thanks DB for putting the repeated 5* into threshold rewards!
this is a great change (introduced with dancing Uhura a few months ago)

Agreed, I wonder how many people bought the $25 deal and if they did how many tickets are going to be submitted for a refund.

We really don't deserve your kind gestures, especially when I look at the toxic community in this forum Unnecessary comment removed. ˜Shan
Toxic community? Have you been playing the game since Day One? VIP 14 at least thrice over?

Do a re-run of Battle of New York and put Yar or O'Brien in the thresholds. I think I might have some clarity after trying that.
She still makes it onto my Guantlet crew when traits match up. She was very useful until Sarek showed up as a recurring legendary in the Mega. I have her at 3/5 so she compares well to most of the good 4/4 for voyages and makes it onto quite a few of them still.
PM for details.
So long and thanks for all the fish.
I am leaning on one of those two to put my Yar citations on so I wouldn't mind that idea one bit. 🙂
The other side of the coin: Loyal souls like most here in the forum are rare in this and many games. Users come and go. Hence DB also agreed to a partnership to aquire new users last year. And since most longterm players also have no shortage on chrons, a deep crew etc. that offer had no value for most and they passed on it.
Different with new players: At the start they same as we were are short on everything. So maybe they liked T´Pol, got a kinda decent all around crew, some chrons they needed - and now as "bonus" can get a second copy during the event.
You can never please everyone in games (so those who did have her 4/5 and bought a further star are surely pissed), but what DB did here is a good thing for most players.
Well i dont think that lots of people bought the offer, on the thread dedicated to it everybody is saying how they wont buy it for $25...for once dbs idea to inflate the price actually saved them in a sense!
I agree / cool move and i'm looking really looking forward to clearing threshold rewards and earning another Mirror T'pol (great fun).

Would that be this thread with 2K views and 80 comments? Somehow, I doubt that it accurately reflects the purchasing decisions of the approximately 68K other players who regularly participate in events (using Roonis’s 70K as a baseline).
I mean, someone sure as heck is buying the $25 cards, even if it’s not those 2K viewers or 80 commenters ... or me.

P.S.: In the past 2 weeks, 92153 players competed in the Captain division of the Arena.

Captain of the voyage vessels: Queen of Bashir, Landsknecht, and Sunspear, the first luxury starship cruiseliners.
Amenities include wifi, fully-functioning holodecks, a full-service bar, 3 party decks, a Trill spa, and a business centre.
Fun fact: The ships are propelled by bouncy castle technology.
It’s good to get a chance to add stars on some of the old legendaries. I was planning to sit this event out (have Valeris in freezer), but will now at least play until thresholds. And then see whether it’s worth going for Sarek.
Still though, even if it will have me scrambling a bit, good going from DB.
That is true, but i really dont think any sane person would do that, a noob maybe...
I'm always amused by the old "forum members don't represent the player base" comments.
Guess words and phrases like "microcosm" and "representative sample" can be tossed out and surveys and polls can go too. Which is fine by me. Hopefully the media can start covering cute puppies and kittens during elections instead of telling us what polls show.
Timing of the offer was a bit silly though because it kept everyone guessing whether she'd be in rank rewards or not - and considering recent mishaps and the price I do think they are missing a trick, like including a 2 copies for 20 or 30 and 2 event packs in the portal offers - I wonder how many would bite on that kind of offer.
I get that DB are here to make money but if they actually use logical exploits especially if they are trying to drum up new takers into spending their money then this would be the way to go. It could easily help ensure longevity of the game at least for the moment.
