Tavern Takeover.....

[ukebec]

I had an issue with my screenies today on Tavern Takeover. I don't know if the lag kept them from saving, or if you can only hold a set amount of screenies in the file.

I only got one that pertains to game advances - even though I took 13-15. This is the idea that we be able to bury gold to circumvent the gold cap (which I think is a GREAT idea), and as another way of transferring gold to friends (and unfortunately I didn't get the whole convo):



Sorry - I'm not great with images. She says, regarding the idea, "I'll take that to the overseers, it's a fine one Anne". I told her "Not my idea, but thank you." And she said to tell the one who's idea it was that it was a "sound one".

When I asked Rose Winsome directly if we could hope for a raise in the notoriety cap to at least 50 within the next 12 months she said "I think you will be very pleased". She also told another pirate she thought 50-60 was a very reasonable request.

I'm taking that as they've heard our pleas and are working on it.

When asked about the Harkaway Rose said she knew nothing about it. Rose is a no-nonsense GM. If she doesn't know she tells you right out instead of that mystical "there are forces at work" junk. But she also strikes me as not in-the-know for all the developments, so I'm not sure what to make of that.

Rose said she'd seen the Kraken, knows it's on the way, but knows nothing more than that. To me, in GM speak, this is again "we're working on it but don't know how long it's going to take". However, she also mentioned there is never an end to our tasks in the Caribbean. The way she said it (rotten screenies, I had it captured) led me to believe this is the next story chapter.

Captain Walter had an odd thing to say when questioned about pets in the game. He said he had a parrot given to him by an old sea salt for many errands he'd completed. This led me (and another pirate present) to deduce that pets will be a quest. Sounds like Gunner all over again IMO.

They're being much more cadgy about the return of the curse. I almost get the feeling they're not sure it will be ready for the Founder's Feast, which puzzles me, since the code is already there.

Both GMs (Captain Walter and Rose) again stressed for all pirates to look their best for the feast. Rose said the men "shouldn't smell like animals" and kept mentioning she needed to find her jewels to wear. She complimented several people specifically, saying they looked good for the Founder's Feast. When I asked Rose directly about the Founders' responsibilities during the feast she said Founders needed to "keep the fires lit and the dancing going into the night", so I'm still not sure if Founders have actual tasks to perform or not.

Again, info that the "smithees" are working on ship customization and new weapons

That's what I got from today. Hope it's helpful. I spent 3 hours stalking 2 GMs and they've probably got me on some watch list now, but if it tells us something new it's worth it.
