However, I'd like to eek out as much power from this PrC as possible. The general build I had in mine was 2 Monk/8 Rogue/10 NotCM, but I don't have enough experience with monks, rogues, or ninjas to know if there's something better I could be taking. As for a weapon, I've heard that a three-section staff is best for a NotCM so I was planning on going with that. My questions: 1) Is there a more optimal NotCM build than what I posted? 2) Should I stick with the three-section staff or move on to a different weapon? 3) What specific feats should I take to get the most out of my SA, uber saves, BAB, etc? Basically... what are the best possible ways to min/max a Ninja of the Crescent Moon?

Personally i like to go monk9/NotCM10 just for the flavor and movement abilities but that isn't so min/maxed. Your approach looks good, just get combat reflexes/ expert tactician for additional sneak attacks.
