Background:

Following the call to action, Clan Scholae Palatinae searched the galaxy for objects fused with the mystical powers of the Force. Proconsul Kamjin "Maverick" Lap'lamiz was pleased with the results spread before him.

However, now the tedious task of unlocking their secrets and whether CSP could wield these powers for greater glory or secret them away to prevent disaster must begin.

Objective:

Each member of Clan Scholae Palatinae has been granted access to the following artifacts for experimentation. There will be a variety of experiments (e.g., competitions) available to each member.

Below is a listing of the artifacts now in our possession.

• Dreaded Holocron of the Pantless - Discovered by Rayne
  
• Scicis - Discovered by Thran
  
• The Rajk Opal - Discovered by Archangel
  
• The Esophagus of the Mechanical Sith Lord Darth Talos - Discovered by Dek
  
• Talisman of Deceit - Discovered by Raleien
  
• Unnamed Force Holocron - Discovered by Cello
  
• Self-replicating Donut - Discovered by Xantros
  

Scoring:

Each individual will earn five points per event they participate in. Participation is defined as a valid submission for an event. Simply signing up for an event or uploading an unqualified submission will not count. You have to put in the effort in order to receive the reward. Participation will earn 5 points.

In addition to participation points, the top three individuals in each competition will earn placement modifier points. First place will earn 4 points, second place will earn 3 points, and third place will earn 2 points, and all other entries will earn 1 point. Events themselves will have modifiers based on their perceived difficulty/level of effort required. For example: the modifier for fiction will be 3, the modifier for gaming/graphics/poetry will be 2, and no modifier will be added to puzzle/trivia/flash events.

Grading formula: (Placement Score * Event Modifier) + Participation = Event Score

At the end of the competition, the individual scores for all sub-competitions will be added up, and the top three individuals will earn crescents for the overall competition.
