Happy Birthday! 

*Bothers* - An emote made up by Octi I think which is used to describe generally whacking at people in a girly fashion! Basically bothering people.

I "lol"ed.



The only non-obvious single word emote I use is *cackles*: cruel / wicked laugh, but mostly I use a couple of words for emotes.

Barring unforeseeable circumstances, I will be away for the weekend, leaving either Thursday evening or Friday morning.

So keep yer dirty hands off me ships!

Following several recent incidents involving pirates, including my own abduction, I decided that it would be prudent to gather intelligence on our enemy.

Using what little I could recall from my own abduction, I drew up some rough maps, gathered some guardsmen, and set sail for Buccaneer's Den!

When we arrived, I instructed my "crew" to change into a disguise, and for the Scouts to fall in behind us in the shadows. We were to attempt to infiltrate the town, and gather as much information on the pirates as possible.

The townsfolk would nay even look us in the eye, so instilled with fear by the pirates that they would not dare say a word to a stranger.

We ventured into the jungle in search of the scoundrels themselves; both myself and Hoagie (disguised as our "pirate captain") had some idea of their location.

We found a few ships along the shore, although none were identifiable as pirate vessels; indeed, they may even have been stolen ships from innocent sailors!

We eventually came across some small stone buildings, and inside a man introduced himself as Norman Blackblad, and offered us a drink.

As we explored the small structure, we stumbled across a large cannon on it's roof! A few cannon balls lay nearby, but most alarming of all, a black flag with a white skull and crossbones: the mark of Pirates!

We hastily made our retreat.

However, as we were leaving, "Captain" Hoagie decided to knock off the Pirate's hat! A chase ensued, but fortunately our Scout backup incapacitated him, and we were able to make our escape.

The journey back was mostly uneventful; save for Watchman Tel'var sneaking overboard whilst I was checking the rudder, and almost getting left behind! Kal threw him a "floatation device", which in turn dragged up a Kraken and a Sea Serpent from the depths of the ocean!


Yet our intelligence is clear; there are Pirates in Buc's Den, they have ships, and large coastal weaponry. Could their cannons be loaded onto their vessels? Could Cove be at risk?

Hopefully this report will allow us to safeguard ourselves against their threat.

I really didn't realise it wasn't in Beta anymore. In that case, I am a lot more disappointed with how it looks. But I still stand by the fact that some of the 2D client looked awful in the beginning. Not THAT awful, I agree, but they do have a hard task; it's not as simple as creating a new game, like UO first was, but translating a decade-old game that people know back to front and love dearly.

The thing people have to bear in mind is that it IS half finished, no one's claiming otherwise. It's a Beta, what do you expect?

I actually like the idea. And understand it

Without meaning to detract from your idea, it's been thought of many times in the past; and each time has been met with EA completely ignoring the idea as usual. Although I do think it is a good idea, and even thought of it myself once upon a time.

Bah, why did ye colour me in green one one o' them sketches?

A good training! Cold, but marvelous!

An example of how a recent camp went, on Raiden's Survival Training.

*the following decree is made, with the naval seal at the top*
