    I actually managed to get the correct thing (18k honor for 13,025th place), so it may not be as simple as “>= vs <= rank 1500” that led to the error. Which is kind of worse, really...

    My best guess right now is they based it off of the wrong event, or put the DBIDs through RNG. :P

    That seems reasonable. I haven’t been in the top 1500 in a while...perhaps last week’s event?

    Correct, it's not a previous event rank, as my 16000th place account has never breeched the top 5k of any event, ever. Yet he got Data.
    Excel error or script error.

    Just checked my past ranks with my main toons.
    And the last time my Main didn t finished top 1000 while my other toon did, was the „Updated and Revised“ event. But why whould they use the ranking of a event 4 weeks ago? Well...yes i know. Lol

    No they have been doing that for years.
  • No wait, if Art didn't get 50k honor... who did, exactly?

    I feel like they probably sent it to someone.

    Probsbly the player who finished in last place.

  • Hrmm, for me I got the 'correct' compensation based on my ranking from the first time.

    I got 18K honor, too, and 300ish place.

    Maybe this issue is the same issue as the shuttles. Ie not knowing the difference between AND and OR.

    If they used ranks from a different event, then it wasn't Updated and Revised. I had rank 552 in that one and I got 18000 honor as I was supposed to :D

    Yes, a fleetmate just proved me wrong as well. Ok, so its just RNG and total random.

    I started thinking... Maybe they should just send Data to players who got honor and honor to players who got Data. Everyone would get the same thing in the end and that's probably the best outcome they could hope for.

    Then I realized.... That probably wouldn't go right either and the mess would get compounded. The situation seems near hopeless, I'm afraid.

    Business as usual at DB. A recent screenshot from the dev's computer.

    Maybe my crusade to just get the OR and AND shuttles to work correctly was setting the bar too high....

    Maybe CareerBuilder.com is filming a new chimpanzee commercial, DB rented out their offices as a filming location, and forgot to unplug the keyboards?

    I’m actually laughing as it’s getting worse...

    ...the only way to fix this now: everyone gets 18k honour and a shiny Data and then extra compensation for those at 1-1500 on top of that...

    This is pretty much the only thing that would be fair to all players

    Perhaps they should give everyone a Mirror Picard.... Too soon?

    Then reduce his ship skills :-)

    Wow.... how do they mess up this. I backed out of event when I realized everything was problematic and ended in around 3000 but this amazes me how how poorly this is turning out. With the 10 for 10 offers today I am just going to hold off.

    Same here.

    Seriously though, has the dev never written a database query before? I honestly having a hard time seeing how a professional at any level of his career could mess up something so simple.
