Ummm, hello? Don't we have a forum here, and doesn't it allow polls also? So why are we having to sign up for another account to vote for a mega event? omg
I'd like to see the Dominion War, preferably with Moogie as the recurring 5*. One event based on the Magnificent Ferengi, guest starring Iggy Pop as Yelgrun
Most anticipated character not in the game: Mr. Homn
Yeah so who says we don't want Iggy Pop? Or Jeffrey Combs? Or Molly Hagan?
Come on, while we luvs Quantum Leap very, very much, we does needs a Dominion Mega Event so hard it hurts more than The Rock. We all know Burnham wouldn't stand a chance against any Vorta, she's too young and unmeasured, and Kirk would be caught with his pants down. As always.
There's only one option here, ladies and gentlemen, and we know exactly who we're voting for!
Also, didn't we kill off the Ferengi Traditionalist in some event last year? Why do they still exist? Why do we have two Ferengi factions but only 15 total Ferengi in the game?
Same with why do we have Hirogen faction but exactly 3 Hirogen in the game?
I went DS9 and Cardassian. Can't think that will happen though. Probably end up with yet another blooming Burnham incarnation and fake Sarek or Mudd infesting the crew roster.
I voted to have all non-canon versions of Burnham for the whole month. Everyone'll be happy with that.
Actually Magisse, I can say with absolute certainty that not everyone will be happy with that. It is like the iPhone commercial where the dude says that everybody loves the iPhone. Well, they don't.
As for Burnham, other than her being rather cute (from my eyes view), I particularly do not care for any of the versions. Prisoner was air-locked before when even left the space port. Graduation is holding how own. And Tactical and Prospect are just a planet away from being jettisoned.

Unfortunately, the forums only account for a relatively small percentage of the player base, and so the idea was probably that more people have accounts with Google than they do with the forums.
And requiring an account to vote is a bonus way to make sure people only vote once.
It’s not perfect, but if I were them, I wouldn’t have foreseen this being a big problem. After all, a lot of players use Android, and a lot of people have Google accounts for all sorts of different reasons. (Not to mention the prevalence of Google Sheets in the Ready Room.)
Just remember... when we wanted a mirror event, DB gave us a TNG comics event. The way this is worded, if enough people vote for TOS and Augments, we could be looking forward to a whole month of Ice Pirates Chekov.
Don't you mean Defiant Comander Burnham with Vorta Janeway?

That's his superpower and all of a sudden Vorta would not just be made by cloning
Why not do the poll here rather than having to log in to google?
Probably because of the first question
But the first question states that they want your email associated with your DBID to ensure a unique vote. So, if they are doing that, then they should be able to change the form. From Google:
Can you fill out a Google form without a Google account?
Normally, everyone can fill out a Google form; they do not need an account. However, if you selected the option "Can submit only 1 response" in your Google form, that will require the users to login. So, if it's necessary to allow anonymous users, you should uncheck that option.
The option to require a gmail account is not necessary, especially if they are identifying with the DBID email.
I went with Deep Space Nine and Dominion. I might have gone with Augments and TOS (movies) if that was an option.
I love Next Gen, but I feel like this game usually gives us a lot of TNG content. I'm really pulling for DS9 or TOS to win here.
I also voted DS9/Dominion, but now that I think I've given it some more though I probably should have gone with Enterprise since the series gets so little love in terms of characters (so many random one-off characters to use, more Archer, etc). Enterprise/Dominion or Enterprise/Cardassian.
In any case, I hope a weird combination wins. TOS/Ferengi, Voyager/KCA, whatever. Weird combos make it all the more interesting.
Sooooo... Instead of vote for what Faction and what Series we want in the Mega we get vote for what Faction and what Series we like most... those are not same thing!!!
Count me among those who find it super-sketchy that DB can't just run a poll on their own site/forums, and instead requires you to have a separate sign-up to vote in this poll..... it might have something to do with preventing multiple votes from one person or something, but still...
For me, the poll isn't even really about picking a Mega Event. It's about picking general favorites, and maybe a mega-event will service you.
I refuse to jump through DB's extra hoops, so if they choose to anecdotally add my opinion, it is this:
(1) Other than Uhura (Mirror) there has been zero TOS involvement in any Mega-Event.
(2) This is very wrong.
(3) Unless they are counting Sarek and Harry Mudd's DSC versions.
(4) Which is even more wronger, if they are.
(5) So how about some TOS, already?
(6) T'Pau for Event 5* (huge DIP, secondary SCI). Alternative: The Guardian of Forever (all stats Maximum~!).
(7) Other crew: Captain/Movie Spock, Romulan Sarek (and how about making an overall Romulan sub-plot,too?), Squire of Gothos, Bela Oxmyx, Jojo Krako, Scotty's Lawyer, Kirk's Lawyer, Both Deckers, Mr. Atox, Gary Seven, Balok, Shopping Cart Pike, and of course, Spock's Brain. In no particular order.
I say all of this as a person who was born after the first two Star Trek movies came out, but who had a dad that made sure I was versed in the classics before I could get all super-nerdy about NextGen...
Instead of a new mega event, you know what I'd like to see? A new event type!
Going back and forth between galaxy and faction is getting stale. And I'm sorry, but hybrid isn't exactly a third option. Expedition would be a third option, but it doesn't seem to be too popular around the DB conference room table. Fine, replace expedition with something else then.
So @DB, what do say? Instead of pouring all those creative juices into a new mega event, how about focusing on a third event type to add to the weekly rotation?

I voted Dominion* and TOS.
Mostly to make @ErisTheVorta happy

Given the only options above Dominion seems the most likely option for a mega event so I went with cardassian because Dukat did nothing wrong.
So, I vote for Voyager and Cardassians.
Unless they are planning a Romulan event between now and the summer mega event ? Hmmmm
And, as a thought, voting for Augment would be the best idea. So we would have more augment options to collect for the collections

Didn't cared enough to lie so didn't voted.
I want to vote, but I guess I don't get a say in the matter...
