Just Pillage makes its glorious return for the 3rd year in a row! This time, we're going out to Cerulean, Meridian and Emerald with each ocean getting its own set of prizes! The goal of this event is to get people out there pillaging, if even for just a week. Starting February 19, 2012 and extending until February 26, 2012 all entered pirates will try to get as many non-PVP pillaging wins as they can! The entered crews that do this best will be rewarded with prizes! How-to-win: -Entry deadline: February 18, 2012 11:59:59 PM game time -Be an officer or higher in a crew when you sign up. -Post in the corresponding ocean thread with your pirate name and your crew's name. Cerulean Entry Thread Meridian Entry Thread Emerald Entry Thread -If multiple pirates wish to enter from the same crew, any prizes won will be delivered to the captain of the crew. -Due to the discovery of PVP wins counting with normal wins, PVP wins will be subtracted from their overall wins for the day. =========================== What do I win? All participating crews:  A share of a 670,000 PoE prize pool!1st place  Inferno Class Brig Gingerbread Class Brig Lagoon Class Sloop Ancient Class Sloop 3 regular sloops 200,000 PoE 2nd place  Harvest Class Cutter Cupid Class Sloop Verdant Class Sloop 2 regular sloops 150,000 PoE 3rd place  Phantom Class Sloop 2 regular Sloops 110,000 PoE 4th place 2 regular sloops 80,000 poe 5th place 2 regular sloops 50,000 poe 6th place & 7th place 1 regular sloop 25,000 poe 8th place and beyond A share of 30,000 poe ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right.

Reserved for Questions and Answers. Question: How will you keep track of non-pvp battles? Answer: I will be checking the number of battles by looking at crew battle records on the crew page. If you click on the word that appears here on your crew page (the word itself may be different on your page, but the text will be located in the same place), it will give you a list of your battles won/lost etc. from the past few days.  Question: And any officer who takes out a pilly during that week will contribute to the crew's overall battle count? Answer: It doesn't matter which member of the crew is taking out a ship and winning the battles. I do encourage pirates to share the poe with the officers who are actually leading the pillages, but I cannot enforce it. Question: Is this only restricted to officers loading a ship to pillage? Answer: In order to be eligible for a prize in this event, you need to get non-PVP pillaging wins for your crew. It does not have to be your vessel or you leading the pillage, so long as it's a vessel in your crew that is winning the battles. Question: Or will it include anyone who joins a pillage as well? Answer: If you job onto someone else's pillage, it will not help you get anything in this event, but I do encourage crews to work together, perhaps jobbing for each other so everyone gets plenty of poe, prizes and fun! Question: Will there be any penalty for losses or is it just pure number of wins? Answer: Prizes will be awarded only for non-PVP wins. Losses and dis-engages do not have any impact on this event, though I'm sure it's more fun for everyone if you win ;D Question: It says the competition runs from the [19th]. So does that mean you will be taking the report for the [19th] which is published in game on the [20th] as the first days scores - or will the [18th] battles published on the [19th] be the start point.. Answer: I'm going to take the data in the crew battle records for each date from February 19th to February 26th. So the data published in-game on the 20th that says "2-19" on it is what I'm using as the starting data. Question: I remember in the last Just Pillage everyone earned poe per win, is that still part of the event? Answer: Afraid not. This time, I've created a prize pool and that's the amount of poe that will be given out in this event. Question: Are these prizes for the top pillagers overall, or does each ocean get its own set of prizes? Answer: Each ocean gets its own set of prizes. Question: Do I have to be set to pillage for my wins to count? Answer: Nope! Any non-PVP sea battle win will count. ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right.

yay prizes ^^ i have two questions - is the prizes set under "1st place" "2nd place" and so forth are will given all to same single crew? (just making sure i got it right) and, if a crew wins the first place, to he allow to switch one of his is prizes with a prize from lower place? for example, do the first place can switch the lagoon sloop with the phantom sloop from 3rd place? |

Nope. The winners get their placement prize as it as written. If they want to trade any of their ships for lower prizes, they'll have to deal with the crew that wins that placement. ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right.

If I'm correct, I believe pvp wins was found to be included in the winning battles when this event was run last time. Will the figure you look at be (Wins-PvP Wins)? ---------------------------------------- Loathe/Forever. Cremate tells ye, "i think i just broke my hymen" |

Yes. I think I said that in the original post as this was discovered in the "Pillage 'til ye drop" event. It will be Wins - PVP Wins. ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right. Creator of Lime Day. |

-Say we have like Pillagers like 24/7, But Only I Entered, how will that work? -Will You be counting the TOTAL amount for the day[minus the PVPs] and Determine the Crew with the MOST Wins in that 7 Days, Right? -And No Captain, Only a Group of SO's <-- Is this only needed for multiple entries? |

It actually ends up being 8 total days of results, but yes, the crew that has the most wins (minus the PVP wins). Remeber that Cerulean, Meridian and Emerald are not competing with each other, they each have their own set of prizes.
If multiple pirates enter from the same crew and there is no Captain, the prize will go to one of the SO's. ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right. Creator of Lime Day. |

Im confused about the thing saying if 2 or more people enter then prizes go to captain but if I enter and anyone in crew pillaging counts then no one else needs to enter. Why mention 2 people entering if everyone in crew counts toward the contest and the 1 person who entered? If Im reading this right, I can enter for my crew and anyone in my crew that pillages and wins non pvp battles ; they all count toward my crew score. And If I were to win then the prizes go to me and Up to me to share with crew or etc. However, does this mean monster hunts etc count? Or is it strictly regular pillages?

I expect crews to have some level of honor and decency. If you sign up for this event and have 10 other officers win all the battles for your crew, I expect you to do the right thing. The reason I mention if more than one pirate signing up that prizes will go to the Captain is to end any disputes over who gets prizes. Of everyone in a crew, I believe that the captain should be the most trustworthy and honorable one because if they're not, then why would anyone be in their crew to begin with.

Any officer can sign up for their crew. If more than 1 officer signs up, prizes will go to the most senior signed up member or the captain. ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right. Creator of Lime Day. |

Still have a few days left to sign up! I'd like to thank the 95 crews signed up so far and wanted to announce that I'll be adding at least 1 bonus prize on each ocean for a secret criteria! ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right.

"A share of 30,000 poe" means that each crew that participates that doesn't place in the top 7 will get some amount of the 30,000 poe. For example, the crew with the 8th most non-PVP wins might end up getting 15,000 poe and a crew that won 1 non-PVP battle might get like 200 poe. These are just examples and will depend on the amount of wins.
Edit: This event only awards those who get non-PVP wins. Feel free to attack an alt's crew for as many PVP wins as you want, they won't get you any credit for this event. ---------------------------------------- Stevensam -Cobalt Native, founder and host of The PoE is Right.

This is going to be so much fun :) Just curious, will there be preference to win numbers? I mean, will a sloop manned by 2 pirates win and a brig manned by 16 pirates win be counted as equal? This might be a dumb question, but I haven't found the answer anywhere. ---------------------------------------- Bless on Emerald Generally congenial person. |

Does wins in the "battle brigands with the navy" mission count towards the total? Also asking this on behalf of Khalodaa - do wins in a greeter pillage count? ---------------------------------------- Native of Malachite
