Greetings Captains, I understand your frustration. Tomorrow I'm meeting the team and I'll let them know about the inconvenience and Hopefully Ill manage to get some compensation, can't promise anything, but I will try. LLAP

Instead of focusing on compensation can you talk to the team about how this happens every event and we all know it will happen. The team needs to deploy enough AWS instances to handle peak load at the end of an event. After months of issues, no one should be surprised about crashes at end.

After months, they should have RESOLVED the issue.

100% agree. BUT, if you're leaving it to the last minute to try to climb those vital places even though we all know about these issues, then you've really only got yourself to blame at this point.

We all know WRG are useless, the servers can never cope with peak load and the game will stall/crash in the opening and closing phases of every single event. That's a given at this point, and while I'm sure Nancy will bring it up with the team tomorrow I have zero faith in anything actually changing. If it was going to improve it would have been sorted months ago.

So, knowing that all this is going to happen, why would you leave it to the last minute to make up those vital places?

Some of us are limited in our time available, especially in a long grind event, like a skirmish. We play when we can, which might mean having to wait until the last day to get points.

I also never used to have a problem with doing a good chunk of my play the morning of the last day in the past. There have been times when I barely started until the final day due to time constraints without any problems.

I've been a consistent top 1500 or better player for years using this strategy in skirmish and galaxy events. Never was an issue until recently with these server issues.

Your attempt to blame the players who count on the last hours is misguided. The event runs for four days. Why should we be punished for using all of that time? 🤔

Ah! Riker Odan! I forgot what happened there.

I think WRG should take the Romantic trait off both of them, but don't expect it until their trait overhaul comes through. Apparently they're actively working on it.

I'm not sure what exactly happened with the Q girl.

I know Beverly took advantage of a crew-mate who had never shown any romantic interest in her, because she loved the slug that took over his body.

So, I cannot say which is "worse".

Riker Odan is definitely worse since Crusher actually went through with it. Amanda Rogers realized what she was doing was wrong before anything actually happened, but briefly mind-controlled Riker to be in love with her.

Been a very long time, but I thought she had backed off pretty quickly.

The Beverly situation actually went on long enough for the parasite to almost kill Riker, IIRC.

Yeah, it was pretty quick, I just didn't remember the Odan situation at all, so when I drew Regency Riker my first thought was, "Oh, right, this scene! That must be what the complaint was about; it was indeed sketchy!"

And my understanding was that the Odan situation went on only as long as it had to until another Trill* got there, which was indeed long enough to almost kill Riker; Crusher didn't draw it out further. It's been almost 20 years since I actually watched that episode, though.

*asterisk added only because it feels weird not to

Taking aside the fact, that you need to work to score top750, there are only that many places to get 2 legendaries. The rest, scoring 751+ has to pay for citations.

people still seem to don't get that this OE isn't 100% legendaries

Mr Homm, N. Thug & Migleemo are all purples. Take in the fact that the next 2 events involve community rewards & you'd have to put in very little effort to get th remaining 1 needed

so you are pretty much guaranteed at least 1copy of T'pol - who is gauntlet so you only need 1 copy anyway - Kashyk & Elder Saru

That WAS the standard for Gauntlet Crew. However, now a 1 🌟 Gauntlet "powerhouse" is going to lose constantly to the Immortalized ones, that people have fully Quipped.....

I think you are overestimating

a 1 skill "1 🌟 Gauntlet "powerhouse" " can easily still fail to a 2 skill regular top tier gauntlet crew at high tier

You can easily have your own "powerhouses" if you research your crew. I know I won't be hurrying to immortalize her

Why wouldn't you? She has six collections, and as mentioned, she'll be clobbered by quipped copies of her.
