I had this idea last night that made a lot of sense to me that I think would help bring people from Galaxies to the VE and from the VE to Galaxies.
What if we had Fury put stuff that can be had in Galaxies in the Imperial Center Store and thus those of us who play Galaxies could actually buy stuff and actually have it to use.
If we did that then the horde of ic's I have just laying around doing nothing because they are meaningless to me and to my VE character would then actually have some value.
My current skills for what I can produce and what I will charge for them will be as follows(all items are in Galaxies credits):
Unsliced CDEF(any) 29-59 Damage 3.4 attack speed 25 credits
All power ups(melee or ranged) 25 credits
Mabari Armor full set(only a novice Armor Smith at the moment so it's not very good): currently free(I need thralls)
Current stocks: 100 CDEF Rifles, 1 basic black Mabari armor set, 1 white mabari armor set, 1 pink mabari armor set
Please specify color when ordering new sets of Mabari armor 'cause currently once they are made they are stuck that color.
Warning I'm going to be getting a bit out landish in Galaxies because I can no longer take it very seriously.
Let me know what you think about that idea and if I need to explain it a little better.

I am totaly behind you on this idea. But i would suggest getting some "Master" badges. My character is too advanced to use CDEF weapons and such. I would be totaly for buying T21's, DXR-b Rifles, and speed pups for ranged and melee. But i like quality items. I would be your biggest customer if you did this. ^_^ ----------------------- TRP/LCP Mandor/3SQD/2PLT/1COMP/1BAT/1RGT/VEA/VE [LoR][BoA] |

Well since I'm going the AS route I'll eventually be able to make some decent armor.
Now only if Galaxies would let me back in.
We'll just have to work with Fury to come up with a fair exchange rate for credits to IC's and maybe get him an assistant to keep track of who can make what and has what in stock.
I'll have to see what I can do consistantly now that I got an Armorsmith skill to make better Mabari armor but I imagine that it isn't worth a whole lot yet.
We'll probably also have to figure out a way to keep the Galaxies credits flowing too so we can afford to give this stuff away for IC's or else we're going to wind up broke trying to fill all the orders. ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA

I was hoping for a better turn out of people saying something, anything about my idea.
I'll see about discussing it with the other members of CU the next time I log back into SWG.
That should grab some attention. ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA

Thanks.
Well I started the idea bouncing around in Guild chat, perhaps I should discuss it more thouroughly in e-mail.
If I can figure out a way to organize information and make it so I can sort through it quickly I am thinking of actually starting a GUESSWORK intelligence unit in Galaxies.
I also have to figure out a way to make the information readily available for anyone who wants/needs it.
My current idea is recruit me some operatives who'll keep notes for me in thier notepads and just use an in game e-mail distribution system. ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA

Well I've been away from Galaxies longer then intendid but I needed the break.
Seems while I was away there has been 0 discussion on my idea by the looks of this topic.
Oh well I guess that is the reward for all who come up with deceant ideas. ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA

No, let's not talk about ideas on the comnet. Let's not talk about anything at all! We must keep it all secret!

I'll be starting up galaxies again following otakon, I will probably be in there, and willing to purchase your items as soon as i level up my character enough to gain some credits. Other than that, I doubt you'll see much turn out on something like this. ----------------------- Dark Jedi Knight of the Dark Jedi Order

ramon, i wasnt saying keep the item purchasing secret. I was saying its not wise to talk about GUESSWORK on the comnet. ----------------------- TRP/LCP Mandor/3SQD/2PLT/1COMP/1BAT/1RGT/VEA/VE [LoR][BoA] |

Yes, because saying 'Yeah, that's a great idea! Let's do it!' really gives away all our plans to someone sad enough to come looking, doesn't it. ----------------------- Ramon Stonefish

Well my item purchasing scheme does need backing from more crafters if it is going to be possible.
/me Looks around to make sure that only VE and FES members can read this topic
Unless you do not trust our password system and the members of those orgs who can access this comnet there is no reason to keep it secret, especially since what GUESSWORK is and what it does.
I suspect we will have to work on something a bit more secretive with receant CU events. ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA

considering a sizable group of CU left, and some went rebel, yeah i think it would be wise to be a little bit more quiet. They didnt like the leadership, and went rebel. I tell ya what, i cant think of anything else that would be a better motive for spying. ----------------------- TRP/LCP Mandor/3SQD/2PLT/1COMP/1BAT/1RGT/VEA/VE [LoR][BoA] |

After the 19th it won't matter anyway.
I can't continue to afford SWG for the forseeable future because I couldn't get a paycheck on time and thus expenses have reduced me to approximatly $2.00 for operating funds.
If it were not for the members of CU I would have left a long time ago(all the people who are responsible for me having been there this long are still members of CU). ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA

Allright I dug this up again because I still think it's a good idea and I need to work on it and would appreciate any input I can get on the idea of making it possible to use ICs to buy SWG goods.
I've already come to the conclusion that there will have to be limitations and conditions on what can be bought.
Condition 1: Because of resource shifts and not being able to constantly keep good crafting materials on hand for requested items, the purchaser will be stuck with what ever we have on hand that will make the best possible quality item.
Condition 2: Maximum ordering caps will be placed in effect depending on available materials.
Condition 3: Some items will still require some SWG credits due to the absolute rarity or other difficulties in obtaining neccessary materials.
Condition 4: Unless one of the other crafters wishes to place thier services at the disposal of this proposition currently only very limited in usefullness items are available. ----------------------- Kuroishi Wraith VEA
