I think you get this Avatar for YOUR 1 Year Anniversary, not the games. Someone else may know better though
Okay. I remembered something about it being mentioned when we got all those Mails last year. Like I said, thought about it yesterday when saw someone had it.
"The truth is like a lion; you don't have to defend it. Let it loose; it will defend itself."
Maybe the irony is that we play because we’re Star Trek fans, those hopeful idealists that like to think things will get better when we raise valid concerns about fairness and balance, etc and we forget that DB’s greed openly mocks the values espoused by the franchise they have a license

Yep. Alfadog is when you have been an in-game user for 365. Tribble is when you connect your in-game account to the forums.
Does it happen to tell you anywhere how long you've been in? Pretty sure my year should trigger next month, but just curious where that's stored.
It's a bit long winded, but I worked out how long I had been playing by scrolling back through my Event scores in the Fleet screen until I found the first Event that I played in (the ones before that all being zero). Then I looked in the game wiki to see when that event was played (though for the last year I think there has been 1 event each week so you could probably just count them). If you are looking up the Event name remember some of them have been played more than once, though.

That helped narrow it down, thanks. I also remember who the monthly 4* reward was when I joined, and used it to figure on the end of February. I think. Guess I'll just have to wait for my dog-icorn to be sure. Do you get a notification or anything on that day, or do you have to keep searching the avatars to see when it pops up?

You get no indication other than the avatar is available.
Please do not bump threads, thank you.
Your game account is not yet 1 year old hence why you cannot see this avatar yet.
There is nothing for you to do but be a bit more patient

Shan, following the thread, I think Knight Ranger was asking about the Tribble that you get when you get your game and forum account married up.

Oooh I missed that, thanks.
That was exclusively for players who were part of the Bridge Crew <b>prior</b> to the game being launched.

That may have been the original intent, but I got mine much later following some directions or other from the old forums.
You used to get the Tribble for opting into the Bridge Crew newsletter that they used to send out. I started a little after launch and got mine that way (and also how I eventually ended up with a free Mirror Spock )
Yep. Alfadog is when you have been an in-game user for 365. Tribble is when you connect your in-game account to the forums.
Which leads me to believe it has to do with linking the old forums and the new forums need to be changed to address this.
Ah, so it's an old forum thing then? I didn't get the tribble when I linked my acct back then, so it must have stopped between October '16 and February '17

How do we do that?
Free Tribbles you say?!?!?

EDIT TO ADD: I kept wondering "How do people get the Shatner Toupee?"
EDIT TO ALSO ADD:
I now have BOTH the Critters. Happy Anniversary and linking to me!!!!!!
I knew mine was close. Because I was playing before the Anniversary last year.
Also: Kruge's pet & I-Chaya (Spock's sehlat).
How do you do this?
here is how I got mine.....https://games.disruptorbeam.com/timelines
keep in mind I did get it 2 years ago.

I'm already down as a "Bridge Crew Member" on that screen. What else should I do?

One for the ultra-organised. :-)
Not in game. You need to figure it out from other sources. Or wait for the dog...
Just sayin
That would make a good second or third anniversary avatar......

Bump.

(I didn't join the game til October 2016)
And I DO have the Tribble.
Frank mentioned this:

Come to think about it Frank helped me with it back about a year ago
Sorry. I was just trying to find an answer to my question rather than typing it out again. Thought it might be classed as spamming if I did.
Yes, indeed.
