The Empire of Corrington: Sign-up and Discussion

[BrickOn]

As mentioned previously, the lovely monstrosity that is Tigerlily is going free to a good home... (best suited to someone who has used their free licence but has no immediate plans to exceed the 3 boat threshold).

She's a licensed 1 WR small sloop, send her somewhere crazy at the end of the month and see what happens, the riskier the better. My only stipulation is that I'd like to MOC the results if she ends up at the bottom of the ocean (I invested in a load of seaweed a while back and want to use it), oh and she can't be sold or scrapped at Bregir's Ship Thingy either.

If no-one wants her say within one week, send her my way and she will be added to the Junkyard Trade Fleet of Quinnsville.

I`ll happily shelf down the 25 db extra license cost on her, and she`ll be spending her days until she goes under in my escorted trade runs I`ve been doing for 2 months now of a class 0 accompanied by a class 1 armed galley , which so far has yielded a full 8 doubloons muahahahaha

And you can keep the moc results if she ever sinks without problem :-)

[BrickOn]

Sounds like she'd be in good company amongst your mob , you could always send her them on a raid or something. You can have her, I am just curious to see what she could make, so I'd like to see her in the game a bit longer (I like the name if nothing else), but in two months I've only made 6 Dbs from here, plus the 2Dbs for the FB and I have plans that work better if I give her up. I do have my doubts that she would be worth 25 DBs extra though.

[Tomsche]

Well, that`s what i need to pay for her, being then my fourth ship of my rag tag fleet (50% of the 50 DB license cost).

Shall I contact Ska for the transfer of ownership and where those 25DBs need to go?

[BrickOn]

Well maybe its not urgent until later in the month, perhaps Ska needs a rest after all the action? Someone might come along and point us in the right direction if we wait here long enough, other people must transferring ships and stuff too. There's bound to be a way:-)

[CelesAurivern]

It's a licence fee paid to the the state right?

Would that not fall under a transaction to Corrington?

Transaction Form

I paid Eslandola using this form for my auction ship.

[BrickOn]

That works, thanks :-)

[Tomsche]

Okay, the 25 DB for the license updgrade has been paid then, and the TigerLily joins the ranks of the Junkyard Trade Fleet of Quinnsville

May she bring in lots of wealth, or sink trying...

Fuzzy's comment in the thread reminded me I should probably put this here:

Dear Captain Lionel

I am pleased to hear the Navy has seen fit to assign another competent officer to the new world.

Let me know if there is any way in which I can be of assisitance.

Best regards

Captain Jno. Cooke

HMS Athena

[BrickOn]

Welcome aboard Captain Lionel!

[CelesAurivern]

Welcome to Corrington, Berninhr!

We have opportunities for all, be you a military man, an academic or a merchant.

Did we mention we have an excellent pension scheme as well? :D

[SkaForHire]

Welcome Berninhr! I have added you to our private thread. (Yay new powers!) Also, if I have missed anybody, let me know!

"DISCOVERY:

Queen’s Decree of 615AE – 10 Gold medals will be struck in honor of any citizen who completes a voyage of discovery. (EGS award = 5DBs from the Corrington coffers)"

What is a voyage of discovery? At first I thought it was part of challenge 1 and 2 but I nowhere was that connection made. Is it part of the MRCA that hadn't been released?

[TitusV]

Welcome To BoBS!

[Fuzzy MacFuzz]

Hey Wolfy, very well spotted, must be those wolf senses. We are just pulling together Corrington's Royal Society of Navigation and Discovery so this is a perfect fit. Maybe the Society could oversee the awarding of these medals?

I noticed something while browsing the settlement index

Some settlements have Licensed Ships registred as moc`s in their villages, hamlet`s and whotnot`s, is this a mistake? And what if they go swim with the fishes, does that affect the TV?

[CelesAurivern]

Must be a mistake. Which of our settlements is it?

[Tomsche]

I dunno by heart which ones it where, not Corry perse I believe, I was scrolling around earlier today to check on things like TVs and such when I noticed it left or right.

Doesn`t matter for me perse, just wondered if I`d forgotten something or missed some small rule or such

[CelesAurivern]

I'm guessing it's Nova Terreli?

Ships shouldn't count for settlement value, but shipyards do.

[BrickOn]

Just another update on my School House which will be ready to teach the young Corries (and actually any other youngsters of good breeding) before the end of the month. It's currently a bit boxy (I have some ideas to change that) and more house than school at the moment. The school is a bit lacking, partly because I have yet to master combining furniture placement and SNOT floors :-). Anyway, this my first proper go at LDD (well where I've got further than placing 20 uninspired brick combos), and I reckon it's going all right, I've learnt the hard way to save often, especially when play with hinges and my ever-so-slightly addictive personality is driving the build forward at a good pace... :-)

Looking very good sofar, BrickOn! You have a lot of nice furniture there, if you ask me, and the current interior is looking nice too.

Keep it up!

[Garmadon]

Looks very good, BrickOn, looking forward to seeing that finished!

[Ayrlego]

Looking great BrickOn! I tried to calculate how much all those beautiful dark red 'brick' bricks would cost IRL... but my mind exploded!!!!!
