Ok, er, Coin, unless you got a different email than me there's a buddy code with a free month AND the offer of one month free when you sub for 6 months. BOTH are there on my email and it's definitely the EU one as I've never had an active US account, only a trial.

Well......DOH!!!
Just checked the mails more thoroughly.
TBoth of the mails I have are from the EU.
The one with the buddy code is to my active main account
The one without the buddy code is to my inactive second account!!
Still can't understand why they wouldn't want to send the buddy code to an inactive account though. Better would have been to send it saying if you reactivate for a month and your friend starts to subscribe, we'll give you free time!
Sure as hell wish I'd read the mail properly though, I feel like a n00b of Damz proportions

Are they expecting a lot of mac users to start playing? I mean if they are bringing out CoX for the mac I should imagine so, but i wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be another idea gone hitting the fan.
I havent had a single email about CoH in months. Regarding issue 13 live or the winter event, is that correct or am i off their system?

I too have not had an e-mail despite checking that I am on the list. I have had to change my e-mail recently but even that has been verified...
...and I point you all to the first line of my sig.
I am subscribed to the emails and I didn't get one either.
There does seem to be something of a scatter gun effect in progress here
Thelonious Monk
I got two emails: an EU one containing a 'buy 6 get 1 free' offer with a buddy code, and a US one (because I took out a trial?) which lacks a buddy code but along with 'buy 6 get 1 free' has 'buy 12 get 2 free' - I fully expect people to complain at length about this inequity since it's a limited time offer.
Congrats Coin you've had your Pyra moment!

i didn't get either email. just confirmed my email settings on nc site. not had anything for ages, not even a confirmation of purchasing extras like more charcter slots or the cyborg pack.
@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.
I'm one of the special ones I get the emails

So, i just got home from work to find 2 mails from NC Soft.
)
)
One is from the EU department, natch, the other is from the US department, due to me once having a US account that I used to get the passport badge (yes, I really am just that much of a badge whor......collector
Both mails tell about the Winter Event being on and both have a special offer included and here's where it gets interesting.
The US one has a fantastic offer of a Buddy Code to give to a friend with 30 days free play and the game for free downlaod so all the friend has to do is subscribe! Marvellous offer!!
The EU offer is a month free if you use their 6 month subscription, ie subscribe for 6 months, get 1 month free.
Now, the EU offer is pretty good, who doesn't like free stoof
But, given how much people are talking about the dwindling player base in the EU and less people around playing as they are all gone to the americans!!....surely having the buddy code for the EU offer would have been a better idea??
I personally have a couple of friend who might have tried this and perhaps even have subscribed afterwards! They've actually seen me play it and been intrigued. This would have been a perfect way to really get them hooked!
It just seems to be such a missed opportunity to help get the player base back up again, especially wiht all the Mac users joining us!
Anyone else have an opinion? (Heh, who am I kidding, this is the forums, of course someone does
