Hello,
Holy Beholder, today is a forfeit on my part. It is late in the day, I have run out of time, and am low on inspiration. However, that said, you can expect me to return tomorrow with a new item.
Signed,
Conchobaer

Hello,
That is a good idea, but who? We could send private messages to old competitors to try and drum up support.

No idea who. I suppose we could just let anyone not competing judge. Although maybe they should have to put in a few weapons of their own. I think Ill judge a few, since I probably wont be competing for a week or two.

Maybe it should be more of a vote?

The problem is finding multiple people to vote is going to be difficult. That and we have only had one person so far, but it changes around. Plus people can't both make a weapon and judge.

Which ones need doing? I haven't done any judging in a while, I could give it a look in.

About the last 10 entries. Mostly a bunch between me and Conchoebaer.
Twin horns against the Mark of the Bluegold.
Gem Carriage against the Experiment Code
Pipe against hand against wasp.
Companion against Eggs.
Mace against marrow.
EDE staff against morpheous. (Of course this might as well just be a fruitcake to morpheous)
Explosive Dim Energy Ball(EDE Ball) against wispering tancho
Soul Blades water talisman against into the fray against Prison break.
Chain of Rainbow fire against Light of Desperation
Magnet staff against Picea Mariana.
So maybe you can do the EDE ball, magnet staff, and gem carriage.

The Twin Horns, I think. Less complicated, and quite useful.
Gem Carriage against the Experiment Code
Hm... A tough one. On balance, the Gem Carriage is less mechanically complicated, even if the determination method of the effect is a little unclear.
Pipe against hand against wasp.
The Wasp, I think. The pipe is interesting, but why do so many people seem so keen on making flawed weapons?
Companion against Eggs.
The eggs. Less complicated and themed weapons are fun.
Mace against marrow.
The Mace. Much less complicated.
EDE staff against morpheous. (Of course this might as well just be a fruitcake to morpheous)
Morpheus. It doesn't suffer the problem of forcing people to look up another magic item.
Explosive Dim Energy Ball(EDE Ball) against wispering tancho
Ooh... hm... yeah... On balance, I'm inclined to go with the Whispering Tanch. Despite being based on Iajutsu Focus (a flawed mechanic, in my view), it is far easier to get your head around. Although it could have been represented a little more succintly.
Soul Blades water talisman against into the fray against Prison break.
Into the Fray, I think. Quite interesting, and very handy if used right.
Chain of Rainbow fire against Light of Desperation
Chain of Rainbow fire. Simpler, and ties into my prejudices that there should be more ToB material in use.
Magnet staff against Picea Mariana.
Hm... Picea Mariana. It's not especially intresting mechanically, but it's got a solid flavour to it and it isn't as complicated as the Magnet Staff.
So maybe you can do the EDE ball, magnet staff, and gem carriage.
Heck, I'll do the full load.

Hello,
I generally disagree as I use dexterity instead of charisma; also, because only samurai can use it as a class skill it is like a paladin ability. Only a few devoted roleplayers can use it. Also, it is no more broken than the sneak attack for the rogues. In fact, it is less broken than sneak attack. Sneak attack is a free bonus from class whereas you have to pay skill points for iaijutsu. Also, iaijutsu can only be used at the beginning of combat whereas sneak attack can be used within combat. And to do max damage from iaijutsu you have to have at least twenty ranks in iaijutsu and possibly as many as forty to ensure max damage.
Signed,
Conchobaer
