    It is... But I bet you 50 Contraband, that before the next hour, there will be a "cra*load" of people crying "but klingons can't use it... Unfair..."...
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...

    4 outfits at once is much more than normal, and apparently it's going for 8 days this year. Makes me wonder how much they have to offer this time.

    Anyone have a guess as to what the ship giveaway will be?

    Wowzers!

    All i can say is THANK YOU CRYPTIC for such an epic giveaway.

    I had a couple already but the others are very welcome and the thought is always nice!

    Good job guys. B):)

    I would be happy if the anniversary gifts are things I don't already have!

    They're all cross-faction outfits, so anybody complainig about not being able to use it make themselves look stupid.

    I had already 2 of them from previous giveaways, nevertheless, good kob cryptic, thanks!
    I still have the practice schematic from the old crafting tutorial on Memory Alpha when it was bugged back in season 6 in my inventory. No option to discard it. I'd be glad if I could get rid of this Practice schematic before either the game or myself cease to exist. Thank you for your time.

    I'm sure it's gonna be a t1,t2,t3,t4 or t5 ship. Less to impossible chances for a t6 ship

    got all four of them as giveaways at various points anyway, guess i will wait until the anniversary event.
    T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW.
    Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.

    My F2P acct didn't have any of them, so that was very welcome. My lifer only had the formal, so the other three were also very welcome there.

    Can't wait to see what tomorrow's is. Gonna grab everything on my F2P and the lifer will get what they don't already have.

    Thank you so very much, Cryptic!
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.

    Aye, there are most certainly people silly enough to jump to that conclusion without even looking at the uniforms.

    That would be really nice. I always wonder what the reasoning was behind not doing it at the same time they did the T5 Ambassador. Now would be a perfect time to fix that mistake though.

    As for the Day 1 freebies, thank you very much Cryptic.

    My main account has all the uni's but my second account didn't so a very welcome addition to my wardrobe. And at a opportune time as well since I'm really not liking my current uniform and have been experimenting on new looks. :)

    My main only had the formal from a previous giveaway, but not the other three, so that was a welcome addition. My second acct has next to nothing, so it was a boon to her.

    I'm thinking of changing my Rom unis up to the Mercenary uniform as that's what they are.
    Now a LTS and loving it.

    I already had everything given today, but I will still say "Thank you for being generous for those who didn't have them already." But then again I know the world doesn't revolve around me.​​

    I'm pretty sure my lifer acct will have some of the giveaways planned already, but I was very happy to see them giving more costumes other than the formal. I didn't have the other three, so it was lovely.

    I have a F2P acct that has nothing, so anything she can get her little hands on will be appreciated.

    Console players don't have a separate anniversary event. We celebrate the games anniversary at roughly the same time those of you on PC do, so all this "it's not your anniversary it's ours" stuff needs to end. Console Players will hopefully get this giveaway later.

    Uuuggghhh. Clothes?! I wanted toys. JUST KIDDING! Thank you, Cryptic, for the free stuff. Four outfits in one day, I don't think we got that much last year. I already had two of them, but I'm glad they were included in the giveaway for those who didn't have them yet. I like the idea of giving a Romulan character the merc outfit. I might do that, too. Looking forward to tomorrow...
