    I dunno. I'm not one for screaming unfair, buuut...the klingons get a weapon and everyone else gets a non-com pet? Why?

    Because WE ARE KLINGON!!! Muhahahaha :D


    Also wondering, does this announcement mean we're not getting to visit Utopia Planetia?? :(

    Considering how small the Scimitar interior is, I'm afraid it's gonna be quite tight in there. That is, assuming it's gonna be an open instance, like in previous years.

    I'm disappointed that it sounds like we're not getting Utopia Planitia this year, though I would rather wish to see it as a more usable facility, interior and exterior, that we can visit any time.

    Actually, Ty'Gokor would be cool too, but I digress...>_>

    I am more curious to see what is planned for the 50th anniversary of The Cage, the TOS pilot.

    You stepped away? .... That fact marks a dark day for the Klingon Empire. :(

    Yeah I kinda lost interest with the mirror grind and that reputation revamp. Plus tired of waiting around for them to do what needs to be done with the KDF.

    So you build us up and get us excited with peaks at Season 9 with new blogs posts. Then post nothing about it on Thursday, Friday, and now Monday.

    Lame.
    That's typical of this sort of thing, or have you not been playing long?

    How dare they post a blog for an annual event that runs each year? :P

    Come on now, lighten up! :D

    I do believe that those have already claimed their 'prize' should be give something else, either a small amount of dilithium, marks or a festive popper and perhaps creating some new items next time to keep it interesting, like a jukebox that can be sent to the mess hall or captain's quarters. Just so the 'day' isn't a complete waste.

    "Commander Jarok is looking for assistance from brave and valiant captains of the Republic."
    "speak with Captain Shon on an important matter concerning the security of the Federation."
    "Captain Koren has a special task to complete before she and her crew can enjoy some well-deserved shore leave"

    Hmm something other then "Talk with the crew" this year?

    That's what I'm hoping, and by also having it on the bridge/s hopefully be solo instances too...

    They currently look like that on tribble, they were re-coloured for the new ESD interior, not sure if they're on holodeck yet.

    Oh great a melee weapon. :rolleyes:

    I guess I know what I’ll be seeing on ground STFs, a bunch of un-speck’ed, unskilled KDF players agroing everything in sight trying to hit something with their weapons and dying while doing it.

    Nothing but attention TRIBBLE saying, look at me, I have something new, look at what I have, me, me, me, yes, yes, yes look at me, swing, swing, swing, miss, miss, miss and die, die, die, but I have something new.

    I hate when I get stuck with them.

    It's that way currently on Tribble. Looks like the nuESD LCARS textures overwrote the ones for the Aquarius.

    Are Shon and the F's crew going to wear the Odyssey outfits? Ever since the Odyssey outfit was available, I've been actually kind of waiting for the F's crew to wear them. It disappoints me ever time I see them and they aren't in them.

    That, and I think the outfits are sharp.

    Actually... the blog makes mention of some sort of mini-mission, which sounds like the same one from last year. It was the mini-mission that took people to UP.
