Testing for groggy by Mark Bladeflint

Ahoy everyone! Yesterday me and me brother Ben Lockshot has desided to test if groggy goes faster if you die or get revived. So first I had to knock myself out... About fifteen grenades later I was finally down. So Ben revived me... So it took about 10 mins to finally get me groggy out. Ya... So ten mins of standing there while Ben's checking time on his I-pod. Anyway after I got out Ben had to knock himself out. So after about twenty grenades later ( Ben was on David so he would get groggy ) Ben was knocked out. Ben's groggy went away after about nine mins Ben's groggy went away. So as soon as Ben's groggy went away... Fireworks went off! Whooo! So our conclusion is... It's about the same time either way. You also have to take what kind of computer you have, you might have a super fast computer, or a reeeeally slow computer. So remember! We will do random tests just for the enjoyment of ourselfs and all of you! Happy sailing!

An excellent job done, Mark! Just a few suggestions; in the "Top News with Mark Bladeflint," try to seperate it in to longer, more indepth paragraphs based on topic, so it seems less choppy and more organized. Other than that, great job!

P.S. And to answer your survey, I would prefer the rum ;D

Actually, the only time I was unlimited was when I got a free week around Christmas time. They sent codes out by e-mail, so that unlimited access was free!

Great job everyone!

Good job, mate. I like it. Only problem is -- Disney says they will release ship customization features in future updates. Aye, it will probably take FOREVER, but Disney has always been true to their word (just not necessarily within the time frame people would enjoy). Other than that, really good! Keep up the awesome work.
