Dang, you all are killing it with these good sales lately. What's up? Should I be afraid or just content with these possibilities? I don't mind stating it, but nice going, Cryptic.

    Wow! I'm so loving it. I just dropped several hundred just because.... I wish the lobi prices were the normal price. Nonetheless awesome!!! If only there was a crazy sale to buy any box ships directly from the Lobi gurus...

    Nice!

    It's too bad the Lobi ground weapons don't scale, are bound to character on pickup, and my Discovery captain is only level 20 :(

    I don't remember this many sales in previous anniversaries. Am I remembering wrong... or does Cryptic seem a little desperate. I hope there not trying to hit numbers for a IP contract renewal. I am getting old perhaps they have always been sale happy during the Ann event.

    But wait more!!! Infinity Duty Officer Promotion! Super sweet!!!

    No... I think its more "We hit 9 years!"

    While I don't remember this many flash sales (Then again Flash sales weren't a thing a few years ago)... I don't see it as desperation. I see it as being generous because they're celebrating. If they were desperate... we'd be seeing 50-75% off C-Store for a week. Not daily rotation of Flash Sales of different things.

    I agree. It makes it seems like things were when STO first started with all the good stuff happening.

    Consequently, I'm getting really stoked thinking about all the possibilities with decade events just around the corner!

    Yep, yesterday was 30% off _1 ship_ not all C-store ships, and lobi sales only bring in cash indirectly since people sitting on lobi use that up first.

    Yeah, I spent 1130 of 1135 Lobi.

    I got the NX class. I'm not 100% sure whether I want to keep it, or sell it and put the EC towards a Crossfields. Decisions, decisions...

    I did my part to cause the release of a T6 Recluse, by giving in and buying the T5 :)
