Dear Cryptic,

As there will be people who will be away for parts of the event please extend it by at least two or three weeks.

    I have to agree, the time to get the promotional ship is excessively grindy with little time left in case of travel, cos you know something about a big fat dude and some presents...

    Wow, that must be a record. We usually have to wait a week for these "Extend the event" threads but to see one appear before the event even starts is a first for me.

    So over a month and a half is NOT long enough? Have you seen when it ends (middle of January 2015)?

    WELL, THEY MUST EXTEND

    WE AlReaDY MISSED 30 MINUTeS DUE TO SERVER PR0B13M5


    I AM SIMPLY SO IMPORTANT THAT I CAN DEMAND IT TO BE EXTENDED

    THEY SHOULD ALSO REALIZE THAT THE COST FOR SHIPS IS 17 TIMES TOO BIG AND MUST BE NERFED




    /sarcasm


    The funny thing is, they will probably extend it as well. They did so at least in 2012, can't remember 2013 tbh.

    Yes and even though I already have over 1300 saved up from previous years I want to have 2000 saved up for next years. Besides, think of the children!

    Why not just get rid of the event end altogether and keep Risa and Q's Winter Wonderland open perpetually?

    Hell. I think they should bring a Breen starbase and playable faction.

    Bring in X-wings and Tie fighters as Breen ships. Add a Deathstar as the starbase.

    They need to extend it to the next Winter Event. Just close it the day before. I think that's plenty of time.

    Seriously? This is your job, you are not supposed to go on vacation or take time away from it. If you choice to take this time away, then it's your own fault!



    Did the sarcasm come through right?

    Hense the /sarcasm. There is gonna be enough people complaining about this, I just wanted to be ahead of the ignorant people who will bring up this point.

    This is true. At the time of this posting, still technically 8 minutes till it starts.

    They should not need to extend it, there was talk in another thread from people (not me) to boycott the winter event. So there should be plenty of room for the rest of us to play and take full advantage.

    I applaud the OP for doing this thread at an new and innovative time.


    Being serious, could it be extended? Winter is December, January and February, and one of those is completely missed.
