    The Q. Irritating being, as this Captain has heard on several occassions. It seems that even my crew will not be spared of Q's unremarkable appearance, then. I have heard, that one of the Captains has punched Q in the past. Perhaps, this Captain could follow in captain Sisko's footsteps, rather than being indulged in such irrelevant discourse as this, while there are real dangers out there?

    Please, please, please get rid of the flags at the end of the races and bring in some tech to detect who actually finishes in which position after crossing the line!

    Thanks

    This would be one of the best changes they could make.

    Who do I believe? Q or The Lizard King?

    I'd go with Q. Previous event ships have been available the past two events, and the new ship has a console that's part of a set with the last two winter ships.

    First of all: Which Q is hosting this year's wonderland? On the pictures, it's the Q's little Q that does, same as last years. But here on the forum, it's the one most beloved Q.


    Second: While I liked the more rustical look of the gazebo before, I guess I¨ll like this one as well. So when it comes to art, the blog, the 'rp' of it all, that's very nice indeed.


    Third: Why are you reducing the number of PvP races from 4 per hour (:15, :22, :45, :52) to only 2 per hour (:15, :22)? I could say the same for the Snowman attack. This time it's only happening once per hour instead of twice.

    Given all those events take place in different places (the borgified snowmen apparently attack in a new part of the map per the blog), why can't they run concurrently? Let players choose where they wanna be!

    Let them grind, let them grind
    Can't hold them back anymore
    Let them grind, let them grind
    Turn my back and slam the door
    And here I stand
    And here Ill stay
    Let them grind, let them grind
    The lack of fun never bothered me anyway

    Agreed :(

    If you're gonna change it to that, at least keep the original Sarr Theln for use as an alternate appearance.

    Seriously if, after the years of wishing to captain the in-game Sarr Theln, they give us this... Two years I've been looking forward to the possibility of the Sarr Theln, and now, a week or so after I find we'll get it, it turns into that. :(

    Timegating the events kills all the fun for me.

    I'll get my T6 Sarr Theln Carrier, perhaps do some doff assignment, and forget about the Wonderland. I've got no time nor patience to grind the timegated activities.

    Please tell me they don't adapt, that's a very annoying mechanic and the main reason I don't play Borg ground missions and queues.

    Exactly! If they don't offer that as a skin and the ship isn't the Sarr Thein, then I will not be bothering with the grind this year.

    And a Warp Core/Singularity Core. If they stopped having the old ones available after all that has been nerfed to DR and beyond I would hate to see what lights up on the forums then.

    I would presume that, if you still have an uncompleted Winter Event Ship Project from a previous year, you'd be allowed to complete that mission to claim that previous year's ship.

    Well, that's how it worked anyway last year when folk still had the project uncompleted for 2012's Chell Grett. The same was the case for the Risa Summer Event this year when folk had uncompleted projects for last year's ship.

    I really can't see things being any different this year to be honest. I was able to claim both ships on some of my toons this year (Summer) for an example. Simply because I didn't have time to finish the previous Event, last year.

    So yea, I'd say it's a safe bet that previous years ships will return IF you had an uncompleted project.

    I really cant say anything about what the case will be if you've never taken part in the event before and don't have any uncompleted projects though. :confused:

    I got the Risian Corvette without having ever started before this year (as well as the Cruiser).
    This is my Risian Corvette. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
