Kwatchi Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 No he is busy with it :p but he had a lot of real life stuff to do the past two weeks :) As anxious as we all are to see what occurred, I hope he takes as much time as he needs. After over a decade of volunteer work, I learned that the quickest way to burning out is when outside pressure makes things cease to be fun. Ska, work at whatever pace you want. I doubt there is any player in BoBS who doesn't appreciate what you are doing (I'll assume on behalf of all here), and whatever time you can put in to this world you created is fine by us. Quote
Jacob Nion Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Maybe Whoops is a piratey version of I thought that would be "Arrrrr(gh)" Quote
SkaForHire Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 A little bit of all that. I actually don't have the gold totals rolled yet, and have to go out of town... I had posted something that had happened, then I realized it didn't --- because I read the targets wrong. Lets just say that I thought Eslandola wiped out a whole Oleon fleet.... But that is now in bizzaro BoBSland... I will say that Corrington's luck did not hold, and Karma is eh.... ah... yeah. One nations made it through virtually unscathed though. Quote
Kwatchi Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 As teasers go, that's a good 'un. Enjoy your weekend and thanks giving me something to look forward to next week! Quote

SkaForHire Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 I am not that mean... Well, some of you are going to think so after this post. But, I will let you know who did not make it home this month, and leave the epic battles for the newspapers. IT was NOT a good month to be a warship... These might not be all the casualties, It was a quick look over the list. This may allow some of you to start building your result builds though. April Casualty List, by Pennington and Pennington Insurance. Corrington HMS Queens Glory – taken by pirates HMS Otter – Sunk by Pirates Nightingale – Sunk by Pirates The Morning Rose – Sunk by Pirates HMS Bull Shark – Taken by Carno Privateer Corland Provider – Mutiny Golden Filly – Taken by pirates HMS Lover's Quarrel - taken by pirates HMS Paradise - Destroyed by pirates Eslandola Stubborn Stern – Sank at Sea.

Capt Wolf Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Two mutinies?! I believe that's a result we haven't seen before... Quote
MKJoshA Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Wow! That's a lot of pirate activity! Are those all NPC pirates or is there hope for some of us Sea Rats? Quote
Umbra-Manis Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Revenant – Taken by Pirates I wasn't aware the Pirates had bears now. Quote
SkaForHire Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 Most of the pirate activity happened in zones that had more than 40 player vessels in them, there was a modifier that increased activity for these zones. We had a surprisingly high catch rate, whereas in previous months many of the attacked ships simply sailed away. The Sea Rats caught... a Sea Rat.... and let them go. Also I won't say who else they should have caught, but they specifically said in their MRCA form not to attack one of the nations, which they caught three times!!! Quote
Maxim I Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Ska, small correction: Transferata is owned by Titus, thus being Eslandolan. Other than that, pfiew! Quote
Tomsche Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 So the Junkyard Fleet of Quinnsville slipped through danger once again it seems. HMS Green Dragon is becoming a veteran like this hehehe Quote

Tomsche Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 I dind`t get near that Hurricane, I just sailed the whole ocean without escort for some banana`s Quote
dr_spock Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 The results look like a golden age of piracy. Unfortunately, those pirates are not the Sea Rats. That would be a winfall in captured ships. No one wanted to touch the Queen's bananas? Quote
gedren_y Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 The Dark Lightning looks to have avoided trouble yet again. She may be an Eslandola Fleet ship, but I do have some interest in her survival. Quote

blackdeathgr Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Oh, nooooo, our very expensive fleet got decimated??? Death to (NPC) Pirates!!! Anyone bringing me a head of a pirate is going to have 1 DB from me as a reward! Scourge of the earth!!! And hang those mutineers! And... and... and...!!! Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 April Casualty List, by Pennington and Pennington Insurance. Eslandola Stubborn Stern – Sank at Sea. The Bright Owl – Sank at Sea. So much for that stubborn ship ... it brought back some money at least once in its lifetime .... The East Wind Trading Company is a little unfortunate out of success lost at sea.... Quote
TitusV Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Ska, small correction: Transferata is owned by Titus, thus being Eslandolan. Other than that, pfiew! That's right, thanks. And altough I don't like my ship having a mutiny, I am glad Eslandola and MAESTRO got through so well Quote
Bregir Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 Man, that King's Port Advertiser must be one of the most eagerly anticipated journals of all time! They will certainly not suffer from dwindling subscriptions! Quote
MKJoshA Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 I can't take it! Ska, is it going to come out today or should I go run in circles some more? My co-workers are already starting to look at me funny Quote
Kai NRG Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 Oh boy... here goes the F5 button again. (Actually, I haven't been doing that, but I'm sure plenty of other members will make up for my neglect. ) Quote
Capn Frank Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 (Actually, I haven't been doing that, but I'm sure plenty of other members will make up for my neglect. ) Yes, I do. Quote
