I was digging through the SWM Gamers Forums when I came across an old thread called “Interesting Topic #9 – RCM Booster Design”. Upon reading the thread (which can be found here: http://www.swmgamers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=10600 ) , I thought it would make a fun customizing competition. (Note: The original idea comes from The_Celestial_Warrior, I am simply recycling it into a competition.)

Here are the rules of the challenge, should you choose to accept it: (Some of these rules are based on those created by Deathwielded for the CCC’s).

1. Once you sign up, I will randomly select a set and draw a booster pack from that set. These 7 pieces are your RM’s; you come up with an original set of stats that is based on the original pieces. If this is a bit unclear, check the hyperlink above and see the original examples, and it should become obvious what I mean.

2. The following rules apply to the characters you create:

a. The character must be canon.
b. You may update any existing character you already have and/or create new ones.
c. Please place hyperlinks in this forum to make it easier to find your characters.
d. For the Unique character you pull, that character may not be another version of that
character (for example: if I pull Darth Vader, Sith Lord from RS, I cannot create another
version of Darth Vader using DVSL as the recommend mini). This is simply to encourage
you to be creative.

3. In order to win the contest, you must vote on the overall quality of the 7 sets of stats made by each creator. Voting will look like this: "I rated so-and-so’s customs (A) an 8, so-and-so’s customs (B) a 9, and so-and-so’s customs (C) a 7. My vote goes to so-and-so’s customs (B). Each winning vote counts as 1 point. Please feel free to comment on why you made your choice, (what you liked), but since there will be many pieces from each creator, you can just put your scores. You must vote for all the sets of stats entered in the contest and you may not rate or vote for your own set of stats.

4. The winner will be decided by how many points they receive (for example: so-and-so’s customs (B) received 3 votes and thus won because that was the most votes of anyone)

5. You may not change or update the entered character AFTER the deadline (from Saturday-Thursday you may get advice and change your character accordingly) on Friday. From today (12/28) until Thursday, you may get advice and update characters as needed. Once the deadline comes on Friday, you may not change or update your entered characters. Voting will be held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to determine the winner.

6. There is no prize for winning, so just have fun and do your best!

Here are your pieces and set harryg:

Revenge of the Sith:

Bail Organa
Ikotchi Tech Specialist
Gotal Fringer
Yuzzem
Wookiee Berserker
Super Battle Droid (ROTS 40)
Clone Trooper (ROTS 8)

As for your question about the Gotal, that's totally fine. The only real restriction on what you can create is the one about Uniques that states you cannot make another version of the Unique pulled (i.e. No new Vader if that's the Unique that was pulled).

I'd like to say that this was a great idea! I'm create customs that I never would have thought of touching with a long stick otherwise, and it most certainly is fun.
I just wish that it wasn't a competition, but oh well. At least now I have a new way of coming up with customs.

Thanks, it's nice to hear someone is enjoying it. I've enjoyed how it makes me think outside of what I usually would create. As for the competition, it's not like there is high pressure to win. This is mostly just for fun.

I'm interested but I need to ask, does the booster pack layout equal your pieces' order? In other words, does my submission have to match the orientation of the booster (1 R/VR, 2 UC, 3 Cs) or can they ALL be Uniques?

No, it doesn't matter. They could all be Uniques or they could all be Non-Uniques or any combination of the two.

I don't know. I think that would have made the concept more sound. Design your own booster and follow the normal rules of a booster. I'll pass in that case.

Have fun.
