There have been questions as to which character on the account will get the remap and the answer to that is; the "main" character as determined by the highest number of skill points.

I was under the impression that the remap would go into the redemption queue, like the rest of the gifts, implying that you could choose which toon gets the remap.

I'd prefer this as well but since remaps are not items this could be problematic from a coding standpoint.

Thanks for the attribute remap. I think it is by far the most valuable of the gifts listed though it would be of greater value to me on one of my alts.

The information above should have been listed together with all the details about the new bonus remap system. Maybe in the blog or in the first post in this thread. I had to dig quite far to find out if the bonus remap had to be used by a certain date and which character on the account it would be assigned to.

Yeah, it's not a huge deal, just one of those "Wouldn't it be nice things" For instance, I have an alt that's going to be done training in a month, then I'll be starting a new toon on that account that would get more use out of a bonus remap.

In other words, if it would be easy to put in, it would be lovely. If it would be hard, put the effort into something cooler.

That's not what you said in #85. You said it would be available through the redeeming system. I've chosen the remap as a result of that thinking I can apply it to this toon, the second highest SP in the account.

Seems like I did. I'm very sorry about that. I have corrected the reply now for others who may stumble upon it in the coming days.

Wait. Does that mean I am out of luck if i cant login on the 22nd?

I wont be able to log into eve for 2 weeks or so starting the 20nd. I hope I have only been momentarily stung on some kind of not-understanding-English-properly bug.

Great change CCP.

I believe I have this correct.

This is what I can do after this new system is in place:
I have one regular timed remap and one bonus gift remap. I can choose to either use the timed one or the bonus one as they are listed independently.

Do I understand correctly?

Can it not just be given to the current training character. It then allows us to select which character we want that way. I want it on my 9m sp alt not my 20m sp alt.

I just wanted to post to give a big thanks to CCP. You really went out of your way to make this gift useful to the playerbase. You didn't have to and that's what makes it so significant. I've been very harsh towards CCP as of late but this really makes me think you really are putting effort into the game these days for your players.

So long as we can control when it gets added, this would also be a nice way to do it (so I can turn on a character's training for a day or whatever to get it applied, then swap back).

Thank you very much, CCP. This is greatly appreciated with the advent of new T2 modules and their training requirements. You have no idea how helpful this is for my triage pilot, who was almost panicking over being unable to get T2 triage under her Perc/Will remap.

Happy Holidays, no matter what holiday you choose to celebrate. Big smile

Try to petition it, maybe it can be changed manually…

I just hope for CCP that not too many people ask for this P

Hey guys am I missing something here? I was away for some time but I logged on and both my accounts had a gift, but when I try to redeem them the only option I get was for the CA-2 implant (on both accounts)

Am I supposed to get another gift to choose the remap, aurum and other things?? If so mine isn't showing Sad How to fix??? What?

Am I missing something?

I want to choose the remap gift but I can't find/select it on the account managment website. Do I need to checkbox it somewhere else to select the remap gift? Can someone help me out here?

Thanx for any help!

Thanks a lot! I'd be interested to find out what % of people pick remap :)
