Apologies for the break in updates, I'm currently working away from my normal workplace, which is involving a 6am start to get there. Obviously I'm fairly knackered when I get home in the evening, and when I'm at work I've not got my usual access to the Internet, so can't even do the work during my lunchbreak. Everything should return to normal next week, and we've lots of great stuff thats been sent through. So in the meantime, here's a YouTube video someone sent me through the link to (I'm sure I saw it sometime in the past, but it seemed better this time).

        Well, closing off another poll, and Grand Admiral Thrawn has won, something which has taken me totally by surprise as I fully expected Vader to romp home as he often does in our polls. This is rather impressive for a character created in a trilogy of novels some 15+ years old, who died a fairly ignoble death at the end of that trilogy (basically for a guy who knows how everyone reacts (by studying their cultures and art) and how to manipulate them to achieve his goals, he gets stabbed and says "Oh, I didn't expect that"). I'm also guessing that Episode 3 is having an effect on Palpatines popularity, since I remember in pre-episode 3 polls he never had a particularly good showing. But anyway, the full results were. . .

Who is the best Star Wars Villain?

Emperor Palpatine  33 Darth Vader  34 Darth Maul  2 Darth Tyranus  0 General Grievous  8 Grand Moff Tarkin  16 Grand Admiral Thrawn  71 Boba Fett  10 Darth Malak  1 Darth Sion  0 Darth Nihilus  14 Darth Krayt  4 votes: 193

        Due to a torrent of requests (okay its 10 all from the same person :) ), I've added Gorm the Dissolver (Arkanian Battle Droid/Cyborg - Bounty Hunter) to the Star Wars D/6 Character section. Although history of this character is easy to find, and his skills easy to judge from his exploits, his physical capabilities and equipment I found much harder to discover and document (for example he's either a droid or a cyborg, immune to gas, but is this due to him being a droid and therefore not worth mentioning (which I went with), or is it a special ability of his added by his cybernetics?). Anyway, I've done my best, if anyone thinks they can do better, then send it in and I'll put it up as well.

        Only one addition today, a response to a request, so I've added Ahsoka Tano (Togruta Jedi Padawan) from the Clone Wars CGI Movie to the Star Wars D/6 Characters section. Only managed one today, because I spent a long time trying to fulfil another request, but was having severe problems with it, so maybe I might finish that later on, or maybe I'll just update the poll (that sounds far more likely doesn't it).

        Okay as usual I didn't get any other updates done last week, and I'm even a little late with the update this week (due to having to set up a new mail server at work). Anyway, this week was very much helped out by bountiful contributions to the site, so today I've added Robotech Defense Forces Super Veritech Fighter and Robotech Defense Forces Veritech Fighter to the Star Wars D/6 Starships section, both by Hellstormer, and Assan Aeroplane Company Porcupine Planetary Defense Missile Launcher to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles section, BlasTech DL-44R Repeating Heavy Blaster Pistol and Galactech "Fellstroke" Man Portable Missile System to the Star Wars D/6 Equipment section, and Assan Air Angel Air Superiority Starfighter to the Star Wars D/6 Starships section all by Alex Panzerkit. As usual these are all excellent contributions, with Hellstormer continuing with his Robotech conversions to the Star Wars D/6 system, and Alex's conversions of real world WW2 equipment to the Star Wars Universe.

        I've still got Buffy and Exalted stuff to upload, the Exalted stuff doesn't look quite right, and the sheer quantity of Buffy stuff scared me, so maybe I'll add them next week. I'll try to add some Star Wars stuff either later today (looks at the clock and realises its later than he thought), or more likely later in the week.
