Each player is limited to 30 loot bags every 3 days.

Hey Folks
Going answer a few questions.

The Pick a Prize items are a very Specific list of items not all decals, Standing items, warhorns, patterns or colors are selectable. There are 12 word decals, 12 standing items, 12 warhorns, the premium color palette, non-faction patterns, and the mechs you can select the patterns for are only the mechs in the game currently.
..

The "Gunmetal Grey" is not in the prize selection color list but in game it figures in the Premium palette, is it intended or just a bug?

Thank you for the Welcome. Yes ,I'm sorry i did get 30 and just read it since u guys pointed it out. thank you, sorry for that.

Matt when you said " the premium color palette " on page 3 that implies all colors from premium palette, not some of, could you please clarify if that was a communication error, or obsidian black and 10 other colors being missing from color choices is the error and if they will be added. Thankyou.

No need to apologize. Afaik, this is the first event where the loot bag total was not a daily total. Which is sorta nice, as it allows a player time to max the amount out or do it all in one day when possible, or somewhere in between. I thought mine was broken too til I checked in the morning, a tad more sober and read things over before posting...

Hello, It is Select Premium Colors from the premium Pallete.
Each "Pick a Prize" redeem is a Selection of Content. Sorry for the poor wording.
Next "Pick a Prize" (assuming we do another) will have a new assortment of content.

Offered decals should be renamed like in-game so WORD - ALPHA, not just ALPHA, etc.

[The Boneshaman]

aww no free mechs or mechbays wish the decals could be faction based

I did by second day, but that was because I front-loaded due to my work schedule.

Still...I wish I wasn't confined to 30 a day. I wish I could just keep going and going and going. :/

Its a pure convience thing.

[Marius Evander]

"(assuming we do another)" angry peasant rabling at the prospect of this not happening

I really like this format, it's intense but achievable, if next one could be every 4 days it would be great, then you can have each end of the brackets fall over weekend days as many people are not able to play so many mid-week.

btw, thanks for the increase in premium time on the civil war packs.

Why such pessimistic wording, Matt? This "pick a prize" is probably the best event idea I've seen in a while. Would be great if it became an MWO tradition

I know that the grab bags are capped for every three days at a total of thirty to keep the event going for people so no one finishes too early. But can grab bags be earned retroactively if thirty are not earned in the first three days? Say a player doesn't have time to play and only gets 15 matches done in the first round of grab bags. Can the player then earn forty-five in the next round to catch up during the course of the event for a total of sixty?

I am wondering if you must own the Mech you are adding the camo pattern for at point of redeem, or can you hold it over for when the Mech in question is on sale. If PGI could respond, that would be great. I'm looking at the Roughneck, but don't have the MC to purchase it. Many thanks in advance.

yes, you can

Yes! you can choose a pattern for a mech you do not own yet. (as long as it exists in game)

NO! At each Pick a prize point you can only select from the Prizes of the specified type.

I don't think you can catch up on any you missed along the way. You couldn't play 150 games in the last segment to get all the rewards, you'd have to play every couple of days.
