But what could be causing this rash of strange new creatures? Some of the townsfolk and sailors say it's mere coincidence. However, Pirates are a superstitious group and think something more sinister is afoot. Could they have something to do with the new, uncharted islands that have arisen? Or worse, could these strange, new fishes be involved in another one of Jolly Roger's evil plans? What thinks ye?

Come on guys! Am I the only one here who feels bad for those poor fish?! We have the chance to make a difference and save them from drowning in water.. and possibly silence our stomachs in the process.

I don't know what it is. Maybe it is a minigame where the fish eats half of your ship and then you have to find out some way to get back out on the island using a little peice of wood. Here is a picture of the fish. Really, he looks scary!

I like Charles' idea. That sounds much more exciting than Toontown. But hey, maybe we'll finally get to meet those fish we were naming from the phase files picture!

I just noticed that it says could it have something to do with the new, uncharted islands that have arisen? That could mean Raven's Cove!!!!! Where Captain Walter disappeared. We need to find more about this before we can be too sure what these fishies are and where they are coming from.

Not to offends Toontown lovers. But they really need a whole new renovation with the graphics I mean POTCO is a little better.

Remember waaaay back when people said, 'Hey, we should be able to have trades like in other games. You know... blacksmith... etc!'

Well, guess what...

Shipwright is a trade. Fisherman is a trade.

Be careful what you wish for. You may just get it!

Maybe we'll start to see these "uncharted islands" with the next test game update or maybe one or two of these "islands" will come with this "fishing" mini-game? Who knows?

Toontown doesn't need a graphic makeover, because it's just that, a toon game. It's supposed to look unreal.

Although in the coming years I'd like to see some of the textures become sharper, and the framerate to increase.

Also, James, you're probably right. What I believe they're doing, is releasing all these minigames to keep us busy, for now, while they work on the finishing touches to the islands.(possibly new caves or whatever, that they've been working on, on their computers)

It's been potions, cannon defense, and next it'll be fishing. Hopefully that means it'll be mysterious islands, and then a second story quest. I'm hoping, but not giving my hopes up.

Has anyone checked to make sure new islands are not out there? I saw that the game was updating when I logged in, but I do not know how long it lasted I got distracted. I was in game for a short time then left. Checked here saw nothing.
