As much as I hate topics asking for Devs to read them, I’m left with little option. But that's because I have little faith in the /ccr system of late. Anyhow. Let me recall Walrus'words:

Ahhh...crud. That was supposed to be a surprise.

Mobius Code isn't a mistake--the Ability has been added to the game. However, because no one was getting it yet, we didn't mention it in the patch notes. Unfortunately, in our discussions on the topic, we inconveniently forgot that it was going to show up on the UI. In the immortal words of Homer: "D'oh!"

As far as getting the Ability itself goes...let's just say you'll be needing to leave a spot open in your Inventory soon. SMILEY


Note the bold part. Also note the following:

“The Ability itself is going to be granted to all players as a "thank you" for sticking with us or coming on board. The exact date you'll get it has not been officially determined, but it will be soon enough to make it...appropriately useful.”

So what's the problem? Well I didn't get it. Perhaps I didn't “stick” with the game long enough? =(

I present these screen shots as evidence (shame you can't /ccr screenshots anymore).
Awakened tree, note the sky to prove it's today.
Also today, yet this character has the code.
As warned by Walrus (bolded section) my inventory is not full. Nor, to the best of my knowledge, was my loading area – a rarity for level 50s as others can contest. To put it bluntly, I am not happy. The event has for the most part been a wash out for me due to bugged spawns and now this! Despite heeding the warning to keep my inventory open! Is there any chance at all, that this mistake could corrected?

And yes, I know there's the tech support, but as far as I can tell the people who can help are more likely to hear of the problem from here than from there and Joel will just give the usual /ccr response. And as already stated while I have sent in a ticket on this, I doubt anything will come as a result - most know what SOE support are like =( And I am not going to accept the standard cookie cutter response that "replacement items" cannot be given. How is it a replacement when I never got it in the first place due to no fault of my own?

/mood angry

(as for the reward? It's a cookie for whoever can help)

Absolutely wonderful. It was placed in the code archive after NUMEROUS POSTS about keeping an INVENTORY slot free. Anyone who does coding and has multiple trees will usually have a full code archive. Looks like coders get the shaft once more. Outside that, what is the point in a 10 minute timer on an item that heals roughly equivalent to a health pill 5?

that sucks that all of these people didnt get there's i got mine ok and all, but one of my crewmates who hadint been on in months came back for the event he didnt know what the thing was put it in his inventory and got killed bam no more code. the devs really should have just loaded it into our active abbility's rather than risking us not having inventory/code storage room i mean who doesnt want a free heal that takes up no memory footprint.

If MxO is going down, I guess this is proof...
