Why does each character have his own isolated Anniversary Voucher reputation project?

Why aren't the contributions account-wide like the ship prize is? Is it a bug? It seems silly for all of my characters to be filling up the meter when one day my Klingon will be like "Got to 1000!!" and the others will just be sitting there impotent at 960. Is it better to hoard vouchers with the other characters, or will they be worthless after the event is over anyway?

    Only one character needs to run the event in order to unlock the ship for every character on your account. If you are running it on multiple alts, then you may simply just be wasting your time.

    Unless this works how the Summer and Winter events worked and you can turn in 40 vouchers per day for 40 Rep marks of your choice, once you have the ship unlocked. Which I'm guessing it will. Once the event ends, any extra vouchers are supposed to go *POOF*.

    Yea if you are running it on multiple character's, and putting the vouchers in the ship project on each, all you have done is waist the vouchers i am sorry to say.

    Run the ship project on one character, save the vouchers on all the others. After you get the ship a new project will show up. 40 vouchers for 40 marks, after the event ends anything left over disappears.

    I'm guessing there will be a buyback store in 11 months or so.

    Contributions are not account wide because that means you can get the ship in one day with 3 toons playing Time and Tide which gives each toon 400 vouchers the 1st time they play it. The purpose of the events is to give an incentive to player to log day after day to ultimately get the "prize". There more often players log into the game the better STO's metrics will be which is one of the things executives at Cryptic and PWE will be looking at. Also, the more often a player logs in means an additional day the player may think about actually spending real money on the game.

    Before they went account wide, every toon had to do it to get the ship. I would assume Cryptic just hasn't bothered / don't care to code in something that stops other toons from starting the project when one is doing it already.

    except i have the ship on one character yet on other characters who claimed the ship via store the only the rep grind for the ship is available.

    You get the freedom to choose which toon you do the grind on. If you do it with more than one you waste your time.
