What is this? It's a podcast focused on Star Wars Galaxies and all things Star Wars. We talk about how Star Wars and SWG pop up in our daily lives, what we've been doing in the game, and discuss the state of the game. We're just a couple of players, like the rest of you, who enjoy Star Wars.

We are not empolyees of Lucas Arts or Sony Online Entertainment nor do these companies pay us to produce this show.

Welcome to another episode of Yivvits and MrBubble! This week we have a pile of listener e-mail messages to read through, we discuss the Clone Wars Adventures, and offer our thoughts about the longevity of SWG. We also take a quick look at the recently released “free-to-play” version of EQ2 and wonder if something similar could work with SWG. If you've been hoping for more SWG talk, this episode is for you! Remember, your questions and comments drive what we discuss, so keep sending us those voice and e-mail messages!

 Puzzle Time:

What is The Puzzler 2.0?  

It’s an image that has to do with the Star Wars Galaxies world including web articles.  It’s broken into many puzzle pieces – and you are working to see who can finish the puzzle first!

What do I get for solving The Puzzler 2.0?  

If you are among the first 3 to figure out the ‘mystery picture’ by posting it in The Puzzler thread with the correct name, the forum title “Puzzler” will be bestowed upon you, along with the cool Puzzler icon / forum rank. 

There are only 3 winners per week so you have to be quick!

The Puzzler 2.0 “Rules”

An individual can only win The Puzzler 2.0 once, so if you’ve already won, please step aside and let others try their hand at it.  We may decide to remove your rank if you continue to post solved images after you have already won in a previous week. We want this to be fun for everyone.

To enter, solve the puzzle and post a screenshot of it to the forum thread with your guess as to what it is.  When the puzzle is posted, image guesses only will be allowed in the thread until The Puzzler 2.0 has been solved 

Please don’t clutter the thread up by discussing anything else within it until the game is over.  After it is solved, you can discuss The Puzzler 2.0 to your heart’s content…but until that time, anyone posting anything other than an image guess in the thread will have their post removed.

You must be one of the first 3 people to post the correct answer for the image along with a screen shot of the completed puzzle.  PM's to me with the answer will not count. The results / winners are based on the public forum thread. 

In the event that the 3rd and 4th person post at the same time on the message board (and the time stamp reflects this), we will have a 4th winner for that puzzle.
