What the ? Is this the new norm for Galaxies ?
Just turned in my accumulated Rares getting ready for the final push tonight and chew up my vast hoard of Chronos, only to see that I'm just shy of the top threshold (~129k) and I'm only sitting at 13000 place ! Only 12000 to drop (like that's going to happen).
What is everyone parked at threshold and if I hit 131000 pts I'm down to 5000th place or something, or has the Data DBarcle taken it's toll, with everyone who got him by mistake has now zoomed ahead in this event with accelerated crafting of Rares.
Obviously I'm only considered a Second Class customer (without the freebie Data) , so I guess I'll have to find something else to do tonight (and maybe in the future) after I turn in my rares on my second account and threshold-and-out.
Good one DB, nice uneven playing field (not that it was ever even, but up against P2W is understood and accepted ).

Im not sure this week will be as competitive as last, though there are a few who want Weyoun for a push for Spock next week.
I'm happy though at threshold and out as another 1/5 clogging up my roster is not needed.

1. Rank 10k is about right for "Thresholds-and-out" for Galaxy events ... and seeing as you're not yet there, you are at a perfectly normal rank I'd say.
I know this because I've been tracking my placing (and score) for events since Gods & Masters (March 2017). I almost always go Threshold and out for Galaxies, this is the first time I'm trying for top 1000.
So, once you hit 131k VP you should be around 9k-11k I'd reckon.
2. I don't have HMS Pinafore Data ... am basically f2p (see other thread) ... so would be considered a "second class customer" by your definition ... and am sitting at rank 565 as I write this ... so no to your question.
Would Data have helped out? Yes, for sure. But what would have been better is if I'd played the event Sat. and Sun. ... I think I only crafted 12 items over those two days because of the amount of time a Galaxy can take up and the little I have for the game due to my personal situation.
Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

Sacrificial Lamb, Legendary of Interest, Sacrificial Lamb, Legendary of interest, I eagerly await what the next Sacrificial Lamb will be announced this week.
TLDR: Threshold and out, 139470 and ranked 5134 currently and moving on down (and moving on down, nothing can stop me).
Not a P2W Vs F2P argument here.
Some ups and downs there, but as a rule taking the thresholds tends to rank me anywhere from 7,000 - 15,000 in the overall standings. Your placement is pretty consistent with past events.
Edit to add: I also sometimes go a little bit past the thresholds, just because I figure there's going to be a logjam right at that number. As I think about it some more, 10K and lower is probably more realistic at the threshold level than those better-than-10K finishes.
Case in point, the average event winning score for a Galaxy event pre-Voyages? 1.56M VP.
The average winning score for a galaxy event post-Voyages? 4.1M VP.
And post skirmish introduction it’s closer to 6-7 Million
