I'm sorry to say this, but can a forum mod please end this thread? There are several replies not recommending, my own included.
Rationale: 1) SDE has been doing many things to make this Christmas event one to remember - perhaps the best one of all. Rules have been very few, and the surprise events have been just as great. To KarmaGM and the SDE team - way to go with the gifts and surprises. You have my thanks and appreciation. 2) Item drops have been plentiful - vets, experts, and premium. How do you get them during the event? Play, play, play... This event is an opportunity - if you didn't play enough to receive a minimum 50 coins, that was your choice &/or circumstances... If you want sympathy - sorry, I've missed my chance because of work and family - this is called a GAME for a reason - enjoy it for what it offers. 3) There are still 10 days left to receive coins - that's enough for the minimum 50 coins - work at it, and you can receive a prize (just think - that's about $5 worth of free prem, not including all the item drops just from playing!). 50 coins is not really a challenge - and it is FREE.
As an aside, for those recommending and/or posting in support of this: Yes - you come across as greedy. The event is provided as a gift for all those who play - SDE does not have to provide an event, and in terms of events, this one tops even the EU and Korean Servers (I have an account with EU too - for when I'm bored...).
If you want to post that you aren't greedy, by all means - I've gotten to where I have (L75 max) because I've committed myself to this game when I have the time. I've earned it through my wins and losses, gaining experience and friendships much more valuable than a L120 ship. If you are looking for FREE olives, then commit yourself to signing in each and every day - I may not have time to play during this event (my coin calendars will show I've been less than daily), but I've signed in every day and received 25 FREE Olives for use in trading, or saving up for Prem Sailor... less than a 1min commitment each day... I apologize if some will view this as flaming - however, for a FREE game, there are many opportunities to receive premium items for FREE. Thank you SDE for the opportunity, and future opportunities for the community to enjoy your game.
Need I say more?
