aye... the solid pirate thing wouldn't work very well cause, imagine you were on Abassa for an invasion and everyone is there. When Jolly Roger comes along, there are only three pirates actually able to attack him because all the others can't get past them to attack. Currently, everybody can stand in the exact same area to attack Jolly, but with solid pirates... well... let's just say it's a VERY packed crowd. Overall..... solid pirates+Abassa+event=large crowd that is impossible to get through.
