@ Black Six: R-really? Guess I didn't see it; I've only been back for about a week.

@Tillius: Sorry, didn't know it was so old, haha.

@thebeggerpie: Man, I need to just delete this blog post. Just saw it "announced." Guess it was old news as well.

-Mef

I'd be glad to have you. Sounds like a character that would fit in well.

-Mef

Is it written, Kray? If the judging has moved elsewhere, could someone notify me?

-Mef

Well, I'm leaving the RPG, but I'll still judge these characters. So, keep 'em coming, guys.

-Mef

Say wah? You leavin'?

-Mef

I think August the 20th is a great deadline. I mean, it's almost an entire month...

Yeah, we can use your help as a judge, 'Da Boss.

PM them to me, please, Emissary. I'll then share it with the other judges on the 21st.

-Mef

Yes, send your profiles to your's truly and I'll share them with Tyler and whoever else may judge.

-Mef

I don't really care if it's premade, but for it to fit into the role the best I think it would be wise to make a new character.

-Mef

So, that's atleast two more judges we need. How about Tyler (if he wants to) being a judge and someone else?

-Mef

I can be a judge since I'm not on the team, if you'd like.

-Mef

If you mean the white one, then I agree that the torso looks completely crazy and silly. It just doesn't look like it fits with the build, but maybe it does look better in person.

-Mef

Rip Van Winkle him sounds interesting... I'm up for anything.

-Mef

My character has been approved and is unleashed in the game. Can't wait to RP with you all!

-Mef

@Ben: Well, they don't worship the clones at all. Remember, you're talking about the circle of Mandos, not the entire race. And, I don't think they say the Jedi are completey evil. Etain, Zey, and others are great friends of the group and are treated as equals, just they're views are sometimes thought of as evil. And, again, it is not said that Mandos are the best.

Okay, we can discuss it there now. Your move.

@DeeVee: BLASPHEMY!!!

-Mef

Yeah, it's rather fun. Thank you for debating!

Well, the whole point is that her novels aren't like most other Expanded Universe media Mandos. The Mandos portrayed in her novels are something almost completely different if you think about it.

-Mef

@Ben: Ah, the freedom.

And, that's pretty much what the Jedi are if you think about it. Abducting children to make sure they live a "perfect" life in their little cult of "peace keepers." It's not fair and it's not right to basiclly kidnap a kid and force it into your own religion with no freedom what-so-ever.

I followed the show until Season 4. I know that one or two die out of every few thousand, but it's not in realistic numbers of how the casualties are nor their tactics at times. (Mainly the Jedi's tactics).

I've never seen it say that the army is made up of 30,000 troops, so I don't know where you got that from. I do know she mentions a few hundred thousand somewhere, a ltitle bit more than 30,000.

Yeah, I'm just saying my thoughts. You don't even have to reply to them.

-Mef

@Ben: Well, I find Star Wars down right silly now that the Clone Wars has reered it's ugly head. Karen Traviss is by far the only Star Wars novelist I know that really makes it realistic.

Yup. I'm the opposite and I like the Mandos in Rep Com as well as Canderous, but the new ones that are babies and suck their thumb when they see the Duchess, ugh. That's just not right...

@Gravity: I'm not sure about the history, but Death Watch was always the radical Mandos that just killed and looted everything. So, yeah.

My main reason for not being into Star Wars (especially Mandalorians now):

Karen Traviss states (the good side, uh huh): Mandalorians go around the galaxy in clans and or seperate Bounty hunting factions. Mandalore is a ruined planet that houses the bounty hunters and clans and keep their beliefs and rules.

Georgey: Mandalorians are peaceful people who don't do much of anything except for hate their past and walk around in light blue clothes. The true Mandalorians all somehow died and radicals went to a nearby moon to cry their eyes out before deciding to become terrorrists. Which, in their eyes, is the "true Mandalorians." Now, they pretend like they can fight while the law of Lucasfilm states: No bad guys can win. Nuh uh. It's not happening.

I mean, come on, every episode is: There's these bad guys you see, well you may think they're all bad and are all voiced by the same three people with weird accents, but Obi-Wan comes in and punches one and the Republic wins! It's just that the clones aren't perfect and the droids weren't meant to be nothing by cannon fodder. In Rep Com they're used strategiclly and follow orders well.

But, enough of that, feel free to comment, but I'm getting off topic.

And, I'm still waiting for approval...so it may be a while before I get to RP...

-Mef

Yep, the Mandos were my pride and joy, so when they were made nothing more than weak terrorists who don't even know how to aim; I gave it up.

Yeah, that's where it came from.

-Mef

@Pein: Shiny means the white color of the clones armor.

@Gravity: Karen Traviss is really the only Star Wars author I read because I am no longer into Star Wars after the Mandalorians were ruined.

@Ben: Well, you'd have to see the war for what it is and that being a harsh, cold place. The book suits just fine with the world of Star Wars from a realistic perspective.

Yes, the game is fun.

@Builik: Yeah, you need to read the rest if you can. They're pretty cool, but it's always good to go back to the older ones and refresh your Mando.

-Mef

Well, the fighting has a realistic side to it. Not every skirmish is full of awesome catch phrases by Japenese fighters who's eyes bulge out. But, yeah, I understand.

And, I think the reason there wasn't much action is because it's more of the family's side; not the meat cans (shinies, normal troopers) side of the story.

@Ben: Be gone with you too! What is everyone's deal with Tim? I haven't read any of his books though, so maybe I shouldn't be harsh.

-Mef

Grumpy comments shall be deleted my fellow! Be gone!

-Mef

It deals with the politics of war and I think has a fair amount of action with the assault on Coruscant, and the other battles. Not even including Order 66 itself. If you want plenty of action, the first one probably has the most, but all books deal mainly in the politics of war as well as the mental aspect.

Maybe it'd make more sense if you read the first one to start off with (it helped me alot).

-Mef

Yeah, Mird can count. Yeah, they're all very good.

Also, no spoilers are to be posted because others may not have read through the books and may be interested in doing so. (This doesn't really go out to any specific person, just to anyone who reads this post).

-Mef

Make that four.

And, sounds like fun. How cool would a Master Chief valentine be?
