The patcher said we'd get 50k sp during the extended DT today - we didn't?

Was it on a specific character only? Might be because i am using a lesser sp character than another on the account.

I think only the char with an active skill-queue on 15th got it.

As per the news about it, 50K given to all characters eligible to train when the extended DT occurred.

All my characters that were training then received the points.

Correct, only characters with an active skill queue on that date got the SP, that being said, if they had an active skill queue they didn't miss out, i would have personally thought it would have been better to just reward people who didn't have an active queue when the server came back up

And this point its not really compensation its just free SP for no real loss

I got it.

However, I wish they wouldn't use the launcher as a sole source of announcements. I rarely read the launcher items (launcher space is small, EVE comes up too quickly to bother giving the launcher any real attention, RSS feeds exist for a reason, browsers are better at displaying information, etc.)

edit: Never mind, I missed the announcement in the news section. Oops

There are RSS Feeds: https://community.eveonline.com/news/rss-feeds/

We're having folks report in help chat that on accounts with both active training and non active training characters, the points are going to the non active characters. We're directing them to file support tickets. A quick check of the forums doesn't show up any other folks mentioning this.

Lookie, I found where to edit my Signature!

My que ran out on the 15th, unable to set it because of the extended downtime. It will be interesting to see if i received skill points.

how did your skill queue run out?

Mines about 300 days long

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

*Shrug* Haven't even checked. Not enough SP to care about.

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

Should have.

It wasn't if you had an active queue, but if you were eligible to train. So if your queue ran out but you were eligible to have one, you should have received the points.

At some point, "endurance" > "length". I'm pretty sure 300 is over 9,000 beyond that particular point.

Looks like the SP has been given to the character with the most SP, at least in my case. I'd have preferred it to have gone to the character that was training at the time or had trained a skill last but heyho, free SP is free SP.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Ohh, but that's different to what I read from the announcement...

... I'm currently training a skill off to my attribute mapping, so I welcome a 10% boost in points for that level.

Only have 1 toon on each account -- always actively training -- didn't see any "Unallocated" skillpoints in my queues AT ALL.

CCP -- you missed a few people.

Yeah, I read the announcement and expected to find the SP on the character that was training on that day, it would have come in handy; alas, it was not meant to be Sad so I used it to complete a few new skills on this one.

It's not in your queue, it's in the Skills section of the character sheet.

Skills section > skills tab > should be displayed in green. You have to pause training and remove the skill you want to add the 50k sp to from your queue, then right-click the skill and add the sp.

Honestly, if it hadn't been for this thread, I'd never have known about the sp.
