    Should help my newest char get a bit of a reserve.
    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.

    How about raising the refine cap for a weekend instead of having us collect yet even more unrefined unusable dil.

    First world problem: I have so many dilithium claims now, even if the Dilithium Weekend ran for a full 30 days, that all 11 of my alts could not possibly turn them all in.

    I really wish I could give some of them away.

    As a newbie, I would vote for a double refining dilithium bonus weekend, really 8K/day is nothing...

    Looks like someone is trying to push the Dil-Zen exchange rate to up over 400. :/

    That mostly helps the farmers / hardcore grinders. Giving extra dil instead helps the casuals, so extra dil is the better choice.

    ...and the recent short duration between these weekends works to increase the level of inflation in the dil exchange; I look for exchange rates to approach 350 again soon. :/

    And just when dil exchange rate began to dip a little... Then again, unless something horrible happens, the rate would go down eventually, and my dil would still be there... Or directly spent as dilithium...

    Oh well, will have to wait longer to exchange Dilithium into Zen, then..

    It does have the added bonus of not needing to be online as much, because what is the point being online to earn it if you cannot exchange it..

    This is good, I don't get much dil with what time I play. So I can get some built up for my characters. This is much needed.

    Decision decisions. Grind particles or dilithium.

    I felt an extra question mark was justified to display my doubly confused state at reading the announcement. This game is going a bizarre way right now... :|

    Well I could get some dilithium for a few chars so I could get some reputation ground and space slots opened in the coming weeks. Maybe get a head start on the mastery slot cost too.

    Well I'm in no hurry.

    Considering I have over 100k in dil reserve I hope that was sarcasm.

    Since I'm not grinding particles and just getting what I am by doing the daily for the ship, and if I'm left with HAVING to grind particles or Dilithium, I choose option "i".

    As in ignore and just keep playing the game as I normally do.

    Grinding isn't fun, I play games to have fun. I did the particle grind last year and it completely burned me out. If I'd have had the option to run the Find Q mish at the Academy to get the Anniversary ship this year, I would have done that over the particle game. It's just too blasted buggy and having to travel all over the place takes too long. Add in the long load times on certain maps and...

    Anyway, I actually do appreciate the bonus Dil, but I will not grind for it. I gave up trying to hit the 8k daily cap years ago. Not to say I haven't hit it once in a while, I just don't make that a deciding factor on how much I play.

    It depends... Sure, you'd get some people who might have just brought their dil to the exchange spend real money instead, but then people who buy zen to get their dil need to buy less with high rates, and then again, some of them would spend more to take advantage of good (for them) rates...

    Without knowing exactly how grindy are the grinders and how spendy are the spenders it's difficult to tell. But, considering Cryptic seems to be generous with the dilithium events lately they probably want a rate of 350 or so.

    Oh great. More distractions from the fact that INVESTIGATE OFFICER REPORTS IS MISSING/GONE, and just desperately hoping the Dil Exchange goes up to entice people to bring out their wallets.

    Again? Don't think me ungrateful but the dilithium exchange is highly inflated as it is.
