Can Featured Rerun be extended 3 more days

On tech and issues a lot of people can not get on despite trying all the suggested fixs. Devs claim to be working on it,but it has been three days. Can featured rerun and the 15 lobi crystals a day be extended more days?
this would be beneficial because:D
1 it would help players who couldnt get on during your launch days
2 it would make players who could get on happy
3 it doesnt cost you a darn thing

    I agree with President Kirkson,

    Extend it for 3 or 4 more days :/

    Or how about a Special Featured Episode Rerun during Christmas 20 Lobi each day :P

    Actually, the reasons why I don't think this will be extended is:

    a) there's no "you must repeat this N times to get the reward" for the event.

    and

    b) extending it would probably mean delaying the start of the Winter event.

    After the way people whined and complained when the devs extended the summer event twice? Not likely.
    never had problems with summer event or whined about it
    and didnt the devs extend it because season 7 and NWN were causing server hiccups ?

    This would also be a good incentive for the players sitting here waiting to get back into the game. Make us feel that we, who are stuck out of the game will be Fairly compensated for our lag time, like the developers getting overtime for their hard work during this time.

    Great idea

    Seriously? Entitled much?:rolleyes:
    It's already set for a month as is. I don't care what tech problems you are having, that is time to get plenty of lobi.
    It's not my fault if you feel trolled by my Disco ball... Sorry'boutit.

    Good luck with this, Cryptic is rather inconsistent about these requests.

    Yes please extend these events. we are sitting out due to a problem on the devs end. giving us one extra day for each day this persists is only fair.

    At least this will cut down on the number of people in the Voth zones, seems like everyone came back in droves for some Lobi and now are just waiting around...

    I tried to do Mine Enemy to day and couldn't complete it because of a bug, it would't give me the access code to the locked door, and the cut scenes did not work.

    Yes I agree I missed 3 days of it because the server was down to put in s8 and down for patching at the only times I can play during the workweek.

    If you are able to get in game then you have no right to down those of us who have been locked out by cryptics tech problems... not ours!

    Further I think as a paying customer, or even as a f2p member we deserve at least something in recompense for their failure having cost us the loss of rewards as well as the beginning of the new season... you however obviously would never think to ask for recompense if you felt you didn't get what you fairly had a right to, through no fault of your own.

    Shorting those of us unable to get in puts us at disadvantage to you and others in game even if we get the extention to make up... lots of us lost out on the oppurtunity to finish cc event as well due to a similar error. so before you throw it in our faces some more get the facts!

    As a gold subscriber I'm down nearly 10 days out of 2 months... and not more than an oops we're sorry... so keep your snide remarks to yourself because you have no dog in this race!

    What technical issue are you getting that the majority of us are not? I have been able to get on every day this month.

    So you can't play five days out of 60? Sounds more like your issue than the Dev's issue. Why would the Dev's apologize for something that they cannot control or because you spend 15 bucks that you are entitled, granted you get a third of that back in free zen.

    However if you need those three extra days to get the extra lobi, use your stipend and buy some keys.

    I've been lucky enough not to experience any major bugs trying to play S8 so far, but I can definitely sympathize with the people who've been missing out on free lobi (which is probably the most valuable single currency in the game) due to bugs that were not their fault. I support the extension of the giveaway. Now that the actual code to give the lobi away is active in-game, keeping it running shouldn't necessarily cost too much time from the Winter event anyway.

    Also, I have a vested interest in having the giveaway run longer, since I missed the first few days of it due to being away on assignment :D

    If you've read the patch notes, you've seen Branflakes say...

    Some players are experiencing a crash during the loading screen. As this is a separate issue from the above, we will continue to work on a resolution for that and will note it in patch notes once one is available.
    This started with the Season 8 launch. There was a very similar crash bug after the patch on 10/3/13 - that time it took a week to fix. No one ever gave an estimate of the number of players affected, but just from the volume of posters in the tech support forum thread, I'd estimate it is a significant fraction, probably between 3% to 5% of the playerbase. Affected players can't get into the game at all - it crashes at the "CRYPTIC" loading screen.
    I've been affected by both of these issues. Luckily I have STO loaded on three different machines, of which two are not affected, so I've been able to at least log in occasionally, get the free lobi and doff a little. Others aren't so lucky.
