  What, your captains haven't reached level 70 yet? Where have you been?
  
  Are you still flying an old T6 ship instead of T7?

  That would be hilarious if that means Lv70 is sooner than later. Like a 6 months instead of like 2020.. lol

  The Rising of the Delta is the best expansion ever, and people love it to death because it is a good day to die in the endless struggle for supremacy of your own conviction. (A spin off of the Delta Rising is the best expansion ever and all the players love it.)

  Sir Alexander Dane: Could they be the miners?
  Fred Kwan: Sure, they're like three years old.
  Sir Alexander Dane: Miners, not minors.
  Fred Kwan: You lost me.

  Before the train of "level cap increase" takes off:
  
  "Level 61" is the terminology used internally for level 60, because the game starts counting levels behind the scenes at 1 instead of 0. This is the also the reason that high-yield torpedoes may mention spawning a level 51, 61, or 71 torpedo.
  
  For Elite, the queue is actually gated behind "Level 61", which means that players who have leveled up to "player level 60" can play it. Normal and Advanced are only at a player level 50 requirement.
  
  Nothing to see here other than more Gorn puns.

  I always wondered about that.

  Hey, thanks for this queue I have to admit I was disappointed that AoY didn't have a ground queue. Even though it might not be as popular as the space stuff people do like ground queues and they are played quite a bit and a variety of them too.
  
  Ya know you guys should have let people know you had this coming with the AoY patch notes. Something like "we are working on a new ground queue to go with AoY but we just didn't finish it in time. We'll have it for you asap though, enjoy AoY".
  
  I understand why you guys are reluctant to give too much info but with a big update like this it only stands to keep people excited.
  
  Anyways, I look forward to it.
  
  P.S. Bring back Mine Trap, it was a fan favorite there was a chat group made just to play that one queue. I liked it because it had different phases and healing was actually really useful when you escorted the Romulans to the extraction point.

  I'd still like to know whether or not this is a 5-man, 10-man, or 20-man queue. I heard talk that Mine Trap was "coming back", and I'm not sure if "Miner Instabilities" is the new iteration of the ground queue.​​

  Dev-only queue. Devs who can have T8 ships just for the lulz.

  The wording suggests to me that it's 10 or less.
