    Well, got both FF, will be Honor for the drops of them from Threshold and Community.

    But, let me just add: Desert Archer?!?!? Can we PLEASE AND THANK YOU get a new 2* Desert Trip for the Threshold?!?!?

    {If Archer is from the episode where they join the terrorist leader {played by the awesome Clancy Brown} as dinner guests?}

    It could also be the Archer from the Lawrence of Vulcan trilogy of episodes.

    That was the other one I was thinking it might be. Since he did the desert thing twice.

    If so, I would hope he's renamed to Kir'Shara Archer.

    Probably that one to go with Desert T'Pol.

    There was a glitch during one of the events that occurred during the time change a few years ago.

    Forgot that. The simplest thing can make a computer code go "OWIE" sometimes, I guess.

    Remember when everyone thought we were all gonna get fried by out of control nukes when 1/1/2000 arrived?

    Some states in the US do not use Daylight Savings, and several more states are abandoning it as of next year. I would hazard a guess this will go away sometime in the future. It was originally designed for farming as I recall, and hardly necessary anymore.

    And make him a variant of Surak.

    I would like this, but only if Katra McCoy also counts as a variant of Spock (I'm pretty sure it was the same situation, though I might be wrong). It would also be appropriate considering Zhian'tara Odo counts as a Dax variant, including for next week's event.

    Anyway, I hope this is the Archer a lot of y'all have been waiting for for so long. Bon chance!

    As the counterpoint:
    Events with completely no new crew > "reruns" with a new gold being sold in a 1/16-1/20 pack (instead of the normal 1/8 to 1/10 pack)

    thanks as always for the info Shan - who else can't wait to do this to all of their disco crew on Monday??
    Already did it to a few of them. Realized Siranna and Sarek were never going to get on a shuttle (unless I send out 16 of them). But yeah, it's going to be glorious! (Said in a TOS Kor voice)

    The tune change is a real thing. They do it every fall and spring. It’s super depressing. You leave for work and it’s dark, you leave for home and it’s dark. They need to stop doing it. It starts getting dark at damn near 4:00 in the afternoon

    Totally agree. I much prefer the summer time shift. If they want to make that permanent, I'm all for it.

    Yep. Even down here in Florida it’s dark at 5 when I’m heading home from work. Hate it.

    No, (EDIT: There has been only 1 previous flashback event, and ?) the threshold rewards stop at 350K:

    The next event will be a flashback event and will have the more recent rewards structure.

    Are we getting Honey bare Jadzia at 400k then?

    No.
    I am not sure we are all talking about the same thing because I see a bunch of different things being thrown around. You will see the rewards structure next Wednesday once the event is announced.

    The flashback event will have the same rewards structure as the previous flashback event.
    So it is not a rerun, there is no new crew and the old crew will not be in threshold rewards.
