Thanks everyone who came out to chase our BBQ'ing Droids. This Event is Now Over.

This weekend, Oct. 1 and 2, we will be running an exclusive in-game event in Star Legends as part of our sponsorship for the Austin, TX Big Android BBQ (www.BigAndroidBBQ.com (http://www.bigandroidbbq.com)). Here is how it works:

At random times we will be logging in from the event on a Droid Chef character. You will recognize these characters from their Red Name, their spiffy chef hat and their fun green visage :D

The Droid Chef can be wielding any of 3 different BBQ items: A Brush, A Fork or Tongs. If you do the WAVE EMOTE to the Droid, you will get a similar item to what they are holding.

BRUSH
1318

FORK
1319

TONGS
1320

If you are lucky enough to gather all three different items from the Droid Chef, you can then visit the BBQ Fashion Droid, found on the main deck of the UCS Blackstar to get your very own vanity Chef Hat!

1321

This event is only happening this weekend, so log in! We will see you next to the Grill!

Ty Samhayne! After about an hour and a half Droid Griller joined and was nice enough to pass out two full sets of the grilling vanities. Was well worth the wait, thanks! :)

I hope these items end up as "Deals of the Day". I doubt I am going to log in at the same time as the droid :-(

Well, even though I was waiting for over 3 hours, it was definitely worth the wait when droid_griller came with all 3 items for me :) and he lost his rack of ribs which I accidentally ate :P

dont follow the old "if youre patient, they will come" days, go look for him, it only took me like 20 minutes to find him after he came online. Then i found him twice more for a few friends. Just go lookin for him, youre bound to find him eventually.

Something I found very useful was to open the "join game" option, and then adjust the filter to show only "towns" (aka bases). It is then just a matter if hopping among the highest population rooms until you find the one where everyone is swarming to in order to get the items. Good luck everyone!

Thanks to everyone on the team for these superb items!


This was undoubtedly the most frustrating experience I've had in a long time. LOL

Not to bore you with details of how we waited for hours... I'll crack on. Standing around and waiting was a less than satisfactory experience so I devised a cunning plan.

S’called ‘Stage Hopping’!

I scored big for myself and friends by stage hopping and inviting friends as soon as I tracked down the by this stage infamous DROID . Did I hear someone say Genius? :p

FYI devs, we fired up the barbeque and had steak, yup right there on the platform. Not sure whether fire restrictions were in place at the time, but we did it.... oh yeah.

So I repeat myself, thanks again for the goodies! :)

I have to say one of your mate droids was very lucky.
We almost got him tied him down.
Our plan was to roast him, theres. Rumour going around saying he taste like cheeseburgers.

He eventually got away,instead of tieng his les, they tied his antenna,maybe thats why he nevet showed up.

As you predicted... or could it have been predetermined? A self-fulfilling prophesy?? Next time, try saying "I will get it for sure." and we'll see if that helps. I hate the idea that anyone can actually be unlucky. There has to be a better explanation!
