I love the fact that you are giving away skill points but there seems to be a lack of consistency when you do it. Near the start of the year, you gave only 3 days to obtain all 3 rewards (I missed day 3 as you can probably guess). I’m sure there was some solid feedback on pilots missing out so you changed it during the big give away during the 16th anniversary to a system where you had 18 days to collect 16 rewards. This was very helpful for myself in the US (and others I assume) especially having to work late during the start date. It meant I didn’t have to miss out again just because I had other priorities. But come around to this Skillpoint weekend and you are back to the 3 days to collect 3. The side effect for me and others will be that I’m going to miss out on 125k for the last day. For me, that’s 6 accounts for a grand total of 750k SP missed out. Add this to the first time I missed out and I’m out 1.5m SP.
Salty? Yes. But I’m mostly salty because I had hoped (assumed?) it was going to be similar to the 16th anniversary giveaway where I perhaps had 4 or 5 days to collect the 3 rewards.
So, CPP, where is the consistency?
Alternatively, where can I get my 1.5m SP that I missed out on because I have a job!
Friday’s are great and all, for sure. However, my weekend starts Saturday morning when I wake from my slumber.
If they are going to continue to give things away, wouldn’t it make more sense to just be consistent and recognize that there is a time difference (gasp! what?) and provide 4 days to collect the 3 rewards. A simple win win for everyone!
claiming reward doesnt require you spend more than 2 minutes of your time: launch all 6 clients at once - claim reward on character select screens, close clients.
And weekend is just that - weekend. From DT on friday to DT on monday, EvE time.
Can’t click anything on my computer when I’m at work. That’s not a complex concept I hope. Unless you don’t have a job, or a life, then I understand it’s hard to grasp. The fact remains, I miss out on Friday. It’s already Saturday when I’m in a position to do so.

Server is in Europe, not the US. They are hours ahead of you and DT is the middle of the day for them. US has DT at 3-6 AM at the same time across the time zones in 48 states, unless you work over night thats plenty of time between each DT to DT and log in for a few minutes. This is not kill X number, its at the character screen…30 second each accout and drop on a character.
