Adding Kirstie Alley to the Memorial

She wasn't mentioned in the patch notes, and after a quick trip to ESD and a check on the memorial, she hasn't yet been added.

So, just out of curiosity, how long does it take to add someone to the memorial?
I guess maybe the first page might take a little longer since they will want a quote and finding a good one might take a little extra time, but she will almost certainly be on the second page, so I only expect "Kirstie Alley (Actress, 1951-2022)".

    Well, she passed away only yesterday. Today's patch was already signed off on before her passing was heard about. Adding names to the memorial is an adhoc thing, obviously. They add them as they hear about them and someone has to just remember to make the addition. I'm quite certain she'll be added soon.

    I apologise for saying this, but this comes across as seriously insensitive and looks like you are trying to guilt-trip Cryptic for not only for not adding someone who has only just died yesterday, but what they should actually say about her!! Please, at least give it a couple of weeks.

    I didn't take it that way. Not everyone understands the process behind these things. And Kirstie Alley's contribution to Star Trek was, sadly, minor, so it makes sense that her entry would be secondary or tertiary in prominence. I wish that she wasn't replaced by Robin Curtis. Don't get me wrong. She was great in her role in ST 3 and 4, but Kirstie defined the role in ST2. But that's how these things go in the biz...

    Baddmoonrizin gave clarification on the situation. So I look forward to just seeing her remembered when they are able to make the update.

    Not surprising her name hasn't been added yet, and there's no rush. It'll appear in the fullness of time no doubt.

    ...and time is a flat circle, right?

    In any case, RIP Kirstie Alley. You done good.

    If you say so, but that's a whole new thread.

    Odds are her name will be added next patch.

    Today's patch notes state Kirstie's name should be on the memorial, but it seems to be missing (from the ESD and Qo'nos memorials, at least).
