yeah i dont know what you mean lol?

I can't wait! but everyone is gona surround them -_-

So they won't be on the test server?

yeah me to of my pirate account that was messed up by maintanance and cant get on it anymore!

yeah it would be cool rofl

Interesting. Sounds real cool.

But im wondering just how much any of these people will be able to:
A. Tell stories
B. Share phrases
C. Help someone or answer questions.

Because they are only (based on that schedule) going to be at any one given spot for 15 minutes, then off to a different server.

Seems like they should use fewer servers and longer times, but hey, will be attempting to find one O them Saturday mornin :)

:skull: Ahoy Mates! Ortin` ta be interestin` an` sounds pretty cool. i ortin` ta be able t` make a couple o` times listed. Tales o` th` caribbean, wannions an` hexes woohoo! i bet some o` us can teach them a thin` or two about this game aye..lol Devil`s Anvil be th` place t` be if ye want t` meet these buccanneers i presume aye? wonder if we`ll meet them else `ere slayin` some navy or sinkin` ships on a crew? I be sure thar be lots o` questions bein` asked o` these GMs. lol :) Arrrrr

thanks t` gentleman o` fortune translator haha

plunder on, Grace Squidkidd :piratewheelgo2:

Doesn't sound like a very good use of their time. Nor mine...why would I want to hear them retell an essay like "Rise of the Privateer" in broken chat phrases?

Oh wait - seeing them struggle with the chat actually *would* make me laugh quite a bit. I wonder if they'll reschedule the event, when they figure out that 2/3rds of the attendees couldn't hear them ([+] chat only!) I can just see the Q/A session now:

Q: What level does the Harrow voodoo staff unlock at?
GM's A: <no response>
Q: You can't tell me the level?
GM's A: Sorry, I guess you didn't hear me. The numbers must not be getting through. The Harrow voodoo staff quest is unlocked at staff level won ive.
Q: I know you've probably won it already...but c'mon, what level?
GM's A: won hive
Q: Hive? Aren't those called guilds here? How would a guild win me a special staff?
GM's A: on live
Q: You are making less sense each time, dude. I can find the answer on live chat support?
GM's A: zero won to tree for hive sick even ate nan ---- won hive
Q: Oh! You are from Japan? OK, let's see if I can work out the Japanese grammar. A Japanese zero pilot won a trip to see a tree, but there was a hive in it and he ate it but got sick. The emperor rewarded him with another hive. Hmmm. But what does that have to do with the voodoo staff quest?
...

Me: Good day, sir. Can you guys please fix the arrr floating NPC's?
GM: What floating NPC's?

Your going to make a lot of people mad if they see that. Lol.
But funny. :D

The "Japanese Zero" thing? :shrug: I hope no one finds a way to be offended by that. Extending a clue to a linguistics feature isn't something a person rightly COULD take offense to. Or was there something there I said that wasn't intended? If so, I'm still missing it now.

I will not be surprised if on "that day, on those servers at those times" - the filter "magically" get turned off for those few minutes... :D

P1: "Will You Be My Friend?"
GM: "Hi, I'm one of the developers..."
P1: "PLEASE?"
GM: "Sorry, we do not play the game usually"
P1: "PLEASE BE MY FRIEND"
P1: "PLEASE BE MY FRIEND"
P1: "PLEASE BE MY FRIEND"
P1: "PLEASE BE MY FRIEND"
[GM Logs Off...]

P2: "Will You Be My Boy/Girl friend?"
GM: "Im afraid personal..."
P2: "PLEASE? You Look So Nice!"
GM: "Personal int..."
P2: "COMMMON!!!"
[Gm Logs Off...]

P3: "Why can I not say arr the ship?"
GM: "Pardon?"
P3: "You Know arr the ship?"
GM: "I'm sorry can you use another word?"
P3: "D"
P3: "R"
P3: "I"
P3 "V"
P3 "E"
P3: "or"
P3: "S"
P3: "T"
P3: "E"
P3: "E"
[GM Logs off...]

On a more serious note: :D

I don't know how they expect GM's to speak when you get 50-75-100 pirates on a small island and start talking - the Chat Window alreay has major drawbacks so unless theres gonna be a 'special tab' added just for GM Talk or Everyones Chat will be disabled on the island for that time frame they are talking - the chat window will be going so fast with all the different chatter you'll never see anything they say...

It should be interesting just how they plan to say all this stuff without interruptions, and in a big enough window they cover everything in 12 minutes (since each visit is 15 minutes long - they will ned a minute or two to set up on each server as they TP'ed around... gonna be interesting).

As a final thought - I think it would be better to get to a server 'ahead' of them - and wait for their arrivial... its the only way You'll ever even get close enough to see them (docking at the island to appear in a mad sea of pirates will be wild...)

Hres a final thought PS... I own a pretty kickin' computer but even at parties of 50 pirates I tend to lag a bit... whats the Lag gonna be like at these places??? That alone cold be a whole topic...

Theres my thoughts for the moment... :D

-----

Just to save a post for Edwards Question below: I figure that since each GM is only there for 15 minutes - you'll be lucky to get three words in edgewise before they TP - so P2 has to skip the foreplay and go right for the big question LOL! :D

Won't P2 start by saying "kin i ax u somthin?" or "ur cute" or did the protocol change?

lol good one max!, how bout this?

Andrew: Ahoy GM
Gm: Ahoy there!

*GM runs and logs off*

:psmiley35:


Seriously though I would have to agree...15 minutes per server or location is just not enough time to truly meet and greet the masses and gather feedback...plus enter the equation of them becoming overwhelmed by the sheer amount of questions tossed their way at the same time while trying to answer said questions in the time period given...

If anything each GM should choose 1 server to call their own and just spend a day on it meeting and greeting the players...would be more productive and give better feedback me thinks...

Well, the GM I met arrived on Devil's Anvil as I was trying to glitch through the second rock-portal thing. (The other one goes into Barbossa's grotto.) Xavier greeted me as he came through it.

Bringing that scurvy pirate over to where other's were-a-waitin for him, he had some good little bit-o-jawin. But the scary part was the mystical clues he gave - something about a full moon or All Hallow's EVE - and a curse.

Aye, a curse. Something about relics, too thar matey.

http://i476.photobucket.com/albums/r...9_11-48-17.jpg Dressed very normal, Sarah.

Alright, just met one, and guess what, she had to use "creative chat" as well....ROFL! Got a few pics, post them in a few.

Well I went to one on Abassa..........if u wanna c them i wouldnt follow the schedule they seem to wanna stay on some servers to long lol
http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k...9_13-27-40.jpg
http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k...9_13-30-26.jpg
http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k...9_14-11-52.jpg
What a way to start my B-Day.........chasing down some GM's LOL

Hmmm? What's that? Happy Birthday, SOS!

Anyone besides me, amused that this is thread 8,000?

Happy Birthday ya bilge rat! :laughks2:

Ya got a picture of me too :) Last pic I'm over yer left shoulder - you can frame it :00001927:

Well, there was talk of the curse of Davy Jones, on All Hallows Eve - in the moonlight. My guess is that we'll all turn skelly and be able to PVP anywhere - that will be FUN!

They were also sounding out a few ideas. Like pets and gangplanks and captain quarters on ships. At least one GM (Ruby) talked about pets a few times. So those were good clues as to what they're working on.

No answers on higher levels or new boss battles tho - that was most asked.

also while visiting the GM's, Edward Edgemenace learned how to dance in the water lol
http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k...9_13-25-12.jpg

Turning into skeletons would be cool.
PVP anywhere would be a horrendous nightmare and I would not participate in the least, I dont think many pirates would want this. Only the PVP type players, which in my experience only represent a small percentage of players.


I figured they would not be answering many questions at all. The amount of time they had barely warrants them saying something scripted.

Partial transcript - intervening pirate comments removed
Xavier Hench: Oh I have dreaful [sic] news
...
XH: the Caribbean will be struck with a curse
XH: My Captain ... Captain Walter ... has told me the Jolly and his minions are stealing relics that could have the potential to cause a curse!
XH: This curse is rumored to be tied to the moon's glow ... so stay indoors or else!
...
XH: Cap't Walter is a fair cap't ... not too many lashings given on his ship :)
XH: I just import to heed my warnings ... the curse is said to be at it's [sic] strongest during the full moon on All Hallow's Eve
...
XH: Caps and weapons are all things my captain is exploring
...
XH: jolly WILL strike on All Hallow's EVE
XH: The relics he's stolen can turn man to undead being [sic]
...
XH: Living or dead ... when dead ANYTHING GOES ...
...
XH: aye ... A Death Omen striked [sic] fear in my bones ... A [sic] Krakken strikes fear in my soul
...
(answered another question)
...
XH: I have not seen the Krakken ...
...
XH: Aye, can we dance a quick jig so as to wash the thoughts of Jolly's curse outta my head
...
(ignores repeated question about having more double-reputation events)
...
XH: I must be off now ... Captain's orders.
...
XH: I hope the curse does not effect [sic] any of you all

Ahhh, so that's where you were! lol Well, the blue dots on compass were making a wall along the water's edge. Looked weird...

Captain Walter was amazingly behind schedule, just getting TO abassa. The other GMs seemed to be sticking stricktly to the schedule. Found Captain Walter on the last island. I tried to ask him if it meant just looking like skeletons, or would it be actual PvP everywhere. He stayed in "role" so the answer is a little unclear, but seems to say that it is full-on-PvP. Captain Walter said something like "Undead don't know if ye are friend or foe."

Man, wouldn't it be nice to have a chat log?

The Devil's Anvil

Aye - sorry to say Zeppers it really does look like skellys and pvp ('anything goes' - thanks Edward, that was good information).

It looks like a quest thing tho - you'd have to get artifacts. Probably dig up chests or kill undead to get them. So maybe not all bad :pirate6:

Im not too much in PvP myself, but I do love SvS. It might be a fun change of pace tho.

Guess ill have to boycott POTCO on Halloween :(

Ach - party pooper :)

Just stay indoors at night. Or plunder. Or privateer. Or dress like a respectable, law abiding person and go from shop to shop asking fer candy... (well, maybe not that last one).

That sounds a lot like ToonTowns mod hunt. That was AWSOME. :buds: This may be really fun too.

All kidding aside, that is a good day of the year to be offline! Well, it might be only during the "game night-time" portions, when the moon is out. (The moon is always full in POTCO, right?) The PvP glitchers will gravitate to Tortuga/Abassa so it may be pretty much OK, everywhere else.

lol everyone, sorry, I was bluffing.

I just hope the halloween events isnt about PVP. I've already dropped my SvS quests (no interest). I've done all the new quests...

darn I missed it

Doesn't the announcement say the 19th, 20th and 21st?

I managed to find Thatch Roberts and Captain Walter, one of them said hardly anything, kinda stood for two minutes in silence and whenever he was asked a question would mention the Halloween curse over and over. However the other one (lol i dont remember which was which anymore) got things done and said it would only be in moonlight that the curse is dangerous, so i assume if you stay away from moonlight or hide you can't get killed like pvp? As well as the curse can be broken. Also, he took a screeny of three of us holding siege charges :laughks2: and mentioned new weapons will arrive prior to the curse.

They were bombarded with friend requests and people throwing tantrums and getting their fingers stuck on the caps button hehe

Im gonna meet 1 today.

when does it even start? :)

Oh ok thanks chris. Ehh i don't wanna meet them. Anyone got pictures though?

http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f3...19_20-4-15.jpg

It was Thatch that was interesting with what he said, Captain Walter didn't say very much at all. My friend said she met with Ruby Wynn and she was also very good. I'll try and meet the rest if i can :)

Walter probably didnt talk much because he only answered questions that made sense. Or maybe hes Anti Social.

Exactly, i agree.

Eleven more minutes until a GM should show up where i'm at. If they don't then it seems disney is bad at scheduling things.

EDIT: Wow i've met two and got information for upcoming events. On Hallowen we'll all turn undead in a never ending PVP match.

I met thatch he was nice :)

All the GMs are ignoring basic access member questions. I've seen them ask why isn't everything on pirates free.
No response.
I've asked about ship customization and one GM said it is in teh works. I even asked about weapons and one GM(ben) said that there were new higher level weapon quests coming soon!
but Ben made it sound like there were new quests and new weapons!

I even asked about that weapon of Jolly Rogers and he said taht was a good idea.
This events fun.

halloween thing sound fun, but i'll be at the ren-fest dress in all me pirate garb, havin a lot of fun. hope they do add more and raise noterity

No pvp will be involved

And i met all 6 devs or 5 i dunno

I only met 1. i was way to lazy to meet more

I Enjoyed meeting the devs Ruby was the nicest.

I think we all agree Ruby is popular lol poor girl was nearly knocked down with that gathering :)

I was first to meet ruby then others came.

LOL That was so funny! :laughks2:

LOL nice edward!!

The GMs I met were rather informative but I'm confused about them implementing new guild ranks. Some say they won't, but some other GMs say they might, that's the only thing that makes me really wonder.

I'm glad to see that they came up with this idea so that it would be semi easier to get the answers out of them. And I wouldn't go to Abassa for the GMs if I were you. Too many little kids demanding answers.

Wow!
New enemies with the green glow.
I can't wait to fight a glowing level 40 stump!

Oh POTCO please don't do what toontown did and make it a V2.0 enemy. Having to kill it twice!

Did anybody ask yet when the next Story Chapter Quest will be out?

Like the Black Pearl quest was a Story Quest.

They said in a Current News page that they were working on it when they said the boss battle was back.

That was a while ago.

~Captain_Sea

We do :D The launcher-[DATE].log file that the game launches with actualy records your chat as well as many other 'gmae related items' - so you COULD scan that file and find the chat that took place...

If I get time to review the logs again I'll confirm - but feel free to look in your POTCO directory (usually C:\Program Files\Disney\Disney Online\PiratesOnline ) to review the logs - remember - there full of 'game useless info' but the chat lines should be in there as well :)

*Just a edit note* Some chat is captured - some isn't :( It may be worth while to at least check it out as their chat may be captured :)

I did get to see James Howe, twice. He did mention something about it being a good possibility of bringing Jolly back. He was great, very informative. See if u can catch up with him tomorrow. ;)

they made a mistake on the list of emotes, they forgot /time

You know that kicks you off right.

i know, but if they put in description " Suprise" it would be the best thing that ever happened on PoTCO next to the glitch filled SvS

But then people would find out and we couldnt trick em.

Thats why Chris told us about this so we, the smart ppl, can trick and control the weak minded. "Use the force Swash"

thats why we aren't those ppl that ask " I NEED A GF/BF! etc. "

:laughks2: That is so annoying.

Hehe - keep in mind Max, that I found all the "/" keywords by searching the text of the phase files! Yes, I know that log exists, but only records *my* comments when I make a typo and backspace over it. I haven't seen any of my actual comments sent in there, nor anyone else's comments. :-(

It would be really neat to have a working chat log. (But someone would complain about it, I'm sure.)

People are crazy! That girl is so o_o
whoah! i never knew someone would actually do that!

I didn't like this event much :00001927:

Well people like that are to be expected. Because this is a kids game....but....that doesn't mean we can't have some.....fun with this emote....*evil laugh*

The first 3 I met were swarmed by the crowd then the final 3 had medium to small audiences.

Today I met Ruby and Xavier, and I noticed that Ruby's schedule had changed, so all the ones who want to meet her check the list here.

I got screens of the dialogs, so I 'll try to post the most important info soon.

See ya.

I keep talking to thatch he is also cool :)

Ruby was with another unknown GM Roberta Roberts.

Yes, Ruby showed up with Roberta once, but not later (at her last showing).

Ruby, Thatch, and James were the most friendly, however thats not really true, I think the others were just bombarded with too many pirates :)

I luckily caught these 3 at times before the crowd showed up each time and got in some kudos and a few questions ;)

Invited a few of them to visit POF. Ruby indicated she does visit :) so smile everyone and keep posting your ideas :)

OK, as I said before, I 'll post the info I got from the GMs today.

Here there is a summary of the dialogs.

THE CURSE

Xavier: On All Hallow's Eve... be prepared.

Xavier: I will try to be in the batlle but if the moon light touches me... and I turn undead... I only ask for your forgiveness because ANYTHING WILL GO!
Look to the stars... Jolly will make his presence felt in many ways on All Hallow's Eve.
[...]
Pirate: You mean you can shoot navies with a gun?
Xavier: Navies won't be effected by the curse. Jolly only has intentions to destroy Pirates.


NEW ENEMIES AND BOSSES

These new enemies will be larger, stronger than anything you or I have seen before.
They carry a misterius green glow so dont attempt to defeat one alone.

There are no easy push overs.
I can tell you a tale of one... his name is Simon Butcher...

Keep your ears to the wind... we will be announcing more details shortly...

Xavier: I can Pirate.
We are always exploring the Caribbean and may turn up some quests... really really really really soon.
[...]
Pirate: What about life after level 40?

We are expanding in many ways outside of just quests...

Pirate: What about the Kracken?
The Kracken is a misterius beast... he keeps breaking our fishing nets but the moment we can get our hands on him... so will you!



Hope you find this info usefull.

See ya.:piratewheelgo2:

Very nice review William (and a 'click' on the rep button for this :) ) - it was unfortunate this weekend was Soccer tryouts... I really wanted to see it firsthand and keep those reports coming everyone :D

Wow thanks for all that info very interesting indeed.

oooh! Nice one William, very interesting. Love the thing about the skill points!

Great info William

Yes i agree i like the skill point re-distribution i made some poor choices when it comes to voodoo doll.

Mines all in the sailing, i might as well fire bubbles out my broadsides with the way i've upgraded those. Though if there is a feature to change skill points, there may be the added problem of how often you can do it or how difficult it really will be (as you will get people changing skill points for SvS, then changing them back etc)

Thanks for your comments, I'm glad to hear that you found this info interesting.

See ya.

Simply, I'm not sure what to think..
I'm tired of all these new cutlasses and staffs, whether new weapons means that or not, I don't even know if ship customization will even be worth it in Ship PvP, just leaves room for people to get booted. After all, the lag is already bad for SvS, we're gonna have to wait 5 minutes to see the turnout of a single broadside with ship customization.
