    They also guessed every series before Enterprise, because Enterprise is the redheaded stepchild.
    What gets me is they monitor these forums. They know we had calculated roughly when we would get number 1000 and no one looked at their schedule and noticed a discrepancy.
    Even with a non-iconic crew, they could have hyped it a bit more, if done right. Plus, if he's A pack too, why couldn't they just switch them? None of today's crew were from episodes having anniversaries today or now abouts. They can be for any week.
    TP= Turn and Pivot...Bait and switch...Mistakes happen and can be laughed off and forgiven. Incompetence... Incompetence should live hard and die harder.

    I just posted a dead simple solution. That apparently not even an intern brought up.....

    Folks, you know what, next week we're going to celebrate over 1000th crew in the game.
    And for future crew milestones, we'll come up with a better approach.

    Okay. No offense meant at all to you. We understand that you are the meesenger. But, whatever spin the company makes on it, Jennifer Sisko is still going to be the actual 1000th Crew. Ben apparently said on Timeline Talks "We try not to be too specific about upcoming things" and then apparently immediately said "MACO Mayweather is going to be the 1000th Crew".

    It's just another thing for people to observe that the company didn't get right. So, people are going to observe that. Easy fix? Add Mayweather to the Cryo Vault before the Tuesday Pack dropped. Even if he is not being celebrated until next week. We know people can be added a week ahead of time. The Event Crew are now. I wonder why the obvious solution to the error never occurred to a single person in any of the meetings.

    I'm not trying to sound harsh to the company. Just pointing out that there was a simple way to avoid the incident.

    Thank you, Shan, for being our liaison with the company. Sorry they keep handing you messes!

    Or realize that the #1000 was coming up, and that they “committed” to Mayweather, so instead of having Beach Dream Jenny as this week’s 6-pack card, go with MACO Mayweather instead.

    Again, not that the 1000th HAD to be Mayweather. It is just that he was announced as the 1000th. And sometimes you have to take a win, no matter how small. When you have taken 3 bad beats in a row on the river, sometimes you just need to take down the blinds with your pocket kings just so you can scoop a pot. No matter how small that pot is.

    Unless he is going to be the 1500 crew next week. In which case, yeah. Stuff happens. You can’t fix that one. I get it.
  • So MACO-gate or Mayweather-gate? :)

    Unfortunately, "we'll come up with a better approach" can easily mean "we won't say; it'll be a surprise" in the future. I don't think that's an improvement for the players. And, honestly, if I were TP and getting a "damned-if-we-do-damned-if-we-don't" response, I'd go with a "damned if we don't" approach and not say in the future. It was all presented as likely, not a certainty, that it was Mayweather; parse Ben's words all you want, that's how it came off to me. We do know this Mayweather is coming, which isn't bad. So, everyone, please lay off; stuff happens, which we know, and circumstances dictated a change. It is what it is.

    So, did he say "MACO Mayweather might be the 1000th crew", or "MACO Mayweather will be the 1000th crew"? Just curious.

    Doesn't that give you a little pause as well? That TP, and the guy at the head of the conpany, doesn't understand their own release structure well enough to be able to give with certainty a confirmation of what crew will be released, in what order, just a few weeks out at a given time?
  • Jennifer (our Jennifer) finally in the game. And she is the 1000th crew member too. <3

    Too bad she didn't survive Wolf 359. The story of her dying in 2366 and Ben and Jake living years without her is one of the saddest stories in fiction. :cry:

    We didn't change our minds regarding who the 1000th crew would be.
    Having the event crew announced and visible one week in advance muddies things a bit however :)

    I'm sorry, I need someone to break this down for me, I'm not following the numbers logic.

    The problem is event crew being released in the preview screen early? By that we're meaning Punk Rocker, this week's 4* threshold and 5* ranked rewards? Because they were already in the vault but not available?

    So pull them out, Jennifer Sisko is 997, but this week's event cards will STILL be available in game before Maco Mayweather is, whether they were released into the vault early or not doesn't change the number alignment?

    If Maco was released TODAY then I understand how the preview hub screwed up the count, but in that event he'd be #998 of what's "available" (except once they're in vault they're fair game for the Dabo appearance anyway).
