Sheez, these bunch of bozos talk a lot, why do I even find myself in the company of these goons? All I wanted was to have my damned TV show back on air , and now I'm gonna be involved in some nuke business?? Finding these undercover agents will be a tough task for sure, especially in our first day as we've only gathered together just now, unless someone has a suspicious slip-up... There we go, something to look into. But we have to be mindful of our thoughts, they betray us. We have to search our feelings about this. Why am I suddenly talking like some sort of ancient space religion?

Ugh. (did I just sound just like a giant troll prisoner there? ) So you guys start without me since I have to take my beauty nap and Mr. Happy Face is already getting sleepy too. Now is the time I need you lullabies Meister!

I split each of the Venator and ESB composite images into two, so the images are better now I think.

Now that you mentioned it, I'll throw out a suggestion in the discussion table: How about Heroica get its own subforum here? It has become larger than anticipated, and I would assume it will expand more as more quests are conducted by new quest masters in the near future. As it is right now, it has already taken over the territory once lorded over by the Mafia games, so why not give it its own space right (Heroica Kingdom)? If it keeps its pace, there might come a time where the current mafia game threads will get buried deep into Page 2! Not a far-fetched possibility isn't it? Don't get me wrong I have nothing against Heroica, I'm even happy to see that it has been a huge success in giving another form of active participation and enjoyment for the members, I'm just suggesting this with the intention of possibly organizing the forum in the foreseeable future which is beneficial to both the mafiosos and the questors. Just something to think about.

Now that was long, but thank you for this lengthy comprehensive feedback, you really were great as a host on this one Hinck (as always) even with your hectic busy life. It was actually just the 'luck of the draw' in the meal cart. Right from Day 1 we did not got any kill actions, only defensive abilities which we tried to keep to ourselves as much as possible throughout the game, knowing it's advantageous to our survival. It would have been a totally different ballgame if we acquired some killing actions along the way. So that was just our strategy most of the game, play defensively and with a little bit of bad luck from the El Pltns early in the game, some metagaming gang war between Saturn and Venus, and Pies allying with us in the end, we managed to get through all of this. Yes we pretty much flew under the radar but we still did our best behind the scenes in figuring out the meal abilities and successfully using our night actions to our advantage. Well looks like you were really left in the dark with regards to the behind-the-scenes dealings and backstabbing eh? Come to think of it, I wondered why we didn't invite you to our writeboard in the first place. Well, as far as Mars was concerned, this is what happened: Day 2 - Draggy is up for lynching, and would probably would've been voted out until... - def, who instinctively knew that this is an all-scum game right from the very start, suggested it was best to team up with another gang and just take out the other two before going head-to-head with each other, and he proposed the idea to ally with Venus, with saving Draggy's megablocks from the voting as our selling point for their gang to trust us. - So instead of easily going with the majority of simply voting out Draggy, we made a bold move and decided to side with Venus, hence our votes for Shadows. - Surprisingly, it was Venus who failed to give their part of the deal, though in hindsight Fangy's failure to vote was understandable due to him being busy IRL and it was his crucial vote that was missed and led to a no lynch on that day. We were disappointed since our planned was foiled at that time and we 'felt betrayed' by Venus who we genuinely tried to make an alliance with. Night 2 - After the lynch-less Day 2, both Shadows and Draggy approached our gang and started a myriad of lies (we have no way of telling the truth so it's all lies to us! ). Shadows told us that Draggy sold us out, and we should vote him the next day. Draggy then said Shadows is playing us, blah-blah-blah.. We didn't know who to believe at that point. - Interestingly, when Shadows PMed us, Fangy was included in our PM, so we thought he misread that Fangy is with us and not Cam. We didn't correct Shadows, knowing we could use Cam as a "secret weapon". - And our "secret weapon" did live up to the expectation as Shadows tried to kill Cam that night (who we presume he thought was part of Venus?) only to get himself killed via the PGO. Day 3 - Fangy (who we thought was the Neutral at that point), PMed us telling us he's "working with" with Venus and we should continue our alliance with them. Even with reluctance and most probably due to Fangy's diplomacy, he gained our trust and we re-allied ourselves with Venus even if we felt they didn't fully cooperate with us the first time. We voted our Rick that day and continued our alliance up to... Day 5 - During the aftermath of the bloodbath that drastically reduced the inmates in half, Pies contacted us (me and Scouty) since he knew it was best to ally with the two of us instead of the lone survivors of each gang. So that was our game plan back then, the 3 of us vs. the 3 of them. - Learning from a certain Harriet from BBII on 'not to tell the whole truth to your alliances', I made a white lie to Pies telling him that Scouty had the PGO even if I had it. And lo and behold, I was surprised that Flit targeted to kill me that night and he got was killed instead. It's either Flit had no idea I had the PGO and just took a blind chance with me OR Pies told the 'other group' that I was vulnerable that night and hence the best target to get killed?!? I don't actually know what happened there, but we were happy to take our second successful PGO defensive kill. Day 6 leading to the Conclusion - Initially I got the Random Inventor meal (and planned on inventing a protective vest) and Scouty had the PGO so we were pretty confident that we'll survive to the end, but for some reason Hinck overlooked a minor error on the meal order so I had to take the Bomb instead. That pretty much killed my chances of surviving, and it did led to my death in the Conclusion. But I'll still take the team win even if I have wanted to survive. - And knowing now that Pies planned to mess with us after allying with us, I think it was sweet justice that he forgot to send his night action and he got killed instead. See, sometimes the 'good guys' do finish first the game. Well I hope that gives you an idea on what happened on the Mars side of things.

LOL. What's even funnier is even Boba (jedi hater) and Grievous (frustrated jedi wannabe) are lining up to become one!

Glad you liked it! I see it too, for some reason I made them all the same way in Photoshop yet the ANH one seems to have the clearest image. Probably because the other two have more images fit on the template and therefore resulted in lower resolution? I'll try to look at it and probably fix it later. Hmmmm, I skimmed over the topic and downloaded/saved all the posted builds on that thread, I might've probably missed it. If I have the time I'll try to include yours (but that would take some re-layouting). Well, I personally chose that pic since I think the view is better on that shot showing the guts of the Taun-taun. I'll probably keep it that way. And thanks for the feedback guys! If I missed out on something just let me know.

Surely I don't think it is that hard to grasp the concept of a Community Build. Yes EB is a community and essentially all MOCs posted here are meant in the spirit of community sharing. But a community build distinguishes itself as a distinct special activity wherein different builders agree to build and share MOCs under a common theme with an option of completion within a specified amount of time, whereas a normal/regular build is an individual effort at the builder's own time and theme of choice. EB has been witness to a lot of CBs before here, from the current Historical Guild CB to the three (and soon to be four) LDD Relay Community Builds. I hope that clarifies things.

This is simply a topic where we could discuss everything related to Star Wars Community Builds, and as a reference for all previous/completed CBs. The cut-off dates are decided by the Community Build leader. ACPin set a cutoff date since he's planning on leading multiple CBs, so it doesn't make sense to submit an entry that is already months passed. And I'm not sure what you meant about not being able to post a MOC from the movies again?!? Everyone is free to post their MOCs here in the forum regardless of whether it's part of a community build or not. Community Building is NOT about tags. Remember the true essence of joining a community build - that is sharing one's creations for athe fun and spirit of a common-themed group build.

Who you lookin' at? Let's get this over with so I can return to hunting those who cancelled my TV show. Mr. Happy Face eyes are icthin'!

Updated the first post with compilation of all Community Build entries.

The staff are discussing this and we'll likely implement a new 'measure' to prevent this. But like what def and Khorne said, just don't click the links these spammers are posting and simply report them. Your friendly staff members are standing by to take your orders do the 'cleaning'. And thanks for all those who tirelessly report these to us, without you we wouldn't be able to combat these spammers polluting our site.

Kim and the ol' timers.

Indeed there is. Merged! Since I wasn't around then yet, here's my first SW set: Acquired this during my poor old college years and I had to save my allowance just to get this.

The first community build was really great with lots of fantastic entries, I really enjoyed following that CB back then. With that, I'll consider handing out the tags to the previous participants. (It's all part of grand scheme of Star Warsifying the Eurobricks Universe. ) It's bound to happen, after the OT, then PT, then CW. "There can be no one to stop us this time!"

Yeah, that was what I meant. Yes, I could see it now. Collecting or selling these or both?

Because you didn't pay for them, "they're" gone!

There you go.

Ok I'll work on it later, and probably create a separate Discussion Topic dedicated for Community Builds.

And we're cooking up another new feature for the blog, so stay tuned!

Say what?? LXFs courtesy of ADHO15 (4488, 7778) and penguinz (7965)

Counting your chicks already when the eggs haven't hatched yet? I suggest everyone to focus on making a solid contribution to the CBs and make these minor tag rewards as simply the icing on the cake.

The ironic part is you're an Empire fan yet you have a Rebel fig avatar. But there you go!
