    However, Christmas is still hours away.....

    DB's staff have all likely left for the day. The odds of DB announcing a sale remotely after their staff has left is nearly 0.

    And last year on December 21st DB announced Merry Man Worf, the crew slot sale, Dabo discounts, and a DIL deal. It's now December 24th at 4:40 PM. It appears DB has decided to not offer anything before Christmas.

    An offer on Dec 26th is still possible, but it's looking more and more like Scrooge DB.

    Since we haven’t seen anything yet, maybe the slot sale will be in a week or two at the convergence day event.

    Well dear Comment moderated. ˜Shan AviTrek, as robownage pointed out above:

    They did good stuff already next to the Sisko freebie. And the discount on begolds was a much better thing than the Dabo discount. Also honor apart completely free which you prefer next to breadcrumbs offers as you let us know a 1000 times...

    Merry xmas ;)

    DB probably want you to airlock people, so it’s not clear to me that DB benefits as much from a crew slot as we think. In truth all of the last weeks stuff has been great for F2P (or at least my F2P account).

    Not so much for my main account. I’d rather be buying 10x10s than spending the honor. But for my F2P account it has been great for ships, fuses and a few Legendaries.

    Problem is slots though. I am a monthly card player and have only 2 crew i can freeze other than really limiting my cadets. I had to forgo honor packs because it would end up being overflow and if the sale doesn't occur or occur within the 7 day overflow period, all honor would be wasted.
  • i think if nothing apear the 25 december is going to be 26 december because the special pack buying whit honor is ended and new special going to apear and whit the pre-sale pack of the mega-event and probably what all expected free slot crew and maybe dabo wheel because whit the ad we have already 2 free spin but i have some money i can spend on this game if you offer a good deal
    94 Legendary, 4x 5/5 , 8,x 4/5 , 2x 3/5 , 11x 2/5 , 68x 1/5 ,
    78 FE ,78 Lvl 100,
    Immortalized: 190
    Vip:12 Lvl :64

    In fairness, a complaint I had last year was that the special offers came before I got Christmas money and not after. Perhaps they considered that?

    Of course, an essential aspect of the game and db bussiness is the limited space, so you have to spend to go around that. But there has to be a balance, and to take advantage of the honor sale you needed 10-20 slots and most people had 1 or 2 if any. The same with packs, if there is no balance between purchasable crew and crew space, people don't buy crew.

    Worst, slots are so expensive that most players are aware of sales and won't buy at the regular price.

    I had high hopes for this. I have 11 crew members over the limit. I need a christmas miracle.

    Come on DB. I've passed on quite a few deals because I lack slots. And I WON'T buy them on full price. But when they'll go on sale, you can be sure I'll spend a lot of bucks.

    In less than 2 hours, I have to choose to airlock some purple, or loose Mirror Troi.

    Got any candidates? I'm sure the forum can help with your airlocking options.

    Yes, indeed — but surely there are also some crew that you could freeze, Kanon... at least temporarily?


    Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

    I have several 1/4 I don't care that much for (Orion Slaver, Pel, and 3 or 4 more).

    Also, some 1/5 legendary that won't be useful ever (COP Picard, Orion Slave, The Traveler)

    And yes, I have some immortals:

    Liason Torres, I use her for her ship abbility, but given that I'm not active in arena lately, and not using her in skirmishes, this is the prime candidate fot the freezer today

    On 3 days, Doc Crusher will be immortalized via daily rewards, straight to the freezer.

    Cadet Wesley is FF, but at level 40, I'm actively trying to immortalize as soon as possible.

    I have 3 legendary immortals (Mirror Picard, Borg Queen and Katrina Cornwell). I really don't want to freeze them 'cause they are very useful in voyages (and M Picard in gauntlet). I might do it if I really believe this week we will have a sale.

    I have 3 super rare immortals I use for the adv cadet challenges, I think I'm gonna freeze them and loose that extra honor on weekends.

    I have 3 uncommon, for daily cadet challenges, I don't think I'm gonna freeze them.

    I would airlock all of those 1/4's. They'll all come around again, eventually, and unless they're filling an immediate need, or are ones you really dig, they're just clutter.

    I'd never suggest airlocking any Legendaries, though.

    This. Legendaries should be the last thing you airlock if you need space.

    I would freeze cadet crusher asap, then torres next if you need a second slot. Hope for that slot sale soon...

    Thanks. Yeah, most of the 1/4's are just there waiting for more copies (I don't even level them unless there is some really cool character that I like)

    I guess I'll start with Orion Slaver and Pel, this will be the second time I airlock them each :)

    I airlocked Captain Q four times before finally holding onto him to finish.

    Thanks for the suggestions, 1/4 Commander Kelby has just left us...

    See you tomorrow when Maquis Eddington and Richard Daystrom will requiere more sacrifices.

    Don't dump Daystrom. He's a Gauntlet beast.
