12th Fleet - 15th Anniversary Celebration! Saturday August 17, 2024, at 19:00 UTC (8PM BST/3PM EDT)

I had a great time with this yesterday! What a fantastic group we have here!!

We saw people receive fleet medals, win prizes including T6 Infinity ships, a T6 C-store ship, a lobi ship, 300 Million EC spread amongst several winners, 90 Lockbox Keys, and most importantly, we had a lot of fun!!

The fireworks display was awesome! The Archived Mission Replay was so well received that we had multiple requests to do it on a regular basis.

I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did!

Last night is one of the best nights I've ever had in this game. That was absolutely incredible- I hope we do something like that every year moving forward! I am happy to donate stuff toward prizes too

Don't blame me; it was Sysil's idea.

Sorry I missed it, my whole family (like 20 of us siblings and our kids) was at Ren Fest in MN that day for opening weekend while our sister and her family were in town.

I hope everyone had a blast and Congratz 12th Fleet on 15 years!!

Thought I was going to be able to participate at least a little bit, but my toddler refuses to nap... Maybe next year

I understand that. TOO WELL.
