I've slept in a tub a couple times before, so that's certainly do-able.

I fell asleep in a bathtub once. I nearly drowned too. I woke up with my head under the water coughing and sputtering.

Good luck with that.

Dude you don't sleep in it when it is full. You put towels and blankets in it and then sleep in it. I used to like doing it when I was little.

I don't fit in bathtubs so well anymore, I guess it's a good thing I have my own bed for C3.

Yeah I'd like to see Greivous,  Durge, and Asajj Ventress make some cameos. Though you do have to be careful how much you use them and who they interact with. One thing that kinda bugs me about EU is a lack of original core characters. Many of the sources will introduce a couple new guys, but they somehow meet up with every other main character. It makes the galaxy seem too small. With trillions of people in it, they need more people who don't interact with Luke, Anakin, Boba Fett, or whoever else. And all the heroes and villians wouldn't necessarily know each other, they would probably know of each other if they are famous enough but, a lot of times don't deal directly with each other. I guess what I'm trying to say is Rykrof has already dealt directly with Dooku and mainly of the Republic guys, so if you plan on using Durge or Asajj, use them sparingly. Don't have them interact with Rykrof much, if at all. Maybe he sees them but doesn't have dialogue or something. I'm sure you'll work it out.

Keep it up!

Woah. She is damn fine. Where is she from? (other than Heaven )

Arrogant, and obtaining 50,000 posts as quickly as possible at the expense of ANY level of quality is what Rebelscum admires perhaps?   

Why the hell is he still around? They complain about post padding, theri own mod is worse than anyone else. He falmes member ands bickers all the time. I've seen him close other people's threads becasue he wanted to start his own on the same topic.

I can't believe him. JJ you are of the nicest guys I have seen on any forum. You treat everyone with respect and are very curtious, even when you are being flamed. It is truly admirable. I don't think I have ever heard you say anything bad to anyone. Philip has lost ti completely if he thinks you and the other "nice" JD members are the root of all the "problems" at RS. In the last couple of days he has gotten rid of most of the members that held that community together. He is just shooting himself in the foot.

It looks fantastic! CHEWIE!! This is officially EU in my book now, it is no longer just fan-fiction. I liked this chapter a lot. There were some great visuals and the ending is perfect! It really got me excited for the next one.

There are a couple places I could use a bit more exlaination or a new scene. At the very begining Ithor's importance doesn't ever really get established. What do both sides want with them? The Jedi and Rykrof just kind of arrive all of a sudden and there is a Seperatist prensence that could have been explained a bit better. I think some kind of breifing scene on the gunship or on Coruscant at the beginning could help explain a lot of this.

Why was Sora Bulq trying to turn Obi-Wan and Anakin? He kind of came of nowhere too and you don't really know why he is there. Maybe a scene with him a Dooku convering about Ithor's importance would be good, if you are looking for suprise,you could keep his back to the camera or have him just out of picture, it amy add some suspence too if you know there is someone really bad there but don't know when he going to strike at our heroes.

Great customs too, I really like that Sora Bulq, he is very well done. When does he turn dark? Is it somewhere else in EU or does it start here?

Keep it up! I can't wait for Chap 10!

Takes traffic to make traffic...  Customs here, customs there, it's all good but the point of the FFURG FForums Customizing Community is to bring all customizers together at a site maintained and moderated by customizers with separate sections for separate areas of customizing...

Do other sites have that? 

The problem is, the other site you're hinting at mainly I think CHEWIE, is that the people there want more eyes on their stuff rather than to hear honest criticism...  They don't want to hear a critique, but just to get a "Very Nice!" with every reply...

The only way the community and customizing will grow is if customizers try to be a tighter-knit group.  It doesn't mean a site's forums like here at Jedi Defender aren't good for discussion or showing off one's wares, but it doesn't help customizing any if everyone flocks to one forum at a collecting site just to "show off" their stuff...

Hell, half the time anyone makes a criticism "over yonder", it degenerates into a fight between people, or it simply goes unnoticed and never responded to because half the people there don't want to be told they're not perfect.

Sad, but true state of the hobby that FFURG is/was trying to remedy.

That's why I love FFURG, everyone there is a customizer and you can really get some good feedback. I had made a custom ship a while back and I posted it there and I got some really great suggestions on how to make it better, I took those suggestions to heart and I like the ship soo much more now. I think it has made me a better customizer, I definitely have some room for improvement but that's what FFURG is for.

When I used to post my customs at RS, I would only get like 8 replies, and almost all of them would be "cool" or "nice custom". It was uselss many of the people there posted only for  their own post count, not to actually help the other customizers. Most of them didn't even do any customizing, they would just come in because it was an easy way to bost their post count. Of course there were always a few good replies, and those would be from people who were also at FFURG.

When fellow customizers help you on your customs it really does give a great sense of community; something I've noticed other custom boards seem to be lacking, except in a few core members, that also happen to belong to FFURG.  And no one seems to have trouble taking criticsm, it is so much more enjoyable when we can discuss our mutual craft and not have to argue about who is the better customizer. I actually heard someone call Phruby jealous because he made a critque of and already great figure, (that would have made it a perfect  custom) I'm glad thre is a site like FFURG leading the customizining revolution!

Viva la FFURG!

I won't post my who list here but Including a plane ticket to C3 and my C3 4 day pass, I'm up to $439 for the year. That number is going to double by the end of the month, and once I get another job this summer it'll grow pretty quickly.
