I have a noobish question.... if i have an omega booster for 1 day, when should i activate it.... on friday or saturday?

Activate it Thursday. And don't worry about asking "noobish" questions :)

Ahem.

Two options for 1 day omega:
Thursday AFTER downtime
Friday BEFORE downtime

Be careful not to mess up.
The moment of friday's DT is when boosters are checked, ergo booster has to be active then.

According to event details:
"To receive the bonus skill points from an active skill booster, your active skill booster must be active before downtime on 20 September."

Based on this description, one could interpret that the active booster should be active before and during the downtime (11:00 UTC) on Sept. 20 (Saturday).

If a 1-day active booster is installed BEFORE downtime (11:00 UTC) on Friday, Sept 19, then that booster will deplete before the downtime on Sept. 20 begins. If the active booster is supposed to be active DURING the downtime on Sept. 20 then that 1-day active booster should be installed AFTER the downtime on Friday, Sept 19 but BEFORE downtime on Sept. 20.

I would appreciate it if one of the devs could clarify this question.

As long as you had your booster active at some point during the event period, you will get bonus SP. We did that last time, and will do so this time as well.

I have my basic Assault, Logi, Sentinel, and Commando suits all set up with over 100 in each of them. The most expensive fitting is like 6200 ISK and I believe the Sentinel is 4500. I'm thinking I am at about 500 suits set up and I seriously hope by the end of the weekend that is at 0. Maybe I can take a few people with me during this event so as to not COMPLETELY annihilate my KDR (Which is only about a 1 to being with) and help other people contribute to the cause for the good of everyone. :) Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.

With people that have two or three characters on their account, does this mean if both Clones compete and complete at least the minimum requirements for the event, do they both get the 1million SP's if goal is reached?
