Jacob Nion Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I see no problem in talking about quality of entries. Everyone wants to increase his skills and as long as it is constructive and polite nobody has a reason to be upset. Judging is not only about the build but also about the story and presentation. Other thing: I would rather pilot a pod racer than doing sabotage because of my backround story in my last episode's entry. Quote
MKJoshA Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 The betting aspect has me confused, but I guess I'll figure it out eventually. Also, why can't humans pilot pod racers? Wasn't Anakin a human? In episode 1 Qui-Gon tells Anakin that it is very rare for a human to be a podracer because it takes skills humans don't have. He says that the only way for a human to podrace is to use force skills. That's why we aren't allowing human pilots for the pods. Quote

Been awhile since I watched that episode. Thanks! Quote
BEAVeR Posted March 14, 2015 Author Posted March 14, 2015 I've set up a group PM for both factions, so that you can discuss your secrets plans there. We're still discussing other options, but now you can seriously begin planning for this episode. Don't wait too long to place those first bets! The PM was sent to the top players from both factions and the ones that expressed interest in participating here. If you were not added to the PM, but wish to participate in the conversation and planning for this episode, let us know in this thread, and you will be added as long as there are still places available. Let the scheming begin! Quote
VK-318 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I would be quite interested in joining the PM and participating in that way, since my episode builds and associated freebuilds are already under construction. Quote
Commander Beltar Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I'm interested in joining the PM group, as I should be able to participate in is episode. ~Beltar Quote
James Wellington Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) I'm also very interested in joining the PM group. Edited March 14, 2015 by James Wellington Quote
Kuat Drive Yards Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I'd also like to be part of the PM. Quote
Artizan Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) I didn't get any pm's, I feel offended. edit: It seems I did get the pm, sorry. Edited March 16, 2015 by Artizan Quote
floed Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I am interested too, can you add me on the group PM please ? thanks a lot Quote
BEAVeR Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 As a reaction to what has been said in the feedback thread, we've decided to change the core rules. For players whose episode build makes it to the second stage of judging, the scored of the two rounds will still be added together, but they will be divided by 2.5 instead of 2. this makes the maximum amount of XP you can gain by participating in an episode equal to 20 instead of 25. We hope that this lessens the big gaps in XP, and makes it easier for new builders to climb to the top of the ranking. This will be so for this episode and every episode that follows. Quote
Jakorin Swiftsword Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 A podrace, huh? It'll be fun to get in on that action. Quote
Lord Tyrus Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Any chance the deadline could be extended by a couple of days, I'm on holiday from this Saturday to next, so if it can't be, I may need someone to post my build for me... Quote
LucasLaughing Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I wouldn't mind seeing a deadline extension either ... April is ended up busier than I expected. Quote
Tariq j Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Same here, I've just realised how quickly this contest has gone. Quote
BEAVeR Posted April 12, 2015 Author Posted April 12, 2015 Due to a heavy sandstorm, preparations for the podrace have been heavily delayed. In order to have a proper event with enough participants, the pod race organization has decided to postpone the race by two weeks. The deadline is now May 3rd. Quote
Tariq j Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Good to see we have a deadline extension. Funnily enough, during the filming of TPM, there was actually a heavy sandstorm in Tunisia which damaged some podracing props and caused filming to be delayed. Quote
Lord Tyrus Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) Phew, great news! It's so hard to find wifi here, and I had to buy a drink in a local pub to use their internet (well that was my excuse). Thanks again! Edited April 15, 2015 by Lord Tyrus Quote
BEAVeR Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 The podrace is taking place very soon! You have untill 12:00 GMT (for reference, right now it's 20:05 GMT) to post your builds! If you still want to change the bets, you have to to it fast and take the people who've already posted into account: they can't switch places! So let the tension mount and the podrace (almost) begin! Quote
MKJoshA Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 A late entry that I want people to enjoy, but which will not be counted for the Rebels overall score. Quote
Lord Tyrus Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Looks great josh. Also great you didn't post it! Quote
WickNole Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) Hoping that the results will arrive here soon. Edited May 14, 2015 by WickNole Quote
Graham Gidman Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Hoping that the results will arrive here soon. Haha, no kidding... Very anxious over here. Quote
