The Star Wars: Galaxies Legends Galactic Homeshow: Life Day 2024 Edition

The Star Wars: Galaxies Legends Galactic Homeshow: Life Day 2024 Edition

If you’ve been looking for an excuse to unleash your inner Wookiee decorator, the Legends Galactic Homeshow: Life Day 2024 might just be calling your name. This month, the iconic Star Wars: Galaxies (SWG) Legends server challenges its community to celebrate Life Day—a festive tradition beloved by Wookiees and Star Wars aficionados alike.

Grab your Storyteller props, polish up your creative vision, and get ready to make your virtual abode the envy of the galaxy. Here’s everything you need to know about the competition and why it’s time to channel your inner Chewbacca Martha Stewart.


What Is the Galactic Homeshow?

The Galactic Homeshow is a long-standing tradition in SWG: Legends where players submit their uniquely decorated structures for judgment on creativity, individuality, and overall concept. Whether it’s a humble Tatooine hut or an elaborate Naboo mansion, every space is a canvas for galactic-level creativity.

But December’s Homeshow ups the ante: the theme is Life Day, meaning all entries need to radiate holiday cheer—with a Wookiee twist. Think glowing orbs, red robes, and all the cozy vibes of Kashyyyk during the festive season.


Rules of Engagement: Entering the Homeshow

Before you dive headfirst into decorating madness, there are a few guidelines to keep in mind. These will help you stay on track while aiming for that glorious winner’s trophy:

  1. Theme Compliance: This month is all about Life Day! From Wookiee tributes to holiday-inspired aesthetics, ensure your structure embraces the seasonal spirit.
  2. Storyteller Props: Using Storyteller props inside your structure? Perfect—they count toward your decorations. Just don’t place them outside the judged structure; those won’t count.
  3. One Entry Per Month: Focus your efforts on one house per contest. (Sorry, no decorated spaceships allowed!)
  4. Re-entry Rules: You can re-enter a previously used house, but it can’t win another planetary map waypoint if it already has one.
  5. Judging Specific Areas: If only certain parts of your house are meant to be judged, be clear about it when submitting your entry.
  6. Waypoint Accuracy: Make sure your structure is public and that the provided waypoint is correct, or the judges might get lost in hyperspace.

What’s in It for You?

The prizes for winning the Life Day Homeshow are no small potatoes—they’re enough to make any galactic decorator’s heart race:

  • Homeshow Trophy: A Life Day-themed trophy that will be the pride of your in-game home.
  • Planetary Map Display: Your house marked on the planetary map for all to see. Press “V” to show off!
  • Exclusive Titles & Icons: Earn the in-game title Galactic Homeshow Winner, a unique forum icon, and an in-game badge.
  • Monthly Bonus Prize: December’s winner also gets a rare “Welcoming House Sign.” The only way to obtain this collectible is by claiming victory.

If that doesn’t tempt you, are you even playing for the swag?


Pro Tips for Standing Out in the Homeshow

Feeling the pressure? Fear not—here are a few tips to give your submission a galactic edge:

  1. Go Big on Life Day: Use iconic decorations like glowing orbs, festive lights, and even Life Day trees to bring the theme to life.
  2. Tell a Story: Let your house reflect a narrative. Maybe it’s a cozy Wookiee retreat or a bustling cantina celebrating the season.
  3. Blend Functionality with Flair: While aesthetics are key, a touch of realism in your layout can make your home feel more immersive.
  4. Judges Love Uniqueness: Avoid cookie-cutter designs. Think outside the box—or Death Star.
  5. Scout the Competition: Explore other entries (via the waypoint submissions) for inspiration—or friendly rivalry.

How to Submit Your Masterpiece

Ready to join the ranks of SWG legends? Submitting your decorated structure is as easy as igniting a lightsaber:

  1. Post Your Waypoint: Reply to the designated forum thread with the waypoint and planet where your structure is located.
  2. Make It Public: Ensure your home is open to the public for judging.
  3. Double-Check the Deadline: Use this time converter to avoid missing the submission window.
  4. Wait for Judgement Day: Once submissions close, the judges will tour each entry to select the winner. They’re aiming to start judging immediately after the deadline.

Even if you don’t snag the top prize, entering the Homeshow is a fantastic way to engage with the SWG: Legends community. It’s a celebration of creativity, storytelling, and, of course, a love for all things Star Wars. Plus, there’s nothing quite like seeing your fellow decorators marvel at your handiwork—or inspiring someone else’s next masterpiece.
