SAIL WITH ME: DECEMBER 2023

An abbreviated version of our CR Workship! Same concept, just a lot smaller. If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.

We also include a designated toplevel for Crew Recruitment where players can make OOC ad posts for others to either join or request to join or make a crew. This is all for OOC coordination, so you'll have to figure out how it works ICly.

PLAYER INFO

Player:
Contact: Preferred means of contact

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Character
Canon: Include canon point
Armada: Paladin or Corsair

About: Briefly talk about the character. Can include background info or just stick with personality traits—whatever will be most useful to help other players learn about them! You can include a link to any character profile sheets or entries you might have, too.

PLANS

General: Any ideas or plans you'd like to do with your character? This could be short term or long term.
MANTA Board: Any plans for the MANTA Board?
Event: Any plans for the event? Topleveling? Tagging out? Specific prompts that caught your interest?

Etc.: Anything else or, you know, the usual memes. NOTE: we have an image code for players to use as it will fix the width of the image to 400px. This is so large images don't take up entire pages. If your image is smaller than that you can remove the code, otherwise please use the code.

IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, create your own toplevel and comment with each character separately to it. Include your name in the subject line. Although not specifically included, you are more than welcome to write up a greeting message along with the form!

MANTA BOARD: DECEMBER 2023

The MANTA Board is posted every month, but the quests are on a "2 month cycle." This means quests can last for two months with possible updates or new additions in the second month before it completely refreshes for the next cycle.

Quests are separated into five categories and all have flat point values: General (4pts), Corsair (4pts), Paladin (4pts), Bounties (6pts), and Specials (12pts). Note: characters helping opposing armada quests will only be rewarded 2pts for participation unless specified otherwise. Special quests won't always be available so it may appear blank at most times. These can range from group quests such as for special ship upgrades or island related quests, or they could be special event quests. All quest points can be used for the Rewards Shop.

For this month's board update, the quests have been updated to reflect progress from last month, with some carrying over as is. Of note, the Paladins are continuing to deal with the previous Gallows Gambit quest with the Corsairs eligible to try to enact their own justice (Corsairs can receive FULL 4pts for the current Paladin's Gambit quest). The previous Goose bounty has been upgraded to a more menacing one, and there is a new bounty as well.

If you have any questions, comment to this entry.

CAPTAIN'S LOG #04: December 1, 2023

QUICK UPDATES

YO HO HO!! It's December, so Happy Holidays from us to you! It's also TDM month so for those interested can get a little preview through our details!

We have updated the Calendar for important dates, but here is a quick heads up on what to expect this month:

» 12/01: Sail With Me
» 12/03: EMP/ATP
» 12/13: Event/TDM
» 12/25: Reserves
» 12/01-03: Applications Period

The Manta Board has been posted with new and updated quests! A few of last month's quests have also carried over, so if you didn't have a chance to do them last month, you have another chance.

We also have some interesting quest updates! First we have a new bounty, and don't let that innocent looking fluff fool you… As for some continued quests, the Gallows Gambit in particular has a follow up with the Paladins scrambling to clean up the mess and Corsairs wanting heads for it. There is also a new Goose bounty, and it's either evolved or some new version of it has appeared. Good luck.

IMPORTANT! We didn't make this clear before, but characters helping opposing armada quests will only be rewarded 2pts for participation unless specified otherwise. This will be enforced starting this month; we will not enforce this retroactively. So if your Corsair helped a Paladin on their Paladin quest or vice versa in the past, you can count them as full 4pts. But from now on, it will only count as half as those quest rewards are meant for that particular group.

Our Rewards page has been updated with a few new limited items for the month! Unlike last time, we are not keeping the previous month's limited items, so if you missed them, they're gone! For now, anyway. We'll try to rotate them back or have another version of them another time.

Speaking of rewards, important reminder about Shellphone User IDs! All characters' ID will be their journalname, but they can change it through the Rewards page. So please be sure to buy it through the Rewards page if you haven't already!

We have officially changed the player cap to 65. More details on that here.

As a reminder, this month's AC is check-in only! We are also offering free passes to those who do submit AC. You can read more about it in the AC Results section.
