Was super excited to get the free ships today and thank you for the 1 ship I did not already have. Sadly I already purchased the Ar'kif Retrofit and the Marauder Patrol Cruiser from the Z-store. Would have been nice if there was some sort of mechanism to detect if players already have the ships that are being given away and instead those players given a voucher for a T5 ship. But thanks anyway for the 1 ship. I feel bad for the folks out there that got nothing because they already have all three of the T5 ships being given away. Sorry to those of you left out. Better luck next time.

    These freebies are to a lesser extent, just another lottery. If someone has already maxed out their inventory slots, or purchased every c-store ship there is (some people likely have done that) then they're going to miss out. The idea of these giveaways is that of Cryptic giving back to the community, not individual people.

    Like you, I already had previously purchased the Ar'kif Retrofit for my Romulans while the Marauder was a freebie from one of the previous giveaways. I do like the fact that I have the Excelsior though now! :smiley:

    Free ships?
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...

    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    I see... It was cleverly disguised this time around... Thanks for the info.

    What about those that can't even log on due to overloaded servers? Feel bad for us :(

    I would imagine they'll extend the event; they usually do when there's server troubles. That, or they'll stabilize the servers with enough time to spare for you and everyone else.

    Individual people make up the community, so leaving part of the community out in the cold is still kinda messed up no matter how you want to word it.

    maybe, you could also try to be happy for the players who hadn't these ships. I was happy for the others when they gave the dhelan, even if I had purchased this ship.
