I currently don't have any available remaps, but I will get one in about two months.
If I select the remap as my x-mas gift, will I end up with 2 remaps in two months or will I still just have one?
One remap is useless to me... need two so I can remap back after a short while =8

Also wanting to know the answer to this question.

I currently have 1 remap available. If I choose the remap holiday gift, will I then have 2 remaps available?

This is the intended mechanic and it should work that way. If you can be patient until tomorrow I should have a definite answer for you all Smile

I would like to know the answer to this too.

I know at one stage i had 2 remaps available but we were all given a remap and at that time i already had one waiting.
It would be helpful to know if we select the gift remap whether we'll still get our 12 month remap as well when that is due.

I already have 3 free remaps and would like 4, just want to make sure I don't end up with the same 3 or worse, 2 or less.

It sucks that those who have an extra remap saved benefit a lot more from this than those who don't have any saved. If you already have a remap saved you'll get a second one saved. So you can remap for 6 months or whatever and then switch back. If a character has no remaps but one would be available in a month he gets absolutely no benefit from this.

This extra remap should always add a new remap and the old one's timer should continue counting down. Then it would be fair for every character.

Then counter would count if you have remap and every year you would get remap even if you have one (or two/three/four) = chars with ****-loads of remaps.

Or they could let you keep gifted remaps separate from the regenerating ones

How many remaps have we been given so far in total?
In the Attributes tab under "Neural Remap Available" it says "Now", which a corpmate told me meant that I have one left. But ive been in eve since remap got introduced, and only used one just in the beginning.

'Now' means one. New players get two.

same question with the OP,
I currently have 0 remap available and will have one available Jan 25th, 2012 (a month from now)
I don't want to blow the awesome chance on a remap when I'd get 1 in a month... but if I redeemed the remap gift then receive another one on jan 25th next year, I'd totally pick the remap :)

Is this gift 1 remap per account or 1 per character?

I really hope it doesn't just reset the remap cooldown or add to stored remaps. My next remap is up in January 2012, so if it just lets me get a remap one more early its quite underwhelming compared to what most people could get out of it .
Same thing happened last year with the learning skills removal remap. Thought it was in addition to a remap I had due in a few months so I went with an Int/Memory remap to finish off a few skills, then got stuck with that for a year.

Oh well, worst case I get to go back to Perc/Will a month early.
