I don't think that's true.

They use the same weird rear end gibberish language in this blog as all the previous ones.

If, on the day, it's in an actual promo pack, odds are its going to stay a promo pack forever like it always has.

Unless you know something I don't, I think it's that same cryptic cryptic-ese gibberish they always post.

They should make the convention promo codes like the ones in SWTOR, one code has so many uses, so you can share it with friends.

I want the EMH, though apparently hes just the the old EMH from the referral system with Robert Picardo's head.

^^^ Supposedly this one is fully customizable, the old photonic science referral reward wasn't customizable at all. Haven't had a chance to confirm this yet tho.

You can change his uniform and his facial expressions, but he is locked to his Picardo head.

The KDF get an Orion female EMH. Romulans get what ever faction they're aligned with.

Krenim Timeship is a DOFF pack reward.

We're probably going to fly it in this weeks episode. Though knowing how cryptic normally gears ships it won't be a good representation.

And it's still telling that a lot of years-old but minor bugs that were blatantly obvious in play (like the Ar'kif's singularity beam randomly cutting off for no reason) were only fixed once someone actively poked Bort or Geko on reddit about them.

Fixed? Maybe it happens a little less, but trust me, it's not fixed.

Cardassia is always liberated. Unless you're in the Mirror Universe, but those Cardassians got subjugated by Mirror Bajorans. I'm not sure how to feel about that. But I'm pretty sure Bajorans, mirror or no, need to be subjugated and taught their proper place. Just as Dukat would have wanted.

As long as Bajorans exist, Cardassians will never be free!

The Big Lie told by the Bajorans and their Federation allies is that Enabran Tain was responsible for the failure and collapse of the Cardassian empire, when, in reality, he did everything he could to fight the dominion, and was undermined by Bajoran and Federation scheming. Their belief is that by telling a lie so huge and so often, that people will begin to believe it, simply because they would not have the audacity to tell such a lie themselves.

Vulcan politics are characterized by this behavior--of lying big and then doggedly sticking to the lie no matter the circumstance.

That is why we must furnish clear platform heels with living goldfish inside to any civilization that comes across our path. It is inevitable that races will collide, and when they do, it is the tone of their calves which will determine the victor.

Obviously, I firmly believe in the supremacy of the Cardassian people thanks to their inborn will to power.

Captain oblivious gets pissed whenever he sees a Dental in zone chat. He makes a big scene if having to minimize zone chat, but never does anyway and constantly chimes in whenever SFD is mentioned. I sent him a pm letting him know I'd accept any apology he would be willing to give to atone for his awful behavior, but he spammed my pms for like five minutes and put me on ignore.
