Why did I receive this gift?
Fr, 04/12/2013 - 19:14
I just logged on a few minutes ago and received a 7-day Elevator Pass Gift, completely out of the blue. I thought maybe this was an Anniversary Gift or something, so I logged off and then back on, this time with my brother's account, but didn't receive anything. He even confirmed he hadn't gotten any gift.
So am I just lucky or something? I really didn't do anything. Heck, neither of us have really been playing all that much and he's been the more active one since we came back a week ago.

Why didn't I receive a gift?
Why didn't I receive a gift? Which players are targetted by this gifting operation? What's the reason for giving away gifts out of nowhere?
Answers plex.

Currently there are no answers.
The gift is only described as a "Gift from the Skylark to you."
-We cannot currently draw any conclusions from this until more information is given.
It could perhaps be a reward to veteran players or those who have bought things in the past.

Same remark as Dameonn. It's clearly not a veteran reward; maybe it's a reward for vanguards who achieved more than 45k prestige, can we check that somehow by having people confirming wether or not they fit that category when they obtained the gift?

Nope, not prestige related.
Nope, not prestige related. Maybe it's playtime related?

It's not a prestige or mission thing.
Canozo would have gotten it if that were the prerequisite. We should assume that this is a random thing until we can find a correlation between these gifts and the ones that recieve them.

isn't linked to prestige, some player's alt got the pass too
maybe something with accounts created before the release on steam

Confirm it's not prestige
Confirm it's not prestige related. My guildmate just got one and he's at 9990 prestige. He's F2P and hasn't accessed to test server or anything.
This just seems to be random.

No idea.
I'm still a Squire...left the game before prestige came around. No prior purchases, not even a single piece of 5* gear, grand total of 2 days' time played total.
Not sure if it's pre-Steam related, either, because my brother signed up for the game a few weeks before I did.

Well, prestige or not, I'm glad I got it. Thank you, Three Rings. :D

Maybe it's a teaser gift
To make people feel what it's like to be on a pass. So they actually buy one later.

help Eury...
this is strange, isn't linked to something, was totally random. isn't linked to game time or prestige, because some alts got the pass, or a reward to P2P players, because some F2P got the pass too. only thing i know for sure is: the economy will get messed up for a time. like i said before, would be nice if a GM clarify this.

I guess we got it because OOO liked our names...? I really can't see a common factor between the "winners".

I got a 14 day pass (over 15k prestige and way too many hours in SK). I have also paid at least 20 bucks into this game awhile back.
One of my friends, who has never paid anything into this game also got a 14day, and he had been inactive for 1 month (until I asked him to check his mail to check). Curious indeed.
Maybe it's just a way for OOO to pacify us? or just to get more players playing (hopefully) the clockworks. In reality, it just means more profit from vana/JK/twins runs :/

That's odd I did get 14 days
That's odd I did get 14 days for free, haven't been playing lately, so maybe its to get customers to return :P
I've opened tickets, never used a pass, spent a lot before, low prestige because I haven't completed the missions yet, that's all I can think of

hmm...
I actually got one and just checked my two alts and they also got them as well... one's t2 and the others t1 both low prestige. Maybe random is just random?

#36
my 2 cents
I got a 14 day ele pass but I didn't get any on my alts (who are new because I came back in November)
I dunno... Maybe it's for older knights?
How long have you played on each of your character who got a present?
I'm at 1477 hours on my main who got one
and 150 hours on my alt who didn't get one...

@Shamanala
no, isn't linked to played game time, because some alts of some player got the pass
maybe OOO want to say something to us, like: the skylark is almost fixed and we are close to open and get the ship full operational.

WHY!!!
Okay, it's not money history, game time, prestige, or age.
I know this because my younger brother who has not been playing for as long as me, about 3 months difference, also bought the same CE pack as me and who is a lower rank than me, got one....
WHYY!!!!!!!

D: No the real true its... OOO its gathering and buying the souls of few people with Ele passes so they can say OOO its a good company.. so when the real fight comes... they will defend OOO agaisnt those people who are agaisnt OOO and the.. the end of the times will begin...
Nah just messing around.
Enjoy the ele passes the lucky ones :) a guildie got one and he dont have lot of prestige so this pure luck nothing related to prestige or time.
but can we expect a forum rage?? i doubt it

If Skylark IS coming then what the hell is going to happen to sk? will we travel to different near by planets? or will we dive the ship into deeper in clockworks and rip open the core?....... either way "/me steal popcorn" im waiting to see they got for us and it better be something good -.-
