I tested this in a fresh p610 install with the latest farcrycms from SVN and 
I saw the same error with the handpicked rule.

I tried to track down the bug, but was unable to do so and ran out of time 
to continue trying.

That said, I would suggest you create a "grid" rule where you can select 6 
items.  This would be a simple rule to create.  You could either use an 
array field and allow the user to select the items and use the sort order to 
layout the grid or you could create the six separate UUID fields.

Create a displayTeaserGridCell.cfm webskin and put the display code there 
for each custom type you allow the user to select.  This way the user 
doesn't have to choose a webskin.  

When creating your rule using either an ftType="array" or ftType="uuid" you 
would specify an ftJoin="" attribute that would be a comma separated list of 
all the content types you want to allow the user to select.

This would allow your users to select any objects they want and easily 
display them.

You wont need an update.cfm webskin.  Just let FarCry build the form for 
you.  This will vastly improve both the user experience and the 
maintainability of the code since you will only have 1 CFC to maintain for 
the rule (which will either be a single cfproperty tag or 6 depending on 
which way you go), and the displayTeaserWebskin.cfm for each content type.

If your content objects are fairly similar, you can also create a 
displayTeaserGridCell.cfm webskin in the "types" folder which will be used 
for any content type that doesn't have its own webskin.  You could then 
override for a couple custom types if necessary and have even less to 
maintain.

If I have some additional time soon, which is doubtful :(, I'll try to look 
at the handpicked rule again but you should be able to create more user 
friendly and simpler rules rather quickly to replicate this functionality.
