Competition Ended!

I am updating this top post for best visibility, Everything under the Horizontal Rule is unedited, I created and moved this topic into a competitions forum (Re-named BOTM).

Our first competition ended with a bang on a three way tie! You can view the ended poll over on the polls page.

As you can clearly see Buccaneer won, But it didn’t win the rank name, why? Because I don’t like it, I shouldn’t have added this in the first place! Blame me! The ranks Sailor and Buccaneer are way to close, basically the same rank, I was looking for a rank name that would be half the skill of a sailor.
Which leaves us with our three way tie between Cadet, Matey and Navigator, I loved every single entry and am considering adding more ranks in at a later date, the winner of new rank goes to Cadet! This was a universal decision between all PirateCraft staff & founding father.

Now to the prizes! I said the winner of the poll would win a prize, so they will and so will all the top three tied names, so using first come first serve basis of entry on the competition forum thread, we have:

• CrazyPirate1  with Buccaneer
• Markusi13 with Navigator
• shiphoo with Matey
• SuperGL with Cadet

You will pick your prizes up from GodsDead at The Cove Deed office.

So as you all know there is a giant gap between Deckhand to Sailor, Sailor in mine and reapers eye’s is a dedicated player that earns those permissions, but the gap is too big! I want to add something in between Deckhand and Sailor, that earns them a badge at around 10-12 hours gameplay, a server wide message and a few goodies gifted.

Its no walk in the park adding a new rank, but I think we need to close the gap a touch, The rank title needs to fit in with the ranking roles we have already, so it would be a low down pirate themed name we are looking for, Submit your ideas in one reply to this thread, I will put all the ideas I like into a poll for people to vote on. The winner gets this rank name implemented into the game and a custom-colour tagged item, Im thinking a diamond sword at present (open to ideas).

GodsDead’s entry:

• Lookout – A pirate that sits in the Crow’s Nest – A lookout point at the top of the highest mast of a ship.
