Slay a Skeleton Competition


Do you have a yearning to defeat lots and lots of those undead boneheads? If so, now's the time. Why? Thinning out Jolly's ranks is one way to slow the invasions and weaken his hold in the Caribbean. So why not make a sport of it?

Help even the odds during the next invasion - defeat as many skeletons as you can!


Much like our popular Strongest Guild Competition, every Pirate must try to defeat as many undead skeletons as they can! It's fun but also, you'll be doing all the Pirates of the Caribbean a service by evening the odds in the next invasion. If you experienced the invasions - you know - there's just too many of them storming the beaches! So start planning today - and may the best Pirate win!

What: Slay a Skeleton Competition
When: Nov. 12 - Nov.17

The Details: We'll rank the top 30 Pirates daily. At the end of the competition we will recognize the Pirate who has defeated the most skeletons and he (or she) will have the honor of calling themselves the Skeleton Slayer of the Caribbean!

Sorry D, but killing thousands of level 1 skellies for hours on end just doesn't seem like a good use of time to me. I think I'll find something more productive to do. Like learning to drink milk through my eye.

Omg

In any case just another sad, sad example of Disney wasting our time and energy for nothing.
Even if this only refers to killing skeletons during an invasion(which would certainly make more sense) I can not see wasting my time for nothing and as the post implies there is no reward. I already have the honor of calling myself a "Skeleton Slayer of the Caribbean." I can also call myself slayer of just about everything else in the Caribbean and I don't have to spend valuable time to prove it, LOL

Or, you can just not participate. Just like the Strongest Guild competition, nobody is forcing anybody to do anything. For those who are interested, please don't rain on others' parades.

I for one will do my utmost to rank as highly as possible (probably won't do great, but hey--why not try?). Nobody should really care one way or another whether I want to do this or not.

Hey Krewe: ye mates up for seeing how many Krewe mates we can get ranked in this?

Besides... doesn't it state that this will help even the odds for the invasions? Seems to have a purpose to me....
