    So how did the purrson who had EV Mariner in the wheel have an ad-spin when it was clearly stated there would be no availability for ad-spins? Does it depend on the device they're on?
    Probably didn’t restart the client during all this. But it clearly exposes a vulnerability: the server allows the adspin regardless. This no adspin restriction they’ve imposed is just client-sided.

    Thankies for the clarification, Namer. :) I will try my single left-over ad-spin if Wunderland Taylor comes in the Dabo wheel. :)

    The pre-crew-retrieval credit sale on dabo showed with all clarity that the odds of pulling the legendary crew are abysmal. I've stopped spinning dabo since then, and I'm certainly not going to start throwing honor at it now, knowing that I almost certainly would need to clear the entire table to get the crew. *shrug*

    I also still think that the dabo design in the game is very misleading, as the different odds depending on the slot are not displayed. You could very reasonably assume that all slots have the same odds.
  • JhamelJhamel ✭✭✭✭✭
    The odds are on the Wiki though, Selene. :) But I agree with you, I usually only spin once. ^^

  • Today's wheel has Bell Riots Dax for me. That's even less worth blowing up to 87K honor on.

    I don't mind the devs trying something new, but at this rate I'm probably not spinning the wheel once this week.

    as a facebook app player, i don't get an ad spin. having it changed to honor only removes my once a day spin i was doing for credits.

    I think there were residual ads from the previous day. I had one that first day, but not today.

    So, normally I would do the credit spin and the ad spin. Now I'm going to be doing none. So as WRG looks at their metrics, they will see at least one less ad coming from me. And frankly, by offering a "sale" of something for of a more valuable currency, I'm right now less inclined to click on ads in other parts of the game, so their metrics might show that, also...

    By Grabthar's hammer, what a savings.

    Love this.
    Galaxy Quest is arguably the best Star Trek movie. (Though I might say top 5)

    I would happily clear the board for a Dr Lazarus "Timelines Original"

    Great idea. Dr. "Snape" Lazarus and Tech Sargent "Monk" Quinn. I'd pay real money for any of them.

  • not going to waste honour at all for a dumb Dabo spin...

    as a vip0, i need my honor. saving up for months and months and months for an honor sale.
    ~le sigh~

    Fellow VIP0 and I’m just laughing at this “sale.”
  • Agree. Not using Honor for Dabo spin. Who would spend 100 Honor for HMS Bounty? Maybe if rewards were nine 5* and five 4* (newer) or add in gauntlet past and present rewards. That would be a reason to spend Honor.

    I suppose the upshot is that I don't need to worry about when I collect voyages or packs to avoid (or slightly minimize) unnecessary items.

    You can accrue honor for free. Dilithium isn’t unless you play a lot of bad games on offer wall. I prefer honor to dilithium.

    I have pretty much gotten a kick out of it for a couple days. The legendary has been useless, so I just target spun for the purples and had a good time doing it.
    I get that it is not to everyone’s taste, but who exactly is a Dabo fanatic anyway?

    Plus not in the current portal. Honestly, I would do it also.
  • Veterinary PhloxVeterinary Phlox ✭✭✭✭✭
    Agreed. While I'd generally prefer two cites, the right crew would be worth 90k honor for me.

    I certainly understand that's not going to be the case for everyone. With 230k honor I'm not exactly swimming in it, but I could afford the splurge.

    Well i didn’t expect to play dabo at all this week, but I couldn’t turn this down. And even saved myself two full spins!

    I was lucky enough to get a copy of Vedala in the event, and I had four cites on hand. She's incredible!

    My guess is that in his demo tomorrow Ben will announce an honor sale to coincide with Star Trek day.

    And maybe what the next campaign is as well. It will probably be TOS like last year. I would love the guys from "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield".

    That’s too far away. Just make it a 2-3 week sale.
