I've been noticing a good number of Chewbacca portraits in my Arena and in GA but I was curious how many people actually equipped the new Title/Portrait. Our data experts showed me that over 97k players that have equipped the "Loyal Friend" title and the Portrait commemorating Peter Mayhew. That's pretty amazing! Thanks for keeping the memory alive!

    If we make it 100K players will you send out a full MKV stun gun and 3 CW chewie shards?

    Do you always post Friday Fun Facts? If not, you totally should. That'd be a nice, fun little boost of morale.

    This is the first time but maybe we can make into something regular. I like cool data!

  • Yeah, I remember when I saw the rough numbers on who unlocked JKR, DR, and Malak the first time around, that was really interesting to see.

    MASSIVE missed oppertunity here for a throwback to original players to not toss out 3 Chewy shards....

    I was seriously disappointed and Carrie of all people should have recognized that and made it happen! Small gesture, throwback and community chuckle missed.

    On the one hand, I get it, it would have been funny.

    On the other hand, when someone dies is probably not the time to be funny :)

    The Fun Fact is definitely a great way to engage the community and provide some decent fun.

    Personally, I would be curious to know the exact number of zetas for each character in the game or how many G12 Bohdi/Roses exist just for the heck of it.
  • Wearing the portrait proudly. My CWC is still at level 76 where I was when I finished needing him, and I don't recall farming his shards much, shard farming came later. Sitting at 114/100 as I haven't felt the need to 7* that old toon when LegChew makes so much more sense to pump gear into. Pretty sure most of those shards came from bronziums, makegoods and anniversary events.

    TLDR, rip Peter, we'll miss you.
    Make Bronzium autoplay opening an option.

    Yes please!
    #CloneHelmets4Life...VICTORY!!!! :smiley: "I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere." The more you tighten your grip, CG/EA, the more whales will slip through your fingers (and go F2P or quit).

    Thanks TVF. SWGOH.GG provides an a solid data set, but it doesn't account for, to my knowledge, all the players that don't use it and its not completely accurate. For example, I zetad General Kenobi the day his zeta came out and it does not show up on my profile. So I am curious how many exist in the game overall, but thanks again.
  • The stats I really want to know - how many HYs and threepios have you killed?

    This thread is a nice idea, would be cool to have regular fun facts like that. :)
    I switched back to my favourite picture, but will keep the title for a while. Do you know if they are planning to add something similar for Leia/Carrie Fisher, maybe after the next movie?
  • Ya this'll be fun for every Friday!
    😀
    This is... SPARTAAAAAAA

    Yes. And a name change of “explicit word + EA/CG”
  • I had one arena opponent not so long back who only had Hermit Yoda and 3PO in their team. As soon as I clicked to fight them the victory screen came on and I was awarded the win instantly.
  • The stats I really want to know - how many HYs and threepios have you killed?

    It's not too hard to kill them.Remove their buffs with Ventress or someone and fracture.
    THE SUPREME JAWA OVERLORD!
