With a roll of 47, the winner with their guess of 42 issss...

THE HAZMATS!

Huzzah, you guys are now the official owners of a small shard that, once upon a time, belonged to the crew of the Queen's Gambit.

AND HELP THE MODS OUT, GUYS -- we think the minimum comment requirements thing seemed to work pretty well!

It seemed to encourage activity and kept things from being too drawn out. Obviously if we do something like that in the future, we can adjust the time given and such.

Or the comments needed.

Depending on the event.

BUT DID YOU GUYS LIKE THAT??!

Did it work for you?

Let us knooow.

WOO

I think having comment requirements does help. It lets crew figure out if they can get the time to get to the required number, and does discourage things getting too drawn out.

definitely give us more lead time if you're going to do it again, even if there's still a short window. that way everyone can decide if they'll be available to participate

If it was a major event, we would have, yeah.

I liked the comment requirement cap. Think it worked well.

Updated shard page, btw.

I think the short window has its ups and downs. it's good to get things done faster, but a lot of us may be busy during that time, especially during a weekday.

ooooooh! Shard page!

Yeah, mostly we just wanted to get the shard assigned? If it was a plot-heavy thing, we definitely would've given more time.

But it was more a SURPRISE YOU'RE BEING ATTACKED WITH NO WARNING!! thing. XD

that was entertaining, I like

YEEEEAHHH \o/

THOUGH NOW the Howling Sabers are gone so we have two more shards to figure out. Dun dun dunnnn.

omai

Draco should've just taken them when he left. 8|

/Navs back over to ship

/SCREW ALL YOUR NINJA TRAPS HE KNOWS HOW TO GET AROUND THEM

/SNORT

magical ninja

Sasuke would want Draco to have them.

(pfffft)

I wonder what happens when old crew members go back to their former ships? are they ghost ships? are they overrun with giant spider ghosts??

kerpathy just for shits and giggles.

WELL. Musa's got attacked by krakens. XD;

We've not decided for the Sabers yet.

But probably they're just abandoned ships so they crash somewhere or drift away to a lonely island~

wow, so by default they are kraken fodder? LOL

Or someone raids them. /cough

ghost ships

/Brook

XDD

this seems sad. we have to fund raise to save ships and give them a good home!! SPONSOR A SHIP!!

Maybe DJ whirlpools them away so he can steal the shards.

WHO KNOWS. [shrugs]

Aw damn.

There.

DJ Whirpool...

drop the ship

HAHAHA.

/snerk

/dying of amusement

It worked out quite nicely, though admittedly a bigger window of time and perhaps an earlier warning beforehand would be appreciated for future ones, since our crew is spread across a lot of different timezones

Makes sense it was a SURPRISE ATTACK this time, though, haha.

XD

Definitely more planning time next time.

Or at least less comments for surprise things.

(Also congrats to Hazmats!)

\o/

I did enjoy watching everyone rally to get their tags in

I was happy every crew that wanted a shot managed to get things done!

UNEXPECTEDLY PINGED TO THIS PLURK hello

I WAS JUST SAYING HOW SASUKE WOULD WANT DRACO TO HAVE THE SABERS' SHARDS THAT HAVE BEEN LEFT BEHIND.

I liked the SURPRISE YOU'RE BEING ATTACKED thing, and I think it'd be cool if these pop up more often.

And maybe also for bigger events a longer lead time.

basically I was totally bummed to realize it was backdated and I couldn't participate. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT SURPRISE ATTACK

also it could be a good motivator for crews to keep the locations page updated, because maybe there can be crew-specific challenges sometimes.

maybe not always having a shard for a prize but there are dragon eggs and treasure and idk

YOU GUYS ARE CLEVER AND AMAZING and I thought it was a cool idea. :T
