Partner of the Week
 
Ahoy partners!

After a long break from one of our guild's oldest traditions, I believe now is the perfect time to start anew and begin the old weekly cycle of honoring our fellow pirates once more with the reintroduction of Partner of the Week!

At the beginning of every week, a poll will be posted on the Partner of the Week Thread on the Guild Site, with a list of pirates who over the past week have shown the true qualities of a partner; kindness, loyalty, determination, leadership, and other inspiring attributes that are worthy of getting a pirate recognized! Over the course of the week, you, the partners in crime, will cast your votes deciding who you want to see honored for their work to help better the guild. Then, at the end of every week, the pirate with the most votes will be honored in a post on the Partner of the Week Thread on POForums, as well as a separate thread on the PNC Guild Site, for all the guild to revel in their hard work and dedication to being a partner in crime!

Just be aware that there are a few specifications that partners should be aware of when casting votes:
  • Only vote for pirates who deserve it! Do not vote for somebody because they are your best friend, vote for somebody that you know has had a positive effect on the guild.
  • Every partner in allowed TWO votes! You are allowed to vote for two separate pirates (though you don't have to,) but that's it!
  • You are allowed to nominate pirates to be on next week's poll, so long as you can provide a reason for their nomination. You CANNOT nominate yourself!
  • Try not to vote for yourself! It is tempting, yes, but please remember that the Partner of the Week is decided by the entire guild; if you deserve to be Partner of the Week, they'll make sure you know it :)

That's all there is to it!

The poll for the week is open, mates! Vote away!

Goodie, starting this off!!! I'll be wise on who gets my vote!!!

:O POTW is back! I'll go vote now.

On the PNC site. The link is in one of the threads in the PNC Forum.

Crimson Rose 04-14-2012 04:00 PM

:zix0r9: Confused.

Are you saying there is a separate PnC website/forum?

We have both a subforum here on POForums, and a private guild site dedicated solely for guild members. :piratear:

The guild site is located right here. Simply register yourself on the site, and once you're approved, you'll be able to take part in all the discussions that do not occur here - including voting for POTW :pirate.capta:

Captain Del 04-15-2012 07:30 PM

This week's Partner of the Week was a close tie between two of our finest guild mates! It was a tie between two of our partners right up until the end, until a final tie-breaking vote was casted that threw one of them in to this week's spotlight! And as such, this week's POTW is.....

http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/...ahempotw-1.jpg

Mayhem Evermore! (Dark Pixie!)

Ever since the first day she joined the guild nearly a year ago (next month!,) Mayhem has been a valuable addition to our guild because of her sharp wit, barreling comedy, and tireless sense of commitment to being a dedicated part of the guild. Every time she is online, Mayhem is always the pirate that is ready to start another adventure, fight another foe, and of course, shallow a few more gallons of rum from our supply ("secretly.") Even though she lives far across the pond than most of the guild, and even runs a guild herself, she still manages to be an active member of the guild and continues to amaze the rest of the guild and I with her willingness to always befriend and interact with other pirates. A true friend to all pirates, indeed :)

Mayhem has recently been making the push to try and master potions, and initiative that I clearly seem to lack! To help give her a little push towards it, I dug in to my (very shallow) pockets and got Mayhem this handy-dandy new mixer, perhaps to make her mix up those potions a little faster! ;)

http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/...tw_present.jpg

And of course, as Mayhem enjoys the splendor and spoils of being this week's Partner of the Week, she will be accompanied by our very own Pete the Parrot; may he guide you through the troubles and tribulations of the potions table to undisputed mixer mastery!

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...cgm/parrot.gif

Oh, and one last thing....

Mayhem's tireless commitment and determination to help the guild even through her disposition over the Seven Seas has really been an inspiration to the guild Officers and I, and we truly believe that she has done a lot to better the guild. With the recent drop in Officership in the guild, we have been looking for a few new pirates to step up and take the reigns of the guild - and one of these pirates, we believe, could not be more deserving than to be Mayhem Evermore.

As an extra-special present to Miss Mayhem, I would like to formally offer you the position of Veteranship in Partners N Crime, so that you can begin your journey in furthering our guild to new heights!

Congratulations, Mayhem! You truly deserve it :)

CaptainMonkeys 04-15-2012 07:59 PM

Congrats, Mayhem! I enjoy talking to you the few times I get online and nobody else is; always nice to have somebody there and talking.

~Grace

Chris Ironhawk 04-15-2012 09:24 PM

CONGRATULATIONS, MAYHEM! You truly deserved this! Welcome to the staff, and may you better this guild to new levels.

LOVE FOREVER,
~Chris

AdmiralSavvy 04-15-2012 09:39 PM

CONGRATS MAYHEM! Lurking around the forums and I see THIS. I'm proud of you, Mayhem! :D You've certainly earned the promotion, and I'm sure you'll have no problems with your new position, but since Lady Luck should never be an unwelcome guest... best of luck! :buds:

The Stealthy Pirate 04-15-2012 09:51 PM

Congrats mayhem!

Dark_Pixie 04-15-2012 10:15 PM

Thank you guys!! I think this might be the best thing that's ever happened to me on POTCO. Seriously! I feel honoured to be a veteran, and honoured that I've been given this title for just being me (as Mayhem :P). You have no idea how much I spammed guild chat after looking at this thread. :D

Thank you for the mixer - it's been coming in handy already. And thank you everyone for your kind words above. It makes me feel so special. :)

And what a lovely picture of me. I see you chose one that makes me look real good. -.-

Marry The Night 04-15-2012 10:35 PM

Congrats Mayhem, and welcome to the staff! :buds:

And yes, that is a lovely picture of you. The mustache compliments your feminine face very nicely.

HammyTheSquirrel 04-15-2012 11:10 PM

Yay, Mayhem! Congrats of POTW and the Promo. :D You deserved it.

Captain Del 04-16-2012 01:26 AM

This week's poll is open!

Please note that on the current guild site I cannot undo all of your votes, though I have set all options back to zero. If you voted in the previous poll, simply hit "[Undo Vote]" near the top of the poll and then vote on the current poll :)

Andrew was able to fix it - try now! :piratetongueor4:

Tia 04-16-2012 06:21 AM

Great job, Mayhem! You really did deserve it =)

Captain Del 04-26-2012 02:22 AM

My apologies for not getting Partner of the Week up this week - we have been having problems with the poll not being able to be undone for certain memberships on the site. I had asked Andrew to undo this problem for the poll last week, and he was able to do so - unfortunately, he only checked off the Members by accident. By the time I realized this Andrew had already taken this leave, so today with my free time during work I did some digging in to the guild site to see if your technology-defficent Guildmaster could get the job done!

It took some digging, but I managed to pull it off - ALL membergroups on the guild site may now undo their votes and vote! As a way to make up for missing this Sunday's poll, this Sunday I will choose TWO pirates to be honored, based on who has the most votes on the poll.

Get to voting, mates!

Marry The Night 04-29-2012 11:13 PM

Due to technical issues with the poll this past week, we've chosen not one, but two, Partners of the Week. This week's winners are...

http://www.darkpixie.com/images/pira.../Elizabeth.PNG http://dl.dropbox.com/u/37215601/Timmy.PNG

Elizabeth and Tim Rigmenace! (Thank you, Mayhem, for letting me use that image of Liz :p)

Ever since she joined PNC a little over a year ago, Elizabeth has been quite the quirky, outgoing, and just flat-out crazy (which, of course, we love). She's always willing to assist any member that needs it, and is a friend to essentially a friend to everyone in the guild.

Tim, whose been in the guild for quite a few years now, and who has also been recently promoted to the rank of Officer, has always been a hardworking and loyal member of the guild. He's become known for his frequent material runs; he can take down bounty hunters and warships with ease, and frankly, I'd argue that his sailing skill rivals that of our own William Goldwalker's.

As Elizabeth is, like many other members of the guild, a huge Harry Potter fan. I remember one instance in particular: Elizabeth was on Pottermore, and extremely excited about having caught the Golden Snitch. As a token of our gratitude, and to commemorate this event, our gift to Elizabeth is her own Golden Snitch.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/37215601/golden-snitch-lrg.png

For Tim, as a token of our appreciation, I've dipped into the guild funds (I am allowed to do that, right?) to buy him a fancy new cannon for his various plundering adventures! Try not to scuff it up too badly, now, Tim.

Click the image to view the full version

And of course, as per tradition, Tim and Elizabeth will be accompanied by their very own Pete the Parrot; may he guide you through your voyages throughout the Caribbean.

Congratulations, Liz and Tim! :buds:

Dark_Pixie 04-29-2012 11:46 PM

Congratulations you both! You truly deserve it! :)

HammyTheSquirrel 04-30-2012 12:27 AM

Congrats, Mates! You've both earned it! :buds:

Chalupa 04-30-2012 01:16 AM

Congratulations Tim and Elizabeth!! :bananapirate:

J.T. 04-30-2012 06:08 AM

Thank you everyone! :dancetl6:

And, I like the cannon. :newsmi4:

Captain Del 05-01-2012 01:55 AM

Congrats to the both of you! It's a true pleasure to have both of you represent our guild :)

This week's poll is open! Vote away, mates!

Captain Del 05-06-2012 06:26 PM

After a nail-biting last minute tie (we've been seeming to have plenty of those lately!) a winner for this week has been crowned! I am pleased to announce that the honor of being this week's Partner of the Week goes to...




http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/...deadAlice1.png

:dancetl6: Co-Guildmaster Alice Darkbane!!! :dancetl6:

Kyle is an invaluable member not only for the guild, but for myself. On top of being an overall outstandingly fun and out-going friend, over the past week during my brief absence Kyle has really saved my rear by filling in for me as Guildmaster, keeping a weathered eye over the guild and making sure that I knew anything that was going on. He has always proven himself to be an ever-loyal, determined, and reliable person, and this week as he has led the guild in my stead has only reinforced that. I know in my heart that I could have not been more fortunate than to have a Co-Guildmaster as driven and hard-working as Kyle, and he is earning is spot as one of the finest Officers this guild has ever seen in it's legacy!

Though Kyle is not all hard work either; on the personal level Kyle and I have become the best of friends, and through thick and thin he has proven to be one of best friends I have ever had. His love for his friends, untamed creativity, and sometimes eccentric ways have only proven to be some of his most interesting assets, and it's what makes him such a unique and fun person to be around that makes him a truly great friend to all.

Now we all know that among the many artists that Kyle fangirls over, there is a special someone that will always remain at the top of his list (and mine!) So Kyle, when you manage to get those tickets to the Born This Way Ball, be sure to take this along with you:

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...ur-Key-PIC.jpg

And of course, don't forget to take Pete the Parrot with you, who throughout this week shall guide you on your course on the "Road 2 Love:"

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...cgm/parrot.gif

Congrats, Kyle!!

HammyTheSquirrel 05-06-2012 07:16 PM

Congrats, Kyle! :buds:

Captain Gas 05-07-2012 11:08 PM

Congrats, Kyle! You are the new Rum-Buyer! :D

Marry The Night 05-17-2012 01:37 AM

There's been a bit of a delay posting this week's POTW, mainly because Delmaria's been busy with school, and... ta-da, so have I (exams are next week, so). This week's Partner of the Week is...

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/37215601/Swimming.PNG

:dancetl6: Co-Guildmaster Lady Nayana! :dancetl6:

Nayana's been a member of the guild longer than I have, and as I understand, she immediately fit into the guild. She's friendly, always willing to help out a member in need, and, as Mayhem can attest to, quite suicidal when it comes to looting (she's also rather crazy at times, but "we're all mad here.").

Some of my favorite quotes by Nayana...

Quote:

"AS;DJASDFASDFJAF I'M CRYYING"

Quote:

"I'M SCREAMING"

Quote:

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe "

And who could forget...
Quote:

GFKDJGH38EUTRYH5489REVWREIUWFHRE8DSVUNIFDc

And, of course, not long after my guilding, we became best friends; plundering together, PvPing together, SvSing together, fangirling together over our favorite boybands, and we've even been promoted together three times. :buds:

Now, we all know how much you love the Jonas Brothers, so, with a bit of hunting and a lot of money, we got you...

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jPxRl7OzYZ...phed_JB_CD.gif

And of course, don't forget to take your very own Pete the Parrot; may he guide you through the hordes of fangirls that'll likely swarm you for this album (I'd recommend keeping a bat near you).

http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/u...cgm/parrot.gif

Congrats Nayana! :buds:

Benjamin Cannonwallace 05-17-2012 02:04 AM

Congrats everyone who has been the partner of the week.

J.T. 05-17-2012 02:11 AM

Congrats Nayana!!! :D

Dark_Pixie 05-17-2012 10:40 AM

CONGRAAAATULAAATIONS NAYANA! Or should it be... Lady Danger? ;) I knew it wouldn't be too long until you became POTW. You deserve it so much! I think I've definitely grown quite close to you on the weekends when you come on rather early for someone in your time zone. And how can I forget the luck ceremonies? LAWL.

Congrats Nayana! You really, really deserve it. :D

HammyTheSquirrel 05-17-2012 09:20 PM

Congrats, Nayana! :buds: (I agree with Kyle... keep a bat close by, there might be a few mini riots outside your door o_o)

Lumos 05-18-2012 08:15 PM

LOL! Thanks guys! This means a lot to me.

And oh my gosh that album is flawless I will guard it with my life xoxoxo~
LUV U GUIEZ! <333
