Events Next to Be Replayed

Disclaimer: There's nothing requiring DB to replay any events in any order, if at all.
In case it's of any help to anyone trying to figure out which of their backlog of crew members to equip and level, here are the next events that are in line to be replayed per format. Keep in mind that event replays to date have largely been in the original sequencing, but that they have bounced between formats. For instance, they may replay Faction Event A and B, and then do Galaxy Event A, even though originally, Galaxy Event A took place between Faction Event A and B.
FACTION
"The Big Sting" (04-20-2017)
5* Gangster Kirk
4* Anastasia Komananov (rank)
4* Detective Dixon Hill (threshold)
GALAXY

NOTES
- Convergence Day events, Mega-Events, and Expeditions are presently excluded from the replay schedule.
- "Dictators, Unite!" has been passed over, presumably because this is their U.S. Election Day event.
- "Endgame" has been passed over, possibly because of changes in the 5* crew in replays and the original event having two 5*'s (The Traveler, rank; Lieutenant Wesley Crusher, pack-only).
- Skirmishes are new enough they're unlikely to be replayed for quite awhile, though anything is possible!

This event was so strange, in fact that DB had us vote to kill off one of the crew, remember? Well, Beowulf Kim was the choice most voted to kill off. Yet......Beowulf Kim is still available. So what did we vote on? I guess nothing. Think about that.

Worth remembering, of course, is that at least one substitution will be made for the replay, so it may not be helpful even if it comes back around.
In all honesty, I forgot that part entirely. That was definitely an unexpected plot twist for what was a thinly veiled Christmas event.
Merry Men 22 Dec 2016 could be a Faction event this time around.
As long as nothing that wasn't a Galaxy Event becomes one of those, I'm down.

Good catch. I'll update to note "Blood and Circuses". Not sure why I skipped over it.
That's true I forgot they do that. Shame, there's some nice crew I have that could use some repeat love. I guess I'll have to hang onto them and hope.
Still, that's a nice list. We should run a pool to see what we think is going to run next? The first five at least have some legendaries I think people would lust over, so DB would do well to run those sometime in between mega events I reckon. I'm going to go with 'Ribbon of Joy' as my best guess for a most likely expedition, but we're gonna have Convergence Day surely next time. The Isthmian Games is my next guess for a faction rerun

Unfortunately, it's the Legendaries that get swapped out for replays, so you're better off hoping for the 4*'s to come back around.
If 2017 is any indication, "Ribbon of Joy 2" may well be the only Expedition we get this year. Although, they did actually leave the 5* in place for the one Expedition rerun last year ("Quadrilateral") and simply added a new 4*. I'd be happy if "Ribbon of Joy 2" retained Age of Sail Crusher as the 5* and introduced a new 4* to go along with Dr. Tolian Soran. Perhaps Age of Sail Worf or Troi? Or maybe something like Orbital Skydiving Kirk, based on that deleted scene from Generations that managed to get made into an action figure?
Most of the time it is the legendary but that's not always been hard and fast, as with the cast you mentioned for Quadrilaterial.
DB has a tendency to throw us exceptions when we least expect it. Sometimes beneficially
"Blood and Circuses" replay (third run overall)
"Dictators, Unite!"
"A Brute Squad" replay (third run overall)
Not coming back to "Blood and Circuses" or "A Brute Squad" just yet is one thing, but to have skipped entirely past "Dictators, Unite!" is somewhat curious. Maybe they're reserving that exclusively for the weekend before U.S. elections. In any event, provided they're not going to come back to it out of order, and that "Circuses" and "Brute Squad" are being set aside, the next Faction event in line to be replayed should now be "Rule 125". Something to consider next time you're waffling about keeping Ferengi who drop in your voyages.

Ewww. Having to run the same thing over and over and still not getting the star when you crit. No thanks...
Having the event be nearly brain dead after the first ticket and VPs nearly constant. The only way left to gain rank is mindless grinding for the final 100 points at a time or buy more tickets, no thanks. DB ruined the event type by making it too easy.
Mindless grinding with RNG, vs Mindless grinding without RNG? (if playing the eps is essentially mindlessly grinding......Event and bonus characters weren't guaranteed node claim, just better chance of in the old rules.
Less RNG, to me at least is better. Could they do some things to toughen the event up? Yes. Maybe put the timer back on per ticket. But the hey you might get it you might not on the nodes was pretty much Gauntlet RNG sometimes.
The current setup is too easy I agree, but the original sucked IMO (sometimes exhausting crew after crew and still not getting the stars). If it was the original I suppose red shirting would return...
Some of what they tried in between the original and what we have now helped.
1:00 tickets
Featured Crew guaranteed to crit
Bonus Crew increased chance to crit
That was a fun event, and still my favorite.
My first event, so it will always have a special place in my heart. (:
Your first event was an Expedition? WOW. I would sincerely love to hear about the impression that event made on you then.
Honestly? At first it was more than a little confusing. I was newly level 9 or something, had just joined a fleet (Vulcan Axiom, I think there’s someone from there who hangs out on the forums), and I remember asking them a lot of stupid questions. Most likely, I had levelled up enough to participate in the middle of it. So I was really brand new.
Pretty sure 3* Constable Odo was thresholds, instead of a 2*, and he was my best sec/cmd for a while, because I levelled him up for the event after getting one of him from thresholds, once I saw the bonus he got.
I think this was back when the starting # of crew slots was like, somewhere in the neighborhood of 35-45? So I didn’t have very many crew at all, probably not even enough to fill the slots. And back then, I kept 1*s and all 2*s.
Ran them until I exhausted every one of my crew, which did not take an hour. Felt kinda wasteful starting a new ticket when I had time on the other one, but oh well.
I liked it, and it mostly made sense to me once I read the rules. Couldn’t really understand at that point how there were people who could crit them all on every difficulty.
I was not expecting the rest of the events to be totally different, though.
I didn’t check the forums or even read the wiki all that much back then. Just sort of tried to muddle through with my fleetmates for help.
Honestly, it felt like running away missions except instead of having a limited number of chrons, I had a limited number of crew. Which, running away missions felt like the core of the game at that point. I didn’t have VIP yet, so no warp (since warp was VIP 1+ only then), so I had to manually run all of the missions for farming items anyway.
Other event formats only really started to make sense to me later on.
That's fantastic. Quite an introduction to events!
brought back memories... it was Merry Men, my first event was expedition as well... I didn't know what I was doing, 2* worf was my best! I still have GI Chakotay at 3/4...
the following event I thought it was gonna be the same, with tickets. The starting day of the event or the day before I received some sorrytons, and I said, cool, I can level my crew! I spent everything and had nothing left for the event, best error ever! I still managed to rank 17465 apparently, possibly the same rank I'll reach next week in galaxy clearing all thresholds!
That event was my first support ticket. (:
I accidentally airlocked GI Chakotay instead of Worf, which I already had a copy of (and he’s still being used in my cadets today), and Support gave him back to me. (:
I have the crew to crush it in all four, but the only one I'm eager for would be "Gods and Masters" since I still need two stars for Sybok and three for Durango Troi. Being a Galaxy, though, I'm cool with it being a ways off. 'Specially since I'm apparently gonna grind it out next week for a second star for Grand Nagus Rom.
It’d be a shame if that was the case; I only need one more star on Gangster Kirk and don’t have the dil to spend on today’s pack.
Eh, the soonest "The Big Sting 2" would run would be the Fourth of July, after the June Mega. I doubt by then anyone will even remember they ran that pack for 48 hours here in the end of May.
