For the case that you are trying to login, you are unable to do so because of the queue and still want skillpoints: Send an eve-mail to this character (CCP Habakuk2) at the time when you were trying to login. I will try to give you at least a part of the skill points.

tq OR SISI?

The SP is only useable on Sisi. Its always been that way. Test SP allowing you to test new stuff on the test server

I think Biel wanted to know what server to send the mail on.. but I don't think that attitude is going to get Ms. Beil an answer.

Oh and #86 in queue since 19:34

Logically, I think you should mail him on Singularity and only after the event has ended when you can confirm you were not accounted for.

I just read some of the feeedback on the test. Some people were running two clients. They got two while I, and many others, got zero.

CCP; next time you have a test and there are so many clients on that you hit the cap, please request that no one run more than one client so others can participate.

I know you do it the other way: Request people to run multiple clients when too few show up. Please request one client per player when there are many of us waiting.

The queue being announced 54 minutes before the masstest was no problem for me, I fell asleep around 16 eve time(18 my time) and slept to ~18:20 eve time, managed to get 3 clients on, eat dinner and fit them a ship each for the test. You really wouldn't have needed more than 40 minutes to get connected.

Boy you think you are so smart don't you?

The point of 54 minutes being to short of a warning is that there are those people who like have jobs and stuff. Some of those people reschedule those like jobs and stuff to participate. Those same people may want to know ahead of time that there is only a chance of participating if they are not on early. Many people pre stage themselves in the system so that they can log in 20 minutes prior and still have time. I am sure that somewhere in the world someone set an alarm clock and got up really early in the morning to try and participate and found out that if they had set there alarm 20 minutes earlier they would have got in.

Take your myopic view of the situation somewhere else.

Skill points for this mass test have been applied to your characters on Singularity.

I am sorry for all the trouble with the login queue. Sure, it could have been handled a bit better - but the internal results of the mass test were more important than allowing all players to login. We will have several more mass tests in the next weeks - there should be enough opportunities for you to join (and I will give info about the population caps earlier).

The amount of interested players was way higher than expected - 1637 characters managed to login within a time frame of a few hours around the mass test. All of these and 20 additional characters (who sent me a mail) received skill points on Singularity.

Thanks for your interest in this mass test.

Results from the mass test: We found problems with the cyno jump-in effect and are looking in ways to reduce the memory consumption of the client. More mass tests will be scheduled within the next weeks.

Oh, I had no idea we were supposed to send mail.. Am I too late?

Or can I still send a mail and collect the Sp?

The supers will rise again!

You were already on my list and the skill points are waiting for you on Sisi. Blink
