Chek Grett Warship

So the patch fix for the winter event was a bit of a dud.

Still 1000 for an alt toon to claim.

Got one two years ago (before rep system) and got one last event for a new toon.

So this year doesn't look like I'm getting one for my Rommie Engie, not enough days left to grind out the remaining 920 autographs.

Thanks PWE for another Fail

    you have plenty of time if you just run the race once a day... only need 25 wins.

    event doesnt end till 1/15 or last day to run it would probably be 1/14 if you run it after work in evening.

    Strange as I could claim it for 40 pics on a new alt even before the patch. Tho yes, I ground it out like 2 years ago...

    It looks like the issue is those who got the Chel Gret the first year, before the current Reputation System was designed, are the ones not getting the discount.

    There's been some discussion on how we might address this, but I have no idea where that stands.

    So, for now, to get the discount one has to complete the Reputation project on at least one character at the full 1000 cost. The discount is looking for the completion of that initial project. If you acquired the ship any other way than via the Reputation project, the discount will not apply. That's my understanding of the issue.

    why does it seem when someone tries to rush and get now now now new shiny this that. they always break their game. the game is proberly coded to take 20 days to finish and these people drop the ship 6 days in and the game breaks.

    yep, long as you get the pics it doesn't matter when you enter them... well you have to have start the projects during the event but otherwise your fine.

    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    This looks to be real annoying for those affected. I do know for myself and I've seen from others in chat, that in my case I got the Gret the first year it was out and have had no problems claiming it on any other toons. So on this basis it would appear there is an exception to what frost was saying as is also noted elsewhere.

    I really hope they fix this for those guys and gals suffering from the problem. :confused:

    Yeah. One of the greatest gifts to couch potatoes everywhere. The Food of the Gods, every since Doo-Dads disappeared from store shelves.


    I love the stuff like Rick James loves cocaine.

    Rick James? Given the cocaine reference, guessing some kind of dude who died of an addiction and my friend Google says the same.

    Yeah, that's the one. One of the legends of the music biz. Coined the phrase that became an internet meme later on: "Cocaine is a hell of a drug!".



    And I still LOVE freakin' Chex Mix. :D

    I hope so too being one of the long-time players being affected. They seem to be testing a fix so credit where its due on that.

    Might be a stupid question: i want to get the Chell Grett for my Main Toon. Do i also get a discount for the Carrier?

    And do i just need to get them or do i have to unpack them?

    The discount only applies to the one you already own, so if you get the CG you only get the discount on the CG. Not sure if they need to be unpacked or not.

    The ships come in boxes so they can be stored until you want them. I *think* they need to be unpacked for the discount to register, based on notes the devs made about carrier pets as well as how other ships currently work.

    For any of the 3 Breen ships, if you want the discount one of your chars must already have that specific ship. You don't get a Chel Gret discount if you have the Plesh Brek.

    Wow, my buddy just said high in his post and got a lifetime ban. Guess they pick and choose who they ban. On my main note, I just got the Grett on this account and still need 1000 photos on the other characters. On my main account I got it on 4 chara in the first year and it still needs 1000 photos for it. I,m collecting 1000 again on another toone on main account, but it seams that will not work too. Just love waisting time.

    Well they don't have to be unpacked and they're still bugged, both the Chel Gret and the Plesh Brek. I had the Chel from the 1st yr, and instead of waiting, hoping they would fix it I earned the 1000 on one of my 3 alts. Once I get the Chel through the rep, the discount still isn't applying to any of my other toons. Unpacking the carrier unlocked the discount once I claimed the project, but the Plesh Brek which I didn't get last yr and just claimed on a main, and the Chel which I claimed on an alt aren't offering up the discount to any of my other toons, and that's after having unpacked. :mad:
