It's fixed on Tribble now. I am hoping the fix goes live this week on Thursday, that way you can grab it before the event ends on Friday. Plans are subject to change, but that's how it is looking currently.
Cheers,

While 24 hours to wrap it up is cutting it close, the plan that could be subject to change should really be planning to give it an additional week. It ran during an event that was almost a month long with no fix. A few extra days for those who may not get to play Thursday Friday seems equitable.

IF it doesn't, or it ends up not fixing the issue for some reason, would you look at either extending the event or rescheduling for a special week to allow us to get it?
1 day at best is still hardly fair, the event should run at least a whole week after the event goes live.
I mean really, there is a freaking mountain where it doesn't belong, thats not even a bug, that is someone messing with stuff that was already working and letting it go live.

Please extend the feature run for the people who have not had the chance to grab the last lobi.
Or at least extend only the scavenger hunt itself, if possible...

Could you please name one solid reason why the team cannot or won't extend the event for at least several more days? It's been bugged for a month, it hasn't been fixed for a month and people clearly want that final lobi, if only for the accolade for their new characters (Romulans? You know, the brand new faction you've introduced?). I honestly wonder why would the team be against such a seemingly obvious decission...

It's a small thing in comparison to other issues, but somehow it's nagging on the soul.
I think it was an unintended side effect of some kind of environment work you guys did behind the scenes (PS: The Iconian Gateway in the mission "A Light in the Dark" is a victim of this work as well, although it doesnt hinder gameplay in this case). Happens. A nice little gesture would be another week for people to get the Lobi & Accolade. We got a lot of server downtime during the first week of the event, so it would even out i think. I know you have things planned, but somehow i doubt this would be harmfull.
lol indeed, so the cold storage lobi MIGHT be fixed 24h before the month long rerun series ends?
Fail cryptic logic, this was a well reported bug before LoR launch on tribble and you didnt fix it : then you decided to start a featured episode rerun event and still didnt fix it for that and despite knowledge that it was still broke and your currently running the lobi event : decide not to fix it till a day or two is left on the rewards...
I think extending the rerun a week is reasonable considering that there's a fix being added to one of the rewards.
You recognize it's broken because you've got a fix going in. That's great news; but when the fix does go in, give people a reasonable amount of time to take advantage of it.
I don't think there would be any downside to extending a week, would there?
As a relatively new player, I'm curious to see what the end of the rerun means. Do those episodes drop out of the current game content, to be replace by other episodes?

Nah. The episodes themselves are always available. The only thing that is time limited is the special rewards. You can still get some very nice stuff from them normally, it's just that when a re-run is up you can get additional special mission rewards. So no worries about missing out on any content.

So.....
I'm mostly concerned with the unique BOFFs. Will I have to find a way to play those missions before the reruns end, in order to get the BOFFs?

Yes, if you want the Boffs, Shard or Cane, you will have to run those 4 missions at least to get the items...and seems from Brans post we will have 1 day to complete the Lobi accolade also.

So I have received these rewards on one toon , but is it possible to get them on a new toon I just rolled, if I group with a LVL 50 friend and he bumps me up to lvl and shares the quests? Or will I just have wait till they decide to do this again?

You can get them on all characters but you would need to be the minimal level each episode requires. Teaming with a level 50 player won't allow you to get them if you're not the actual level.
You can skip most missions to get to the missions you want but there are some missions you won't be able to skip and have to complete. It's usually the first mission in the story arc and generally just has you go to a certain location and talk to a specific NPC though. You also need to have the episode yourself for the ones that give the special rewards and either complete all missions up to it or skip all others first, completing only the missions you can't skip. So there really isn't any way to bypass the system using another player.
Actually you have 8 hours, as of right now. According to my World Clock, local time for Cryptic HQ is 2am. The event ends at 10am Cryptic HQ local time, 8 hours from now. Good luck.

The "Insallation 18" mission now is bugged, and we cant complete it. Rinna Khev is not beaming out. Please fix the mission before end of rerun.
