Tavern Takeover.....

[Achilles]

Hello Mates,
This may seem unbelievable to many, But I have been commissioned by Captain Walter to gather as many Founders for the feast as possible within the short period of time of Sunday (the 23rd of Nov) to Thursday, the starting day of the feast. I can tell you our Captain has a great heart for all Pirates and has special duties and expectations for Founders starting now at the Founders Feast and in the future. We as Founders need to gather together and take a leadership role within POTCO like never before.
With that said, I tell you Mates, a great leader is a good follower. As a Founder you are also a leader, and your are actually a servant of all, for such a position is not for self promotion but for POTCO edification.

The question was posed as to our duties at the feast, here is the precise answer,....

The GM's will not be attending the feast continually, our Captain and the rest our GM's need our help (Founders) in overseeing the Feast in their stead as we are co-hosts as stated. We are their honored subordinate servants if we want the task and I for one stand with my Captain in this honor.
During the feast, their may be some unusual competition events we will assist in overseeing. Many Pirates will be asking general question in regards to POTCO like quest leveling advice, weapons leveling advice, many various types of questions Pirates may not get the opportunity to ask of a high level Founder in normal day to day game playing.
I can’t tell you how many times a Pirate has come to me and asked of the Gold label and button next to my name, I proudly tell him (without sarcasm or selfish pride) of how I became a Founder, and further more how this honorable position dictates that I am here to help and advise him as best I can. (that degree is certainly at each Founders discretion based on the specific circumstances of the encounter) We must proudly stand and take our evolved position within Pirates of the Caribbean Online and not go into seclusion on the Test Server. (I love playing there as well, but open servers win most of my time)

With many Founders participating to this high calling we can assure POTCO and our GM’s are well represented, now and for future service. (and there will be)

Thanks Mates !

Welcome to POF Achilles.

It does seem somewhat unbelievable. Do you have some form of proof of your claim? It seems unusual that Disney would do this, all there prior actions indicate otherwise. I know some Founders (some in my Guild) that would be interested. But, I'd like to see more before I advocate on your behalf to help out.

I had a little proof. I asked a GM if Founders are Hosting this, then they have to serve all of us right?

He said something to the extent, If you could get them to do that you would be a mighty pirate. Ugh, well something like that.


So I have some aprons over here ==========>


All founders come get one, haha

Hand over one of those aprons, mate.

Here is my tuppence worth of input --

During the Tavern Takeover, I saw each of the GMs what was Taverning, and each at least twice. Including Capt Walter.
I specifically asked each one, "What are us Founders supposed to do at the Feast?"
Not one, including the good Captain, mentioned anything about "doing" anything. Only that we are asked to attend and "join in the celebration" with ALL pirates. That was it.
(The GMs all made a point to repeat the, "It's for ALL pirates" slogan over and over.)

Since Disney knows about these forums, if they wanted to convey a "message" then they could easily have one of their folks come on here and do it his/herself.
They also know when players' accounts started and could simply send an email to all "Founders" (even easier to do.)

That's my tuppence, keep the change.
