    "Participating in this Event will give all players the opportunity to win a Flyable Freighter and Epic-Quality Admiralty Ship for their entire account! Keep reading for details on these items, how you can participate in the Event, and what additional prizes may be earned. "

    Since the actual part about the event rewards doesn't reflect this, I assume it's just once again a copy & paste error - or do we really get to earn the Kobayashi Maru a second time?​​

    I hope we can win that freighter, it is a big part of Star Trek lore. Hoping we hear more in the week to come!

    Erm, as mentioned above, you may wish to revise the part I've highlighted below.

    No, that's from the last time they ran the event. This is another lazy copy/paste error.
    Not quite the last time, but the 2nd or perhaps 3rd time ago, from June 2020. The last time was the "Temporal Hack" kit module and the two before that was the "Kobayashi Maru Transponder" and the "Kobayashi Maru & Tong'duj Freighters" - I just can't remember which way around they came.
    Still, you are spot on about it being a copy-paste error and that we're, unfortunately, not getting another chance at the ships!

    Now, if anyone's up for a little mischief, let's all make low-level characters and use our Kobayashi Maru's to defend the Kobayashi Maru in the Kobayashi Maru event...

    Made a topic for this one already in general discussions.

    As i mentioned there:


    Reward looks interesting, but i wish there was an option to go past 7 rounds to see if people actually learned how to use those fancy new ground toys we got last year.

    One thing which eludes me is if this Sompek Energy rebounder is a kit or kit module. It feels like a kit module, but it is described as a kit.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Glad to see the erroneous references to the Freighter ships have been removed, but also consider these changes for the following sentence:
    "Keep reading for details on these this items, how you can participate..."

    Yeah, I really miss the the version where you could keep going round after round until everyone fails, there's no reason why they can't find a way to provide both.
    I stream on Twitch, look for Avoozl_

    The subject of both of the clauses are the same. That sentence doesn’t need a comma.

    The only reason this is a no win scenario is because either deliberately hot bar heals are been prevented from activating or due to server quality processing , Crpytics servers can not respond to the hot bar requests because of the TRIBBLE glowing all over the screen, over Gig fibre pressing my miracle worker repair seven times didn't trigger when under a borg assault stage 6. There's fun then there is just frustration, frustration is log out and go do something else.
    Laddy, don't you think you should... rephrase that??
