the Vassal mod. I really need to finish my DotF!

Edit - it might be a cool idea to use the Epic prize customs in Vassal as well

Good point re: Epic.

Darth Sal brings up another point, about "finishing DotF": We don't want to drag things out, but do we want to give people a certain amount of time to get in entries?

*cough* VASSAL *cough*

btw have we all even decided what the contest is going to be about? I have a few ideas but it sounds like people are hinting towards a conclusion already. Am i missing something?

Maybe give it another 2 weeks or so to let the last bits get in? That will also give us time to coordinate how we will be handling all this.

Vassal can work, assuming we all have it, which I think we likely do.

Skype has a conference call feature that is easy to use. We use it for V-set discussions and for RPG. You can have as many people as you want on a call. It also allows easy group chat, and you can combine chat with a call so it's probably the best suggestion.

One entry per person, per character.

I won't be able to post a whole set (still trying to wrap my head around creating a Mk2 Destroyer Droid) but I will have probably 6 more posted before the end of the week if there is some time left to post them.

Hey, guys. I'm on vacation for the next few days, so my internet time is very limited, but I'll try to check in at least once a day.

On the other hand, I bet almost everyone else is busy at GenCon, so maybe I'll be the only one checking in. :) Have fun, folks!

If you added pics with the HTML tag of [ IMG ] you have to change the tag to [ img ]. BlooMilk became very picky about that.
(remove spaces between the brackets [] and the img tag). Hope this helps. Just copying the link from sites like photobucket doesn't work anymore.

BM me and tell me which pieces they are. I'll be sure to add them, probably over the week-end.

I got 2 already up to the DotF board (Revan and Bastilla) and I got 2 more incoming (OR Tech Specialist and Jawa Chief) once I get the pictures up and running.

Will the contest be announced? Is there an entry deadline?

I say lets go with August 31st, that way the deadline is the end of the month and gives plenty of time to make sure all entries are in.

It will also give the rest of us time to figure out how and when we will be judging everything, what chat program or where/when to meet about it and so on. We'll be organized by then for sure.
