The Gold Diggers Crew

The Gold Diggers Crew
"Your Compass Points to Gold... And so does Ours. "

Do you have that one special War ship that you're trying to save up for? But it's just taking too darn long to earn enough gold? Well, then you've come to the right place. The Gold Diggers Crew is a special crew that cares about nothing other then gold. We spend all of our time on our ship's taking down Navy/EITC/Ghost ships to earn gold. This crew is great for quests that require sinking ships. It's also great for cannon rep. And it's great if you need more gold to upgrade your weapons or ships.
Every pirate wants to be filthy rich, so why not join The Gold Diggers Crew, and earn all the gold your heart desires?

Current Gold Diggers Crew Members:
Captain: Bucky (Ducky Wucky on POF)
Lieutenant: Fire Soul (Owoooo on POF)
First Mate: Eric Daggerhound (SymmetricSilentSoldier on POF)
Crew Member: John Sharksilver (Black Beard the Pillaging on POF)
Crew Member: Billy RaidScarlet (niltag on POF)
Crew Member: Mark Chipshot (axel006 on POF)
Crew Member: None
Crew Member: None

(Please understand that there will be a lot more crews. The Gold Diggers Crew is just starting out, so we'll have a small crew of 4, because unless someone who has a ship that can carry more people applies to be a Captain, then I'll have be the only Captain for now, and the crew won't be as big. So be sure to invite your friends! )

Definitions of Ranks:
Captain:
The Leader of the crew and the ship. Orders the crew around. Mans the Helm (Wheel). Plans enemies attacks.
Lieutenant:
Second in Command. Plans enemies attacks with the Captain but does not have the final say. Has a pretty good amount of power over the ship. Mans Cannons that are closest to the Captain.
First Mate:
Below the Lieutenant, but still has some order over the Crew.
The First Mate is in charge of keeping everyone on deck busy. Repeats the Captains orders to the Crew during a ship battle. In most cases the First Mate will take charge of one of the cannons.
Crew Members:
Follow orders from the Captain, Lieutenant and First Mate. They man the cannons and do the damage to ships.


If Absent:
(There must always be a Captain and Lieutenant. Whether Temporary or not. )
If the Captain is absent then the Lieutenant becomes Temporary Captain and the First Mate becomes Temporary Lieutenant. If both Captain and Lieutenant are absent, then the First Mate becomes Temporary Captain and he then chooses one of the Crew Members to become Temporary Lieutenant.
There will be no need for a Temporary First Mate.


Current Ship Information:
Name of Ship: Crimson Queen
Type: Galleon
Owner: Bucky
Ship HP: 7200
Ship Speed: 2800
Cargo Hold: 11
Cannons: 8
Max Shipmates: 8
Broadsides: 12/12 and 12/12
(If anyone has a better ship, then you'll be put higher in rank. )

Thanks for your interest in joining The Gold Diggers Crew. I hope to see ye sailin' with us soon!

[Owoooo]

I love taking down ships and all that stuff. So I'd be happy to join! My ship is a Light Galleon, and I am currently saving up for bigger ships. If I can join, I would like to apply for Lieutenant or maybe First Mate. Thanks!

[Ducky Wucky]

Alright, the thread is finished. Be sure to send in your Application Forms to me!

PS: Don't worry, it's not hard to join the GDC.

Reason for wanting to be on the crew:
My Cannon Skill Level is 5 sailing solo, I'm sure it could be better, (does an entire Guild collect Sailing Level points..?)

Why The Gold Diggers Crew:
Want to sail on a maxed-out War Frigate, doesn't even need to belong to me

Can ye handle a cannon:
Level 5... I take out 3 of 4 masts and just go to the next ship for fun some times.

Are ye a Scurvy Scum:
Keep to the code.

Alright, you're on the crew! Just makes sure to meet up with my Pirate later on sometime so we can befriend each other.


We need someone to be the first mate! Then we can set sail!

is this a crew or a guild?

I think this board is set to Pacific Time: -8 GMT.

My P.O.F. user page is set-up as a "War Room"- There is a world map clock that will show your time-zone when you click it (click and drag to get another zone you want to know how many hours difference).

Then there is a mini-message board "cbox"... You can make a post for what time you think you will be in the game- This cbox is a FREE version, a little slower than an Instant Message program (you need to hit "refresh" to get like real time)- But with the "Pop-Up link for this cbox, you can Book-Mark (save to favorites) and keep open just the cbox (no other graphics from this board) in back of the game (set to run in a window) to chat with/find another person using the cbox at the same time.

Also a list of Worlds from the game.

Tips for Cannon Skills in "The Helm"..? (sub-forum locked for beta here)...

They have some old "Sticky Posts" (that are O.K. but not up-dated, and I don't think they will sticky for beta 2)... But we have a Cannoneering guid

Click to SEE

that is falling to the back of the posts, but helped me out more than anything on this forum so far...

So, this means that when you get to level 15 sailing, we still won't be able to drive?

Do you think if they go "Open" soon like they say- they will offer to let us keep the accounts we make this time..? OR, do you think there will be a even a 3rd phase, re-set, do-over..?

Where as I almost can't deal with the Lagggg the game has now (I know it's the game because graphics work fine in shops and the prison), I think I'd pay for an account if it were the same price as Toon Town. Will you be working to keep the crew together..?

My personal thought was that there might be one more phase, but that's just my personal opinion.

I'll try my best to keep this crew alive, but I need the support of more members, so be sure to invite your friends!

1st. Please don't quote my whole thread post, it's pretty long, so if you could edit that, that would be awesome.

2nd. There isn't any need to post your application here and then PM me 9 minutes later with the same information. I'll reply as soon as I can.

By the way all applications are supposed to be sent via PM. Not posted here.

I'll move the link to my post to with the "War Room" (that should be working now)...

I think we should pick a Time Zone, and a world, and say... 2 or 3 (always same) hours of every day...

No matter when you play... a crew member (recruiter) should go (work your weapons) at the front gate of Fort Charles- In the world we pick- for 15-30 minutes at the hours we pick, to friend crew members (and I would like to see them brought to a player making the crew a guild).

I will plan out days and hours and time zones once we get the foundation of the crew started. Can't man the cannons and man the helm by yourself.

Yes, I joined that forum.
