Aww, we crossed 1000 characters with no fanfare.

Sadly, it’s indicative of the state of the game itself...
My apologies if I missed a forum post about this.

That‘s still not correct. Crew for the next event is only 3 new. So we already had our 1000th crew.
They are going to acknowledge it, Shan said this last week.
Plus Ben had said there would be a crew slot sale this month, so I am assuming it's part of, or most of the celebration.
As WRG Ben Kenobi might say...
There were several threads about it last week, and the disappointment was palpable in every post. Apparently math is hard.
Here's my problem with that math -- quoting myself from the Jennifer Sisko thread last week, so "today" refers to Wednesday - after Sisko was released in her Tuesday back but before this week's event crew were added to the preview box:
I guess this is basically what I do in my head, but on paper that looks absolutely insane.
People only want to complain here anymore. This is remains a non-issue. As a player-base, we've become the worst examples of sci-fi fans. Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons would even read these forums and say "sheesh, people, lighten up....|
Far better to just say "Yay - we have over 1000 crew!" and leave it at that.
Ov (Overall) | Vo (Voyage) | Fa (Faction) | Ga (Gauntlet)
Sb (Ship Battle) | Bt (Boss Battle Traits) | Co (Collection) | (Cd (Cadet)
I prefer to order 998-1000 as such that Punk Rocker was.
The Comic Book Guy analogy is dead on. I swear some people only participate in fandom to hate watch (or play), and take a 💩 on it. I can't imagine being that miserable that would ever become enjoyable.
If my life ever becomes that bad, please toss me in an agonizer booth, and then toss my dying body out an airlock. It would be less painful.
By looking at the non DABO acquisition of crew, I think today's rewarding of Wyatt Miller for ranked rewards makes him 1000th
But if you include DABO then Wyatt Earp or Denal would be the 1000th crew.
If you go by the order of their inclusion in Cryo, then I guess last Tuesday's pack crew would be the 1000th. This probably is the easiest way to do it. Should be no conflict of who it was.
The actual 1000th crew in the vault was Jennifer Sisko. The issue was that when TP planned out who was going to be the 1000th card, the change to releasing the event details in game a week ahead of time wasn't factored in. So tomorrow (?) we're getting MACO Mayweather, who was the planned release, and it seems they have something planned to celebrate for crossing the 1000 crew threshold.
Yep, now that you said who it was, I remember her in the Tuesday Pack.
I think you are overstating the magnitude of the complaint.
That would be a nice easter egg like addition, though they could have it for anything 'robotic/ mechanical' so wonder if you could have an Exocomp as we already have Bynars
Hopefully everyone can realize that we should all be glad that there even is a 1000th character at all!
As far as I’m concerned, if TP/WRG do in fact decide to commemorate the occasion, but it comes a little late, that is no big deal to me. Everyone should take a moment and reflect on the all the belated birthday cards they’ve probably gotten in their years on this 🌎.
No real tragedy, especially given the chaos of the past week or two. I am reasonably sure that there were plenty of bigger fish to fry going on behind the scenes given everything happening, and I would rather those issues start to be put in order by the team before marking what is honestly sort of an arbitrary milestone.
I will admit that I goofed on Ben up thread, but I genuinely hope it was taken as the good natured joshing that I intended it to be, and not a mean spirited attack. The joke was just sitting there and I couldn’t resist!
Ben, if you’re listening, it’s okay...
Keep the targeting computer off and just trust in the Force!
Peanut Hamper for the win!!
