Great screenshot, Hawke! Was afraid to get too close due to the mutitude of pirates crowding the couple.

I'm with Jolly Roger and during the next event at 4PM(or is it 4:30?) I'll be telling those two "ghosts" what I think about them. Jolly Roger will have both of them for lunch if we badies get our hands on them. There's no fun in watching an event if the GMs don't say something like, "Oh no, Jollys minions have spotted us" because someone had the guts to say he was rooting for the other side. |

Ooh this was such a great event! I love happy endings, can't help it
 (Going to join the other ones too just for the fun of it, hehe!) Really appreciate how Disney is keeping us entertained, even during the busy holiday season!

It was great fun.
I was one of the few that went by John and told him that Constance was looking for him. Of course he seemed surprised and thanked us and went with her.    I liked how when they stayed still by each other long enough their "spirit forms" combined and only after a little bit did they disappear. There was a lot of humor, too. Notice the "kissing" chat in the second picture. And constance joked about how they needed to move to a house by the beach. Now I think I'll go play the bad guy... hee hee. But again, it was fun and I'm glad POTCO does these role playing events. Last edited by MacIronhawk; 12-27-2009 at 03:59 AM.. Reason: typo |

I also think you might want to re-read my post that you quoted. I am on YOUR SIDE. You want to mix it up then fine. Whatever. But sometimes...sometimes, mind you, the younger pirates among us use role playing as an excuse to cut up a bit. That's all.. Semper Fi |

Made it to Barano for the event. Tried an A server first that was ideal, but got booted. So, try again I did, and watched the entire scenario play out. Constance & John are now reunited...Sweet! They thanked the pirates for helping them. John actually said that he never trusted pirates in the past, but now realizes that we are very helpful folk. The couple met at their shanty in the Mire. Constance waited til John found her. The 2 exchanged a kiss then took off together out of the Mire away from all watching eyes. Constance did warn us that JR was not done with his evil. But, the joy of the event left everyone in great spirits...literally!

Saying that role playing the way we want to is offensive to Disney is a statement that makes me think you're saying we shouldn't have fun during the events and just listen to the GMs. I for one had fun saying that I was on Jolly Rogers' side during one of the ten minute "shows" and then having the ghosts react to that. Others, and this surprised me, told me somethings I'd rather not repeat. The GMs kicked these people out but I was surprised at how many people thought you were supposed to just watch the event. I don't see how you're on the side of playing the way you want to if you're making it seem bad to say you're on Jolly Rogers'. To pretend during the event that Jolly Roger is coming after John and that he's going to "get rid of him" is all for fun, and if anyone takes offense to that that's their problem. The GMs are certainly fine with us taking sides and saying things like, "Be gone evil spirits" so why should regular players get upset? It's a game, and if the GMs realize that, some of the very serious players should, too. The event today was fun and I hope to go to it again tomorrow. |

Well...I finally made my way to one of these events. It was last night on Galaana Ocean. Not too many pirates showed up for this one but it appears that John and Constance have groupies now.
Comments ranged from, essentially, "Look how ANNOYING I can BE!!!" to "Oh my, I am crying over how lovely you are..." to the oddest question of all, "Can I ask you a question" with no follow up. But I came away with a new appreciation of just what goes into these "events". While the whole role-playing thing isn't my cup of grog, I can see why it works on Pirates Online. It is amazing to me, though, just how little the "Ghosts" have to say. I have some decent screenies but they are just more of the same. If you want to see them, let me know... Things I don't get though.
Anyway, KUDOS to the Pirates Online folks who had the temerity to announce the Date, the time and the place of a GM Host Event. I did run into an old friend there who was not on my friends list (it was a new pirate of hers) so the whole thing worked out fine for me... |
