    It gave me 2 gamma quadrant doff packs that weren't bound at all. :o It's cool though 'cause I can use them.

    Edit: Spire provisions out of 1 pack. Seriously? At least I can sell it for EC to a vendor. Got a stack of 10 Ketracel White from the other pack. Yeah, like I really needed that with 15 characters stationed at DS9 to get those types of commodities.

    Ooh! Got a purple quality refugee from 1 of the packs. Sweeeet! B)
    What race? I got a Vorta Refugee once. :D

    See: reference to "Admiral Leeta".

    Leeta is Bajoran. If you look closely at the artwork, you can see the characteristic ridges on the nose.
    Forget the possibility of PvP, for so much has become pay-to-win, never to be balanced. Forget the promise of exploration and research, for in the grim dark future of Star Trek Online there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting publishers.

    A HUGE thank you for the Inventory Spaces! (YAY!) Claimed on all 7 characters. That was extremely generous and thoughtful, and is VERY much appreciated!

    And thank you for the DOFF packs (2 awarded, including 2 Rare DOFFs of professions I was skimpy on, a pack of 10 Ketracel and 10 Embassy Provisions).

    Re: Haggis (please don't kill me, Trendy, I DID post on topic, too) :)

    Yeah definitely. Not really a summer dish. Just it with some neeps and tatties and possibly a whisky sauce if you're feeling really fancy haha.

    The local chapter of the St. Andrew Society invited me to perform the "Toast to the Haggis" for their Hogmanay (New Year's celebration) one year. With huge knife in one hand and a bottle of single malt Scotch in the other, I recited the full page of Robert Burns' Toast (in dialect). During the toast, at the appropriate points, you slice open the haggis, and pour the single malt Scotch over it.

    So the correct "seasoning" is not just a mere whisky sauce, but single malt Scotch. There are actual spices cooked into the haggis first, too, of course. And it's quite delicious.

    And Scotty would approve! :)

    And for the squeamish, you CAN buy commercial haggis whose outer wrapping is plastic wrap instead of sheep's paunch. Then again, if you're squeamish about haggis, you probably don't want to think too hard about what's in your hot dog, either...

    Back on Topic: Can't wait to find what the other giveaways are. I REALLY hope the Eisilum Horta (as an Account Wide Unlock) is one. They did the Polytrinic one a couple of years ago and I LOVE mine.

    Don't try a Horta haggis, though, they are VERY crunchy. Even with Scotch.

    Keep it on topic. No haggis. Bad haggis.

    The cruelty. Anyway, thanks for the stuff and looking forward to day 3​​

    Nothing wrong with Haggis neeps and tattys in face I had grilled haggis as a starter on my wedding day and still love it to this day.

    Haggis is awesome. Never trust a person who doesn't like Haggis. :tongue:

    Can't say i have ever eaten it, but i will try any sort of food.
    Seen a recipe once though. Sheep stomach with sheep liver, sheep tongue and sheep heart boiled/steamed with herbs onions and oats. Sounds like something which has potential providing the correct seasoning is used.

    Now gimme.


    Yeah, so many people are put off simply because of what's in it without ever trying it. I don't like people who don't try foods before deciding if they like them or not haha.
    May not always look 'the best', but it does taste fantastic.

    Having several chefs in the family I'm frequently a Guinea pig for various recipes.
    Would not mind tasting haggis, but given the choice and since it doesn't sound like a light dish it's probably best served during the dark months of the year.​​

    It was great that the DoFF giveaway was actually two packs! I thought it would just be one. I'm really hoping that we'll get a Ship Upgrade Token somewhere in here. I really need them for the T5 ships I've had sitting around. (Yes, I've already said this before in this thread. I'm just hoping if I bring it up again, it might actually come true lol)

    Here's hoping :smile:

    Also hoping that the freebies continue during the weekend, and all the way until the S11 release on 27th.

    Who else thinks the next give away will be a batch of haggis?

    Never mind, couldn't help myself with this pun.​​

    Right here, straight from canon:
    Leeta (mirror)

    Note the part that says "She is also slated to appear in Season 11 of the computer game Star Trek Online, voiced by Chase Masterson."

    If I'm reading all of this material correctly, then the mirror universe in this game is an alternate, alternate mirror because that Leeta died. Unless she had only appeared to have died, a commonly used trope in Action/Sci-fi/Fantasy stories.

    I'm sure we will know soon enough. :)

    100 marks is not what I would call 'large'. You get that by running one, maybe two STFs.

    I'm beginning to think the Future Flyer, despite not technically being part of the giveaway, will still be one of the most valuable things we get this time... (Well, except the inventory slots, I guess. Still a bit ticked off about not being able to use them on future characters, though.)

    Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.p3OEBPD6HU3QI.jpg

    How could Leeta be mistaken for anything with Tellarite in it.

    To all those who think that girl in the picture is mirror leeta you are only drawing conclutions. There is actually nothing in fact saying this.

    Think logically, the actress who played leeta, chase masterson was 36 when the series ds9 ended. STOverse is set 30 some odd years after star trek when we left it. That would make both leeta and mirror leeta approx 66 years old.

    The girl in the picture looks to be in her 20's.
    So please.

    I'm not sure, but on Tribble
    in DS9 opps you can play some video Logs with Mirror Leta in it (she actually says her name), and she does not look like the one on that picture.... i think...

    For years. I remember reading all the details about the *new* Romulan Legacy Pack on the German site an hour before it went online on this site.
