Captain's Crew Nights
 

Remember what it was like when you embarked on your first ship voyage through the Caribbean? When you acquired that old, rusted cutlass, and then traded it in for that shiny steel sword that you'd been eying in the window of that blacksmithery? Even when you joined your first guild, filled with pirates so powerful and beyond your meager level that they themselves were a sight to behold? :psmiley27:

Long has it been since these days came forth. And since then, even though we constantly strive to keep our laughs hearty and our minds as sharp as our swords, we never seem to get that thrill out of things anymore. You can't go a day in the Caribbean without hearing some old sea dog in the back of a tavern cry and wail about his old sea stories. And to those kind of pirates, I say:


It's time for us pirates to get back to what made us who we are, and that's being pirates! I'm in need of a pirate crew to take out in to the Caribbean to get myself some good 'ole plunder, and I've got my eyes on you filthy sea dogs to help me out!

Every Friday Night, we as a guild will be returning to our roots, and doing the things us pirates were meant to do! Whether we decide to have a night at the taverns, a trek through the forgotten paths of the Caribbean, or a good old fashioned high seas adventure, we're bringing back that essence that made the Caribbean great, one night at a time.

If you're daring enough to join Captain Darkskull on these endeavorer, then you can find him every Friday night at 8 PM Eastern in the back of the King's Arm on Fragilles, enlisting names to join in his crew for the night. We encourage even you non-partner scallywags to come down and enjoy the fun, though you might want to look in to joining our vicious guild itself if you plan on participating every night. :pirate5:

What do you need in terms of partaking in all of this? Nothing more than a few clothes you wouldn't mind getting dirtied, a sharp sword, and a bottle of rum to pass around to your fellow mates!

See ye then, pirates! :pirate2do0:

Alright mates! I will try to be there mate!

Excellent! Glad to see this is all coming back!

Filthy!? Well, I never!

You know for sure that I'll be there!

sounds great, and i'd love to be there, but the only thing is that its the same time as the Shadow Sorcerers weekly mini-events.

A reminder for all of you forgetful landlubbers that tonight will be our first Captain's Crew Night! I'm going to need a mighty crew for our first endeavor - hope to see plenty of you there to enlist!

Tonight's event will be substituted by the Ship Blockade tonight! For those of you who need any information on the subject, just go here.

Tonight we will be meeting at 8 PM Eastern, so that way we can slip in the event we have planned before I have to run off to organize the Battle. Spoiler Alert - bring a good pair of sprinting boots!

Del, can you fill me in on what I missed via PM? Thanks.

Hmm... this'll be interesting with the Shadow Games Championship on. o_o I'll try my best to be there. ;)

Sorry, I probably won't be there unless I go crazy and decide to stay up till 1 AM. :P Tell me all about it afterwards, though. :D

Nothing wrong with staying up til 1....*cough*

Haha, Crest. xD Yeah DP, you should try it out, it's fun. :D

This week's Captain Crew Night's will be held tomorrow night (Thursday) as I will be going to a concert Friday night. I hope you all have rigged your ships pretty well.... let's see if you can swim with the sharks :psmiley35:

Hmm, I don't know if I'll be able to make it; I'll probably be busy at that time, but we'll see. ;)

RAWR... won't make it. I'll be on shortly before it though! ;)

EDIT: will make it. :)

I might make it. No promises, however.

I'll try and come ,but first:
What time and server?

Tonight's Captain's Crew Nights is dedicated to the Guild Quest! Meet in the Padres Del Fuego Jail on Kokojillo at 8 PM EST!

***Partners in Crime ONLY!***

This week's Captain's Crew Nights will be substituted by the Triangle of Terror Event! Please be sure to spread the word to all of your friends and guildies!

This week's Captain's Crew Nights will be a classic Partners In Crime event - in honor of our guild ship, the Victory Shark, we're going to be leading a Victory Shark War Fleet through the Caribbean, sinking all in sight!

There are only two regulations to this: a participating ship must be a Victory Shark, and must be a War Ship. Sound good? Good!

Remember mates, the Victory Shark War Fleet is tonight! I hope to see plenty of pirates out there on the waters!

Because it seems our guild's pockets have been more shallow than usual, tonight's Captain's Crew Night will be solely dedicated to helping us all rake in that sweet, sweet gold! We will be doing numerous plunder runs, and for change we will be ignoring the bounty hunters (for the most part.)

All pirates are welcome to join us tonight at 8 PM EST, beginning on Padres Del Fuego's docks on Kokojillo. Any later comers should look out on the waters for the Victory Shark captained by Delmaria Darkskull, or one of the various "Cobra" War Ships captained by William Goldwalker.

I will be there.......

Man! I remember those days like it was just yesterday!

Wait it was!

Thanks to Johnny and True, our captains, and everyone in the Pixie Pyrates Guild for letting me join them in the fun last night!

And yes, it would be fun to partake tonight!

the good news - I'm a level 45!
the bad - I missed it tonight :(
maybe next week

Although Operation: United We Stand! is tonight, and thusly I will be spending the night preparing for it, we are still having Crew Nights! I will be sending all of you off to Akamystic's Plunder Run tonight at 8 PM Eastern, on Savica, near the Padres shipwright. It'll be a great way for you all to have fun as a guild, as well as meet some new pirates!

Then, at around 9 PM Eastern, you all need to drop the cannons, pick up your cutlasses, and teleport to me to get ready for Operation: United We Stand!, which I hope you all can help in making a great success!

We should have a good turn out for both events. Enzo is looking forward to it as well.

Tonight for Captain's Crew Nights, the pirates are being sent on a very daring mission! In the name of the Brethren Court, a crew of brave pirates must meet tonight at 8:30 PM Eastern on the Tortuga docks of Kokojillo to aid in infiltrating the crew of Captain Ezekiel Rott to see what he's really up to... will you answer the call, pirates?

Didn't we already answer the call? We completely owned Ezekiel Rott ( Though he wasn't even trying, it was awesome xD) but some people decided to interrupt my "short" dance in PvP. O_O

Tonight for Crew Nights we'll be doing a little role-playing/raids... Never mess with the Pirate Mafia!

I finally lost in Mafia! It feels awesome! :D I should lose more often... exactly why I rarely use Gas Power in PvP.

Del can't make it tonight, so he's asked the staff to lead tonight's event.

I recall some of you mentioning that you don't have enough money to buy a brig, or customize your ships. I was planning on saving this event for when ship customization was released to Live, to commemorate POTCO's fourth anniversary and to give a little boost to your wallets. However, the update didn't come as quickly as I had assumed, so I scrapped it. As such, we're going to use a slightly altered version of the event for tonight's Crew Nights. Here are the details:


We meet on Cuba (Kokojillo Ocean), over by Elijah Minor, at 8:00 PM EDT (7 CDT, 6 MDT, 5 PDT). Once everyone is ready, we'll launch and start fleeting towards Tormenta (Phase 1). For Phase 2, when we get into Leeward Passage, we'll start plundering in the Mariner's Reef/Boiling Bay area. Phase 3, we move into Uncharted Waters to deal with any bounty hunters.

See you there, mates!

i hope it is ok but i am going to bring some shadow sorcerors with me :p

Tonight for Crew Nights, we will be having a mixture between looting and the dreaded Muertos Moon Curse. During the day, we will loot at Darkhart, raking in gold for when the Ship Customization update hits live - then, as night falls, be prepared as we head out to indulge in the terror and fun of the Muertos Moon!

Well... last weeks little moon expedition failed :laughks2:

Fear not, my children! This Friday we will try again to hunt down the moon, so be sure to be there ready to kick some serious pirate butt!

This Friday we're going to be dedicating Captain's Crew Nights to a very special purpose, in honor of the men and women throughout history who have served us. I ask that you all join us tomorrow night on the beaches of Cuba, Kokojillo, at 8 PM Eastern as we prepare to lead a pirate war fleet around the Caribbean in honor of Veteran's Day, followed by a raid on the island of Kingshead! See ya there, mates!

Well I am pretty sure I can make that, but sounds like a great idea!

ok sounds good for me :D

Get ready to rumble! I already see the navy cowering in fear!

This Crew Nights is dedicated to - you guessed it - good old guild pride! Grab your black and gold and be on at 8:30 PM Eastern so we can head out and do what us partners are the best at; making a mess, and leaving our mark!

Guildmaster is proud. :104:

Um... did I miss the event or is it still at 8:30? The times on the posts sometimes being inaccurate makes it confusing.

Wait, it is today?

Crew Nights is every Friday night. I believe Del was just posting this week's event in advance.

I'm going to be taking one of my family members out to dinner tonight, so I'm gonna push the relative time back by half an hour - be online by 8:30 PM Eastern, and we will begin the moment I get online!

Gotcha.

Ok, no problem, see you then!

I'll be there!

After a week to recuperate from our ball-of-an-anniversary party, we're gonna be starting Crew Nights up back as usual, tonight with a few games of Capture the Flag! All pirates are welcome to join us on the docks of Kingshead, Kokojillo, tonight at 8:00 PM Eastern; rules will be explained before the game is organized. See ye there, mates!

Delmaria never forgets, Stealth.

You can run.

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...-18-58-1-1.jpg

You can hide.

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...8-58-1-1-1.jpg

But he'll find you.

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...-1-1-1-1-1.jpg

I think i can make it tonight! :D

To celebrate the long-awaited arrival of Ship Customization, all pirates are welcome to join us on the Padres Docks of Kokojillo this Friday night at 8:00 PM Eastern. We're gonna be sailing repeatedly until we have enough materials to keep our Victory Sharks as the most elite fleet in the Caribbean, so be sure to be there for the fun!

The Crew Nights coming up this Friday is not going to be a very ordinary Crew Night. In light of the New Year coming down upon us, I would like to dedicate this week's Crew Nights to thinking about what went on the past year - what went right, what went wrong, and what we want to see get done in the future. We're all going to gather around a little impromptu campfire and just talk - share stories, discuss past events, laugh, cry, and overall, remember what kind of year this was for all of us (a pretty great one, if I do say so myself ;))

Crew Nights will begin this week at 7:30 PM Eastern, instead of the usual 8 o'clock time. After we spend some time in our little friendship circle, what we plan to do is open to all of you, though I do have a few neat ideas of what we could spend the evening doing. Either way, it'll be a great time for all of us! Hope to see ya there, mates :buds:

This week's Captain's Crew Nights will be used to implement a new, monthly activity formulated by our very own Co-Guildmaster Lady Nayana, called Partners In Crime Nights! Every month, on the first Friday of the month, we as a guild will get together during crew nights and assign every pirate a "partner in crime," who they will spend the night getting to know and doing activities with.

For example, if I got paired up with Lady on a night where we are sent off to do our own thing, we would spend the first hour of the time we have doing what she likes to do the most in the game, and that's my opportunity where I get to ask her some questions about herself (nothing TOO personal, now!) Then after her hour is up, we'd go do my favorite thing in-game, and it's her turn to find out some stuff about me. Occasionally we will also have nights where you and your partner will compete with other pairs in stuff like PvP's, Ship Races, Relay Races, and so forth, but that will be specified beforehand.

Partners will be assigned the night of crew nights, and partner will be different every month until we force ourselves to repeat, which shouldn't be for a while. This Friday will be spent getting to know your partner, so start thinking of what ye may want to do with him/her.

See ya then, mates!

I should be there! :D

With the foul winds of the dreaded day known as Friday the Thirteenth approaching us in just a few hours, the voodoo powers that control the very fabric of the Caribbean are growing in strength at an impeccable rate, as if you could reach out your hand and catch a handful of it. And while many gypsies and apprentice mages would see this as the perfect opportunity to hone and strengthen their skills to knew heights, there is a much more wicked tone in the air this time around!

Carlos Columbus was pushed back in to hiding after a humiliating defeat in the alleys of Port Royal at the hands of the partners in crime just a few weeks ago, fleeing as far as Caracas to hide from any Brethren mercenaries who had been hired to hunt down the weakened dog and bring him to justice. Unfortunately, the help of an outside "benefactor," who still remains anonymous, allowed him to slip pass fleets of Brethren ships and make it to his safehouse in a small group of islands just off the coast of Mexico. Here, he played it smart and kept himself in the low... but that didn't stay that way for long!

A Brethren spy who managed to tag behind Carlos has snuck back to Tortuga, where he informed Impaza, who is overseeing the partners while Delmaria is on a voyage, of Carlos's whereabouts - a small archipelago named the Islas de los Desamparados, where he has barred himself up and gathered all of his reachable allies to keep him protected.

Impaza sees this as a vital opportunity to finally overpower Carlos and secure the Headstone from his hands, which is why she is calling on all partners in crime to attend crew nights on January, Friday the Thirteenth, 2012, at 8:00 PM, to aid her in conquering what may be Carlos's final stronghold!

sounds like fun! I might actually be able to attend but I am still unsure.

Wish I could have made it, was a little busy. Was able to get on about 7:45 (didn't though), but then left again at about 8. (I'll explain on game-part of it you can tell just by logging on.)

Due to illness, it will be unlikely Ivwill make it online for Crew Nights. Therefore, the Officers will be running it tonight, same time!

This week's Crew Nights will begin at 8:45 PM instead of the usual time, so that way I will be able to be there on time and run this week's event - which is, a Baby Pirate Raid!

Pirates will come on the smallest pirate they have (preferably around or below level 15) and we will do raids of the caves on Tortuga, Port Royal, and numerous other islands that most of us have probably not touched since our wee days as pirates in the Caribbean. If you do not have a low level pirate, you will not be allowed to participate - so, I suggest that if this is the case, you consider making a basic account and creating one to be used for the event; or, better yet, start a new pirate who you can begin to work on starting tomorrow night!

See ya then, mates!

:degen:Oh my first crew night well I'll be sure to log on marshmallow for this fun event.:degen:

In the event I am not on when Crew Nights begin, the Officers will handle it for me in the beginning. Other than that, see ya tonight at 8:45 PM Eastern!

After a week of extreme stress and tiresome work that will be climaxing this Saturday, this week at Crew Nights we will be doing what Del loves to do when he needs to blow off stress - mass destruction!

Join us this week at 8 PM Eastern as the partners and I bust out the Victory Shark and sail her in to the SvS waters of Andaba for some much-needed ship sinking! We'll need every hand on deck to make sure we stay afloat, and if we end up getting plenty of mates there, we'll make a small SvS fleet out of it. See ya then, mates!

Bring your ear muffs :buds:

This sounds fun - should be able to make it, can't wait. :)

Crew Nights will be this Friday night at 8 PM Eastern, per usual :piratear:

This Friday night Del is going out to see a play, but that isn't stopping me from running crew nights - in fact, it's INSPIRED me!

Delmaria is quite the fan of theatrics, you see. Whether it's preforming an impromptu show dressed as my alter ego in front of my entire friends and family, or overreacting illness to give myself a "day off," Del considers himself a practiced actor without ever stepping foot in a theater! Of course, I have always wanted to pursue a side career in acting, but I never really thought about how to go about it... but, we all got to start somewhere!

Inspired by the show that I will be seeing on Friday night, at this week's crew nights, the Delmaria Darkskull Starving Pirate Actors Theater presents:

A reminder to you all that Sweaty Todd is TONIGHT AT 8:30 PM Eastern! See ya all there!

This week's Crew Nights will once again be held on a different evening - this SATURDAY evening at 8 PM, NOT Friday! I apologize for not holding Crew Nights on our usual dates, but I've been going on all over the place these past few Fridays that have prevented me from kicking the weekend off with me mates.

Nevertheless, this week's Saturday will be dedicated to some good, ole' fashion guild pride! Get your black and gold and get ready to rumble!

A reminder that Crew Nights are NOT tonight, but instead TOMORROW night! See ya then, mates!

Tomorrow Del is getting the chance to see his favorite Broadway play tomorrow, and in honor of it, this Friday night is going to be based off of the musical Godspell.

We're going to be doing a variety of activities that are meant to make us all feel just a little more happy about ourselves, and our environments. This is going to be a very uplifting experience for all of us, but it's gonna work the best if we're all there in a large group. So, this Friday's Crew Nights is open to ALL PIRATES!

We will gather on the little outlet of land with the crabs on Port Royal, Kokojillo, this Friday at 8 PM Eastern. See ya there, mates!

Crew Nights beginning in just a few moments! See ya there, mates!

I decided I'm getting back in to the summer mode of only releasing news for what we are doing at Crew Nights a few hours before - starting now ;)

A map for tonight's event will be posted tonight! Keep yer eyes open!

I think I might be able to attend!!!!!!! Can't wait!! :D:D:D:D:D

Tonight's event for Captain's Crew Nights will be a classic game of CAPTURE THE FLAG, hosted at Kingshead on Kokojillo! We will meet on the docks at 8 PM Eastern, and all pirates are welcome to join in!

For those of you who have never played Capture the Flag, here are a few basic rules:

1) Kingshead will be divided in to two halves - one half will be the upper half, which is above the staircase leading out of the town, which belongs to the "British Navy Team," and the lower half, all areas below that staircase, will be controlled by the "Pirate Brethren Team." The staircase itself is neutral ground.

2) Each team has a "flag" player, which will be designated at the start of the game. The "flag" must hide somewhere in his team's territory so that he can not be easily "captured" by the other team, which is done when an opposing player attunes the flag. When a flag is attuned, the team that attuned the enemy's flag wins the game. The flag cannot move.

3) When you are inside enemy territory, you can be frozen by the other team's members! If you are in the enemy's territory and you are attuned by the enemy, you must go AFK and stand where you are until you are "saved" (attuned) by somebody on your team.

4) No glitches, potions, extra doll skills (Evil Eye or Voodoo Reflect) or compass are allowed!

5) The game is won when the other team's flag is captured, or everybody on the opposing team is frozen.

That was a super fun event! I got tagged right away, though, D:
