What might be fun is to have some crafting contests - we could have three categories - any grade up to choice, any grade up to ex, and any grade up to sup and see who could get best stats in each one (the best recipie I think is different for each), graded on the sum of the two OE and heal stats.
Maybe a fourth category with any grade up to sup but this time graded on OE, heal and affy speed stats (affy power is reletively unimportant).
Un-boosted only, I think :)

Not that I get play much at the minute however...
Crafting contest... nice :)

how to check that no cheating with the mats can occur?
- crafters need to come naked and with nothing in inv than their mats and tool
- crafter hands over his complete inv to a referee so he can check nothing but choice/excel is available (no need to do that for sup so your secret ingredients stay unnkown, also you can hold up to 400+ mats so fill up with everything the GH provides for the excel recipe :D
- second referee hands over an ammount of mats that only someone with a completely empty inv can hold it - this proves youre playing fair

could work?

there was one with larva but i don't remember.

I thought it was more like "use anything you have and make the best amp with the given category", so you can use supreme ambers and basic fiber or bark and end up somewhere at choice or so. Categories would count for the final item Grade and not the stuff used. This could work and make it evil.

Like "Make the best BASIC Quality Amp for Ele". And if you now start to put choice and basic or only basic in there doesn't matter as long as the crafted product stays basic. Though could still cheat with rubbarn :(

Well, it's not really possible to cheat with the Sup one (unless people use boosted items, but then it is probably fairly easy to tell).

As for the others, as it will only be choice and excellent perhaps the winning entry could give the recipie to the judges, and they could verify that the recipie produced the correct results?

As I doubt people are so protective of choice and ex recipies - as good as they can be they are going to win no OP battles.
