Exactly, and as far as racing contests, they won't be a major focus.  I was
expecting that the actual combat contests would be pretty popular, tho.

Since a person could choose whether to make their ship compliant, or not, it
gives a little leeway to guild members (which I like).  I think that a
little icon could be added to the web pages of members that says: "This ship
is Hexadyne compliant" or some such statement with a link back to the main
Hexadyne page.  It gives a little bragging right to the developer as well as
advertisement for Hexadyne.

that's exactly how I was hoping it would work.

Now, not only do I have to buy my parts in real life, I have to buy them in
the brick world as well. Looks like I need another job.... :-)

LOL... I hadn't really thought of it that way...

actually, you can still build whatever you like, even following the Hexadyne
Guildlaw... you just have a limited amount for any ships that you want to be
your official contest entering ships.

I am also thinking of developing a way for companies to derive Hexcred
revenue from making and "selling" compliant ships... but I'm not sure how
that would quite work yet...  It could really throw a monkey wrench into the
whole balance, so it might not happen.  Any ideas?

cheers!
