July 2009 Regatta
 

This seems really cool! I'm not sure about my schedule, but I'll try to make it.

Sweet, ill try to make it.

No way I'm missing this event! It sounds like we'll have a blast!

Looks fun, and I can't miss out on an award ;)

See ye there!

Looks fun! Ill do my best to make it:D

Wow now THIS seems like a heck of alot of fun! I cant wait!

/me gets out sticky note and writes july 5th 5pm POF event

Hehe now I should remember!

sounds fun ill be there. but how long does it usually take? and where do you want us to post the screen shots?

Nice idea :D

i so want to be there but idk if i can make it

Nice idea! Will be there!

We have no idea how long this will take - it's our first ever try. So everybody has to come out and make it a huge success :HO4thSmiley013:

Please post your screen shots on this thread.

I should be able to be there, my busy day is tomorrow (Actually on the 4th), Dont think im doing too muh on Sunday.

Hope to see you all there!

Regatta 2009
 

I'll be there!

Andrea Shorecastle:HO4thSmiley013:

Sunday's usually aren't that good for me, but I'll do my darndest to be there ;)

Blockading Port Royal? There's an idea.

Not sure I can be here for the full race, but I can probably come to watch. If I post a picture yet don't race, will I still get the award. Guessing I don't, and that's perfectly fine.

Seeing as Sundays are a very slow day for me, you can bet I'll be there! Besides, ya can't miss a chance to blockade an entire island now can ya?:fireworks3:

Of course you will. Not everyone will be able to be there for the entire event because this is a holiday weekend and things are happening - just don't forget to get at least one screen shot and post it so you do get the award.

im so there! but what time is that for pacific? 12 or 1?

Neither, it's Two ;)

I'll be there in Spirit!!

:HO4thFireworks04:



It's the only way I can participate in any weekend event.

(weekend option...no holidays off...arrgh...rl intrudes)


Have fun!!!! :HO4thSmiley004:

Sounds good to me, I think I'll make it.

The Elite Thievery Company will be happy to send as many ships as possible to this event!

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...pictureid=2029

Sounds like a lot of fun! Count me in!

Ship: Shadow Eagle
Class: War Frigate

I'll try to make it, sounds fun :)

what do we need in the picture to prove we were there? and when do you want us to post the pics we do take?

No one particular item is necessary for you to prove you were there. I think I will see a lot of ships in the picture;-)

Please post your screen shots by Wednesday the 8th in order to get the award. There is already a folder in the gallery set-up to receive the Regatta shots so those unable to attend will be able to see most of the screen shots in just one place.

We're just an hour away. I'm about thirty seconds away from Devils Anvil so I guess I'll meet everyone there.

About 15 minutes until this starts!

10 more minutes! And looks like we have formed a single-file line around Devil's Anvil lol.

wait for me!!!! lol

I think somebody was out to get me and my sloop.....

Attachment 1716

great we should definitly do this again and thx for telling me how to post

OK anyone up for doing that again! That was SUPER fun!

I'd like another go at it, but next time I AM NOT launching from a privateer island lol

I'm up for it too..... and Ed... launch from spanish.. I need revenge -.-

This was sweet! I can't wait to do that again! But next time I'll be leaving my galleon in port and going for something a bit faster. :laughks2: Hey, how are you guys removing everything but the ships? It looks so cool!

I seem to have a serious problem getting Mod approval on my pictures. Seems I know some people with colorful names? I have some excellent shots but I just can't get them through yet. Will post them if I can figure out how to remove all but the ships from the picture. Help?

F12 before you take the screenie will take away the Hud and leave only the pic!

F12, as mentioned before.

Try uploading them to photobucket or another place, and copying the image code here :)

Ok, here's my pic.

:mybadki6:DOH! :mybadki6:
I can't believe I forgot! Well, at least I can see the screens. And hope we do it again.

Too bad I forgot to take it

This make you feel any better?
http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/g...-5_17-6-15.jpg

I have 92 pics from the event. It will take me a few hours to just figure out what they all are, but I will post them all.
They will be posted in 4 sets.
Set 1 Approaching/rounding Cuba.
Set 2 Between KingsHead and Cutthroat
Set 3 Approaching Port Royal
Set 4 The Port Royal blockade

I should have just about EVERY SINGLE SHIP that participated in at least one screenie. Have fun looking for yours!

I will upload and post them as soon as I can.

Much better :D

Checking to be sure everyone's lined up before taking my place at the front...

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/g...5_17-39-33.jpg

Sadly I have no screenshot of when Sven Niscadae and I sunk Jack I. :psmiley35:

I broadsided a Spanish light sloop, it was on fire. Tried to sink it but couldn't catch it!

:piratewheelgo2:

It was tons of fun :mat:

And what a sight it was!!

were we supposed to post the pics here or on the gallery? cuz i posted my two favorite on the gallery sceenshots folder


By the way it was a lot of fun until the game kicked me off

Looks like a load of fun mates. Too bad RL interfered for me. Wish I could've made it.

Glad you used our gallery. That will make it a lot easier for us to re-visit the pictures for this event and for others to quickly find them.

Yes, please post them on this thread. That is how I am giving out the awards.

Here's some more pictures. The turn out was larger than I expected. I'm glad that most of the flag ships were spanish so they were easier to spot.

I tried to be the different leader and bring up the tail end with my shiny french War Sloop, but Zilly and Sven didn't like that too much... so they sunk me when we got to PR. :laughks2:

We tried to play the game called The Hunt for The Sven Niscadae but he logged out... So Deadpool got it instead...

shhhh, Other Sven has special powers here, don't let him know

so happy to hear that all had a good time that partook in the event.

Due to a blown puter, I missed out but really enjoyed seeing the pics from hijacking my niece's puter once again.

Happy Belated 4th of July everyone!!!!!!


Li

More Cowbell!
 

Here's my Pix....Pending Moderation of course.
I had a GREAT time! I'm glad I sailed along.

And thanks be to those what sailed their Galleons,
Made it easier to catch up :laughks2:

Okay, got it through after all. And I'll sail my galleon with you any time Luckie my friend! Kinda funny how you and I were the tail end of the pack, but the only place we could find to park was near the front! :laughks2: Anyway, here's a couple from me. I outdid even Basil on pictures, I took a whopping 400 shots of the regatta. I've got a stretch where we landed that runs like a movie there are so many. I'm not posing even close to that many! But here's 3 of them. Thanks for the F12 hint guys, I'll be using that from now on!

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...pictureid=2066

A whole bunch of us setting sail at Devils Anvil.


http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...pictureid=2065

Really gives you a feel for the scope of the blockade doesn't it.

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...pictureid=2063

A great way to end off the night and one of my faves. Great view of your ship too hey Luckie?

i got a two really good shots while i was on board sarah's ship
