NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!

No free remaps! Its a yearly consequential of planning in advance and just going with it from there. You shouldn't have the option to randomly change your skill whenever you want.

/end troll

No one wants CCP to allow the charging of a remap with PLEX. But its ok if its given away for free AND its not for changing an existing mechanic (learning skills). And no one is complaining?

Bunch of f*cking hypocrites.

I have a remap coming up in 2 days, plus the one I just bought. I will be using my current remap to blitz into a Damnation with all the perks, then I'm gonna remap to something useful (because Charisma isn't).

Remaps are by and far the most valuable of the gifts, since you can't buy better attributes no matter how much isk you have (for now). But if you're in the 100m SP club, chances are attributes matter little to you, so I suppose investing in quafe zero, or the CA implants are better choices. Those items are guaranteed to appreciate in value over time. AUR is also a good choice, but as more people accumulate more of it from handouts, the prices of items will go down, since CCP is sure to forget all about updating the NEX store after enough time-abandoning it like many other features which is good enough since no one really cares about it anyway.

If you don't like the free remap you are free to choose something else. People rage about the dumbest things...

I'm sure they will 'accumulate'. At least they used to. One Corp member came back after 2 years and had 4 Re-Maps available from various give-aways including that one last winter.

Suppose you have a normal remap due to become available in January, and you choose the remap gift. If you don't use the remap gift by the due date of the upcoming remap, will the normal one still be added on?

If you have no remaps available, but original remap coming shortly it will happen like last time to me.
My remap was due about a moth and we got one remap as present. That free remap nullified the original remap counter and stated that remap is available now.

I petitioned because i truly believed that i had a free remap plus the original, but after remap counter appeared for one year.
so this is my story, basically you will get a free remap if you already have one available, it will say that you have 2 remaps.
bu if you have no remaps it will say that "remap is available now" and will nullify your original counter,

What sucks most that if you have a remap lets say due a week or a month from holiday gift day you aint gona get one free remap it just nullify your counter...

I just picked that one. You're gonna undo it, aren't you? Roll it back, say oops, and make me spend a full year specced for charisma and willpower. I'll be cross if you do.

Thanks for being clear, admitting that you don't know and getting back to get the facts.

I for one sure like this kind of corporate communication;)

My neural remap is available again at 2011.12.22, and the present is said to be given in 22. of december. So i wonder, if i choose free remap - would i get 2 of them at 2011.12.22, or would it just reset the timer on the current one, leaving me with one remap available at 2011.12.22?

I disagree!

My suggestion is to activate your remap - any of it you'll see ingame first. Yearly given remap will not stack if you have any of it already available. So if noone can say wich remap you granted (XMas gift or yearly gift), better use it.
Also if youll get yearly remap first and youll be pretty shure in it, then youll be fine and end up with 2 remaps (as Xmas gift usually stacks with any).
Sorry this is really wrong, as if you use any remap, next yearly given remap youll get 1 YEAR later, so if you will get 2 remaps in one day, there will be only luck that gives you 2 remaps - if youll get yearly remap first, Xmas remap next. In other case youll get Xmas remap, and yearly remap will not be granted EVEN if youll use xmas remap, because you use it thus you reset yearly timer.
