    Mondays are the kinds of days where people just snap at Q for bringing his mariachi band in again.

    Look back at season 7 blogs and, you will see the main info for the event is on the two days before the event goes live, or are you giving a whole blog on the gingerbread pve event? Bran I love everything to do with this event... love it.

    Called what? There was no information in that blog besides the announcement that the next winter event is going to start soon, which we knew already.

    Can't wait. I don't know if it's the overall atmosphere or what, but I always enjoyed STO's Winter events.

    Will there be a new special Starbase decoration project, like last year?

    Now for the ultimate question: is this holiday against the Doctrine?

    I can just imagine the Voth throwing a hissy fit about all of this and even the Klingons telling them to just enjoy themselves.

    At the risk of sounding like a fanboy, I've got to hand it to the STO devs/community managers/tea ladies/etc, we've been really spoilt the last few months.

    Thanks for all the awesome content so far, can't wait to see what you've got up ya sleeves for 2014. :D

    It's not just me, right? Q offering 'Hugs and Kisses' scares the TRIBBLE outta me....
    Of all the ideas that became the United States, there's a line in the Declaration of Independance that's at the heart of all the others. "But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and provide new Guards for their future security."

    Good, I was wanting this to return. I had a blast with it. And got one sweet warship out of the deal. I wonder what new goodies this year will bring.

    It would be nice if you kept the old ones as well. So if any missed out, they can still get it. By having the option of last year or this years.

    I'm really looking forward to the Winter Wonderland! New Gingerbread Colony, eh? Neat!

    Starting Dec 5th? Makes sense... And many people figured that was the Go Date for the WW, since the Featured Episode Lobi Event ends then.

    I'm just happy I'll be done with my Main character's Dyson Rep before WW starts (I expect to be done Tues 12/02), so I can spend more time playing in the snow!

    Woot, woot! :D

    I had a feeling of Deja-Q when reading S8 B24, so I went back to S7 B24 and they're nearly identical!

    Am I the only one who wished the STO dev team skipped the Winter Event to work on more Featured Episodes as well as possibly Season 9 stuff?

    Copy-paste Dev blog. Identical to the blog from last year, except for the added reference to the "Gingerbread Colony". Why even bother making this post, if you can't be arsed to add something useful? It's not a state-secret that the Winter Event is coming, so I fail to see how a blog post announcing "It's coming" is useful to anyone.

    Would much rather see actual information on what kind of rewards we can expect this time around. And while your at it, make a blog post that includes BOTH rewards AND stats in the same post. Quit giving us bits and pieces in each blog.
