clearly that’s no longer a possibility 
this is of course my first Christmas event/season but, when did logging into a video game (or not logging in) become the thing that ruins a family vacation? it sounds like the OP gets crabbed at for spending all his time “on that d&mn game” and is afraid that if its mentioned over the holidays WWIII might break out at home. I’ve been there before; back in the days of UO. I get it but, from today’s present it seems like the requirement is only a few seconds.

I don’t see a problem with this:
I think it’s great and I’m thankful that CCP is giving extra stuff to Omega Clone accounts. I’ll gladly spend 5 minutes each time logging in my 2 Omega accounts for 13 out of 18 days just to collect all the freebies.
If you don’t wanna do that, fine. Just don’t try to make some sort of political statement about it and ruin the Holiday cheer for those of us who are looking forward to it.
EDIT:
You don’t even have to actually log into the game, the items can be claimed and redeemed in the character selection page.

Personally i think organizing some big event in the game involving CCP Crew flying ships and blowing stuff would be the best.
You have like a month to login 13 times, and then logout.
Stop being a baby lmfao

17 days is not “a month”.
Did I say a month, or did I say “like a month”
It’s neither, it’s one day short of 3 weeks. So you can miss 4 days.
ur liek a dum
So don’t miss 5 days. Glad we found a solution! Good work team, everyone really pulled together for this one.
It’s a good thing. Free little cosmetic gifts for the claiming! Nobody has to feel like they missed out on any gamechangers.

Why are people complaining about free stuff? Where is this entitlement coming from?

Except that these gifts are not free. You have to do something to get them.
oh no… you have to log in to get your present. and not even all the way in, just to the character select screen.
generally you need to unwrap Christmas presents as well, so by your logic none of those are free either.

Do you have any idea how much stress I get pretending to be nice to my family so I get a better than lump of coal come Christmas morning?
I freakin’ work for those gifts. Nothing is free. Nothing.
I ■■■■■■■ KNOW RIGHT!!! family are the worst, especially around the holidays. and then if they get you something you feel like your under some obligation to get them something back, but you never know what to get them and so its usually gonna be something that you know they are just pretending to like.
I gave up on all that ■■■■ a decade ago, barely even bother with the holidays anymore, i’ll give them a call to wish them happy holidays if I even remember. if they end up sending me something great, if not I can always get myself something with the money i’m not spending on their presents.
Except it’s not cosmetic this time, but super valuable stuff compared to previous years. But only if you hit the 13 in time.
Daily login bonus has never kept anyone in game, good content does. I just hope CCP doesn’t slip down the “free bonus” lane too far before they realize that.
hypothetically valuable. since none are available right now we have no actual metrics as for how valuable, or not, these things will end up being, likely the market will end up being flooded since as myself and others above have pointed out, the actual market for people who are likely to use them (those who have the money to take advantage of more than 3 injectors all at once, and those who actually want to quick train skills enough to spend that kind of isk) is going to be far smaller than the number of people who will be trying to sell them.
this isn’t the first time they have given out valuable gifts either, in years past they have given out aurum (which then got converted to plex during the aurum change) worth well over 500m isk post conversion. they have also given out ships like the gnosis, and leopard as christmas gifts. (the latter of which was selling for almost 200m earlier this year although have dropped in price since) and unlike the augmentors those ships are usable year round rather than limited time items.
