    Hello fellow Vault Dwellers!

    I was thinking...

    Competitions have previously produced some really great builds on the site, I think we could really use some to get the group further. Though it will be slightly more difficult coming up with working themes due to the slightly predefined backstory of the characters, though with a bit of effort this could easily be worked in around. Any of y'all have any ideas for themes?

    I'd love to put my photoshop skills to use in a Fallout CB event. Sadly I'm about to finish my current playthrough and it'll take some time before I have a go at it again.

    Who did you side with? Yeah I personally am struggling to get back on too, I haven't played in weeks because I'm not sure what I want to do, I want to experience the game from a new angle. Haven't managed a survival playthrough yet however.

    Railroad all the way baby! Liberate the toasters!!! I can't kill Synths. I don't know. What about you? 

    You know, after looking over a WiP Fallout 4 build here on the site (the Azure Witch), I might have changed my mind about starting a new playthrough. :))

    At one point I started a list (offline) of possible contest/event/competition bild ideas. Once the site move was immenent I let it go. I do think it's worth revisiting if there's enough interest.

    Hmm. 

    Companion revolving builds maybe?

    Codsworth, Ada, Curie, Mccready, nick, strong, gage, longfellow, etc. Lots of potential

    Yeah - a Companion build competition would be my top choice. Here's a list I started a long time ago:

    Event Ideas:
    Companion Build
    Faction Build
    Unique Weapon / Item / Clothing / Armor Build – ie Cryolater, Junk Jet, Grognak’s Axe, or legendary farmed weapon etc, Reginald’s Suit, Alien Blaster
    Crossworlds

    The more I think about it, the more I'm leaning toward "Unique Item" building event. I think this would provide the most amount of options, diversity and inclusivity for builders. I still like the companions themed option, but it takes away a good chunk of RP (for sole survivors/wanderers) and limits some perk choices (like Lone Wanderer for example). 

    How many of you are interested in a Unique Item Fallout 4 CB Event - maybe by the end of the year?
