    Well, I already own all ships and all costumes except for the Counselor Troi outfit and that Racing thingy. I'm excited to see if there will be anything given away that I don't have ! :)

    I don't understand time differences. I'm in England, the midlands to be precise. Apparently 10am PDT is 6pm GMT, but whenever their is server maintenance scheduled for 10am PDT, it occurs at around 2pm here. Never mind, I'm a reasonably patient man.... reasonably!

    Yorkshire for me and it should be 6pm for us guys because normal maintenance occurring from 7am to 9am PDT occurs at 3pm to 5pm GMT (8 hour difference).

    Yeah it should be about 6pm. PDT is -7 hours to us. Add an extra hour because of British summer time. makes it -8 hours. SOOOO 6pm :D

    To help : Convertor here :D

    So if we assume each one starts when the dev blog goes up, that would be 6pm each day in the UK? Excellent. That means I will be able to get on Friday night to claim. And may be able to get Thursday, possibly.


    I look forward to seeing what goodies you are giving away.

    I don't normally post on the forums but I am glad they are doing a giveaway on the c-store, it's a good promotion.

    I am not complaining what they giveaway for feds, I already bought all the ships over the years I have played the game. Not bothered about outfits or anything, stick with what is free in that respect anyhow.

    I don't mind them not giving anything for the Romulans, as I always ally with the Feds on those characters and hence they have access to most of my fed ships.

    I am looking forward to getting some "promotional" giveaways from my Klingons though, don't own any stuff on that faction at all, so I still benefit from this in some way. :)

    Thanks in advance

    anybody not sure about time zones try the web site below

    http://www.worldtimebuddy.com/gmt-to-pst-converter

    put it on your favorites for future use.

    When I think about everything we've been through together,

    maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

     and if that journey takes a little longer,

    so we can do something we all believe in,

     I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

    You watch.
    Enh... sounds like a typical monday around here...

    You must have been skimming the thread. The ranting about that started a couple of days ago. :)

    So when's this start?
    latest?cb=20160406061118&path-prefix=en

    Dreadnought class. Two times the size, three times the speed. Advanced weaponry. Modified for a minimal crew. Unlike most Federation vessels, it's built solely for combat.
