Guess I can use what MC I have left on my accounts to convert some GXP.

[Tumbling Dice]

I'm in it for the cupcake! oh, and convert about 500,000 xp. oh, and add about a half dozen bays. Oh, and get wave 2. There is more, but I just drooled all over my keyboard.

[Appogee]

The cake is ... on my dashboard.

Buying mechbays as soon as my MC purchase goes through. Its taking really long for some reason, though the last time I bought MC you were under IGP, so maybe thats just a natural result.

Got me to buy MC though. Two months of premium time and mechbays ought to hold me over until Community Warfare

I think we need to read between the lines here…
Everything about this Event is about making money.
And it may only get worse over time.

If we could have more competitions and challenges designed for player fun and excitement I would gladly pay a monthly fee.
I would rather pay a monthly fee than have the weekly events become money making schemes.
If this keeps up soon this game will for the rich only.

I hope I do not get in trouble for this... but I think its something we players need to think about.

I love this game and have been a MW fan since 1989.

Ultimately, the game is about making money for PGI. But a blanket double XP weekend doesn't exclude anyone, double conversion for MC is great for folks who like to do that (I don't, but that's me), and half-price mech bays is rare (second time ever Mechbays went on sale)

I snagged 10 Mech Bays. Pondering a few more, but I have 17 open, and right now only I only need 13 that I can count though Feb... yeah, probably going to snag a few more.

I just wish there were actual mechs on sale.

That explains something.
I did really good in a victor and suddenly I got something. Now I know what it was. Must've started while I was playing.

Either way. After this score I got a cupcake with a 1 on it.

I'm number 1!

(Inner Sphere is OP in good hands. LBX, AC/5, 2 ML, 2 Streaks. Not a single shutdown. 5 back to back kills with no pause in between.)

[Redshift2k5]

My desktop is dead. Really did need to top up my GXP with this xp sale, too,

[The Trumpet of Gabriel]

I may have to make real cupcakes for this auspicious occasion

Pgi.... is that you?

player council, returning old players and personal reconsilliation, bonuses, freebies and goodwill abound everywhere...

Money... it's getting closer to leaping from my wallet again somehow

Was like yeah, then read the first post, Nooo. I only use PayPal now since my Aussie bank said, No to PGI.I tried to tell them, PGI had cupcakes.I guess banks don't like cupcakes.

Is it... is it finally time to level my Locusts?

[LT. HARDCASE]

Man, I wish I'd been around for double XP weekends before now. Getting 8k+ XP in one match is amazing.

It would not be better for us, if they didn't have this weekend. Whether or not it makes them money, it's great gesture toward the players.

Oh well...

I'll never understand this.

I'll preface this by saying "It takes all types" , so what I do isn't the universal way..

But I thoroughly enjoy leveling my new mechs with mech XP not GXP.

I think it makes you a better pilot leaning with a weak mech and getting progressively stronger...

Just my opinion.

[CycKath]

Bought the 6500 package, bought 30 days premium time and blew the rest on Mech Bays, leaving me just 40 MC left! Thanks PGI!

[LiGhtningFF13]

Well than guys, let's melt some metal!

[MonkeyCheese]

Well I was gonna get some MC while I could for whenever a hero locust comes so I spent the remainder on cheap mechbays, went from 4 free to 14!

52 owned bays now.

Off to finish grindin my AC20 Huggin
