I'm going to be running a series of old-style bake-offs for sailing, carpentry and bilging, one (or sometimes two) per weekend for the few months, until I've done each puzzle on each ocean. This is an exciting chance for those are you who excel at the duty puzzles to win real-life prizes! The real-life prizes include a tote bag, a mousepad, and various mugs. Currently running ENCORE EDITION: RIGGING! For those of you new to these, or those or you whose brains are too rum-addled to remember a few months back, here's how they will work.

I speak on behalf of many pirates I'm sure when I say thank you for bringing back, if even for just this one time, the old-style bakeoffs. I know a lot of pirates have been missing them and will look forward to the opprotunity to compete in them once more! ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right.

I have two questions... Will you have a bakeoff the weekend after Christmas similar holidays? Is there a way you will be able to evade the monkey ship? I know we had an impromptu bakeoff got screwed up because the ship that was supposed to PVP us got hit by the monkey ship multiple times and it screwed up the stats of those on the ship. ---------------------------------------- Amberre of Cobalt Me Carpenting Crip says, "but i wouldnt mind her as a gf i would just use the words" Crip says, "sthu woman." |

Familiars: yes, only parrot, octopus, monkey, and for this series of bake-offs, the type and color are pre-defined Weekend: yes, this includes the weekends at the end of December and start of January Monkey ship: I'm working on two ships, starting with empty holds and adding rum only once we're in battle. I'm hoping that will be sufficient to keep the monkeys away! |

I'll try and update this "quote" with the winners of the familiars and real-life prizes. Note from Apollo: you're noting the parrot winners here, but remember that those aren't necessarily the bake-off winners
I'd be highly appreciative if people posted the winner of each so I can update. ---------------------------------------- ~ Ravkiki "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will scar me for life!"

I really need to know what time 8:30 am is Where you are. Because I just sat here for 30 mins waiting fer ye whisk to ship and it is now 8:45am 1-4-2009 and nothing. Then i go to comp. tab it says comp. is over that is discouraging. Can ye post the time zone ye be at so that all can enjoy these events. Example I am at 8:50am Eastern Time. |
