    Hi Shan,

    So the previously announced anniversary special crew will *NOT* be part of this event?

    Where did you get that from?

    Who do you think "Event Crew" refers to?

    That would be:

    Mariachi Q
    Tourist Quark
    Graduation Burnham


    That is why OTHER variants of those Crew get the "Small Bonus".

    There are 'four friends' in the anniversary announcement. Some have speculated they are the new Gauntlet and Honor Hall characters, but again, speculation.

    How many Crew are usually in an Event?

    2* for the lower Threshold Rewards
    4* for the Threshold Reward
    5* for the Ranked Rewards
    4* for the Ranked Rewards
    3* for the Ranked Rewards

    Mariachi is the 5* Ranked. That would leave four. That is the way I took it.

    This is the announcement Shan made in Communications Forum:

    Greetings, Captains!

    Next week it will be our great honor to celebrate our 2nd Anniversary with you.
    We have a few surprises planned for you on Tuesday, January 9th, expect an in-game mail on that day.

    Mariachi Q will be the Master of Ceremonies, it.. it will be interesting! He will be joined by 4 other guests in our Anniversary Event starting on Thursday 01/11. It will be quite the party, and we hope you will join in.

    That sounds kind of clear. Q and four others IN THE EVENT.

    If so, that's kinda weak especially considering last year.

    Doing exactly what they advertise is "kinda weak"?

    People read into the post things Shan did NOT say. In no way is that her fault.



    Scott


    Did I say it's Shan's fault? No.
    What did I say? That new 2-3 2x4 and 1 5 is weak as an anniversary event if that is the case compared to last year. That's almost like just another weekly event. And last year was better if that speculation is the case..

    Last year there were multiple 5s obtainable, one even as a community reward on the galaxy. (COP Picard and CD Quark were the two 5s there.)

    Did I say they advertised differently? No. Did I call DB Liars, No.

    I SAID WEAK COMPARED TO LAST YEAR IF THAT WAS THE CASE. It's called making a comparison of current vs past events.

    Please pick up the clue phone.

    Well, I was just replying to what you said about what I said.

    I said that the Event most likely has the other four Crew mentioned.

    Then you quoted me, and said:

    If so, that's kinda weak especially considering last year.

    I took that to mean that the five referring to the five from the Event to be "weak". {The part in Italics is a QUALIFIER, and AMPLIFIES the first part of the sentence. Now, you want it to be taken as a stand-alone thing. I replied to the whole sentence.

    Wait, are we getting Mariachi Q for free? Because the post in Starfleet Communications seems to infer that.
  • [7TW] UnkieB[7TW] UnkieB ✭✭✭✭✭
    Yes, you'll get a free one in your in game mail
  • RennJaxoRennJaxo ✭✭✭✭✭
    Nevermind, confirmed in a different thread. Celebration times indeed!

    If he doesn't have a sound clip saying "Au contraire, Mon Capitan. HEEEE'S BAAAAACK!!!" then I will have a sad.

    A new quark to match the quark from last year, This Q looks like a celebration Q and works with the Q pack they included. Graduation Burnham, well maybe it'll be Graduation Day this year. All they need is to add convergence Quark as an extra community reward. Just wait until Monday or Tuesday and see what Shan announces.

    Called it!

    Frankly, you still took out of it what was not there. Amplified or not, it does not state whether it was a lie or false advertisement. I did a comparison. And frankly advertising 4 'friends' and ones a cadet and ones an adv cadet is kinda like saying your car gets 6 tires and two are spares (those rubber donut things), lol. Its accurate, but again...weak. Not a lie. I never stated nor accused anyone of such.

    Now Free Q vs Threshold CD Quark... honestly that takes some weak sauce out and gives folks a chance to do well in the event even though there are all new crew. That part is nicely done.

    I'm greedy.
    I'm hoping this has a modified prize table like last year's anniversary event and there is another Q at 20,000.

    Looking at his stats and the 2 skill factor, that would motivate me to buy a pack in hopes for a 3rd.. otherwise.. may not pull.

    But thanks for the Q.
    Good art :)

    .. And im still hoping for Convergence Day II Next week.

    Don't care that it would be 2 of the same 3 event crew.

    My Mariachi Q is level 90, waiting on two basic holoprograms for his 5* social lesson. Can anyone comment on Q's last four items?

    I don't know if I'll pull an event pack now. That other pack they released looks good for me. I have Robin Hood at 3/4 and Princess Jadzia at 1/4.

  • The Discovery crew have some of the highest stats in the game, due to power creep. Let's hope they're included.

    Wouldn’t that be a kick in the gonads for all the people who “automatically shove every STD character out the airlock” 😝

    No, since I would have to actually care about this game anymore for it to be.

    STD pixels get shoved out the airlock by rote. It's one of the few aspects of the game I really enjoy.
  • Ugh, why Q? I hate him but at least the stats are good enough to use him, otherwise I would have unenlisted him.

    Wow I'm really not in the Discovery corner, but it sounds like you need a break or some therapy.

    My STD crew are at the very bottom of the priority list (except for First Officer Saru and the mostly-free T’Kuvma) but I don’t airlock them...
