Noted. I really like the idea for all of your silly builds to count. Hopefully in the near future, there may be a way for each member to at least confirm what builds were submitted.

Captain Genaro is actively supporting the Oleon leadership team along with helping where he can within BoBS.

Nice work Robinnilsson. The robot-armed cart looks very good. Oleon Leadership approves

We need to refrain from messaging Skaforhire about our accounts being off. Hardly any of the accounts are currently correct. PMing him to scrutinize your accounts is not going to be beneficial to BoBS and everyone else. Doing so would likely cause him to burn out, which none of us want. He does have real life responsibilities outside of BoBS. If you still have discrepancies with your account, fill out the Adjudication Form. It may take us a little time to get to it! The accounts will get fixed. Please be patient. On a related note, Ska has not been strict on people going over in their accounts. Going over on your account a little more at this time is not a big deal, especially with the known errors. Remember, this is only a game. Ska and the rest of teh BoBS Leadership team are working to ensure current methods are streamline and automated. Then, we'll all be able to enjoy BoBS more. Thank you, Evil Captain Phred

Oleon approves. Nice look tale Dr.

This is really awesome! Great work Captain. I love all the great detail in this MOC.

Noooooooo! It's still good to see you joined BoBS. Welcome to the Brethren Seas.

Name: Astrapi Ownership: Nation of Oleon Location: Île de Zeus, Oleon's Isle of Mystery Mayor: Gideon Saulse de Bothnia (Gideon) Who can own property in Astrapi: Anyone Who can freebuild in Astrapi: Anyone Coat-of-Arms: Map: Astrapi is Oleon's first colony on the Île de Zeus. It was named after Zeus's mighty weapon, the Lightning, which legends say was dropped on the Île during the battle of the Gods versus the Titans. The settlement was originally established as a staging location for the flocking pilgrims, relic hunters and officials seeking to be the first to discover Zeus' Holy Relic. Built at the mouth of the "River of True Faith", the colony is also enjoying a rather tropical climate with mild rainfalls. The river itself is a gateway to the many inland sacred caves, forests and plateaus of the island. Some crocodiles are roaming free but they do not pose a serious threat. In fact, some native tribes regard them as Zeus favorite animals and treat them in a rather "peculiar" way. A special species of monkeys also dwell in the island, their colors being gray with orange arms. Natives say they are very easy to tame and make them act almost human-like. Natural Growth: -- Forts: Astrapi Fort | Robinnilsson403 | Small | within the settlement Fort in Astrapi | Gideon | Medium | within the settlement Additional Forts in Protection Range: -- Troops: Troops managed by Astrapi: 1 Platoon | Astrapi | 10 men Monopoly Properties: Grape Astrapi Winery | Phred | Medium Commerce Grape Plantation | Phred | Small Plantation Peppercorn Peppercorn Plantation in Astrapi | Phred | Small Plantation

Thank you Ska.

The votes have been tallied, and the winner is... Île de Zeus! An official, Ska-tastic image of our new island coming soon. I've updated our settlement listing.

Thank you for the complements. On the 4 stud long step near the helm, the center tan brick and reddish-brown plates on either side will be removed. They'll be replaced with a tan 1X4 brick with studs on the side and two 1X2 technic bricks each with two technic pin holes. Below are pictures of the bricks I'm placing in case brick descriptions don't make sense. + 2X Then, the mast base will just fit on the studs of the newly placed bricks. It's the same think I did for the main mast and (inoperable) horizontal capstan.

Nice work and nice e story Franco. Is that me on the rowboat?

Just wanted to share a progress picture of a Caravel I'm working on. It still needs the mizzen mast. The snot deck will be secured when I'm done, I still need to work on the deck.

I own both and I like the BSB a lot better. You could call me nostalgic since this set was my first large pirate set. They both may look great on a shelf, but the BSB is complete as is. The QAR doesn't have door(s) for the captain's cabin, wheels for the cannons, and access to the quarter deck. And the BSB does. I've made my BSB an Imperial ship with a quick change of the flag and crew. I would love it if TLG would make a pirate ship better than the BSB, but I don't think they have. Plus, the BSB was the first pirate ship released, which still amazes me.

Thanks Gideon. I think KB was disfigured in some sort of ship accident.

Thank you Titus. I actually built the house from the roof down. My daughter does too. She keeps on playing will my six buildings and fort that have similar accessibility to the inside with alligators being the primary visitor. I'll get right on that. What kind of property would that be? If the minions live there, then it'd be a residence. If the minions are sold and bought there then it's a commerce. If the minions work there, it could be a factory or artisan.

Here's a great example of a display I found using water: Port Staj Historical Seaport - Overview by akama1_lego, on Flickr

Be happy.

This topics was still in the first page of the Pirate MOC Forum and was only about a month old. I don't believe a lecture is necessary. Mr. Azog, please refrain creating posts full of emoticons.

Thank you all for the complements. The color balance on the photos and lighting was the same for all photos. I'm going to blame my light bulbs and failing camera. I had gotten all new, brighter bulbs, and they don't get along with my old, broken camera. Hopefully future pictures will be better when I put the dim bulbs back.

Greetings Fellow Oleanders, and those who aren't Oleon. Kolonialbeamter invited me to his house in Breshaun. Even cozy little Oleon houses have a some class. Some exterior shots: It looks like Kolonialbeamter and his wife started having coffee without me, again. I have to start showing up to these gatherings on time. At least they haven't started eating desert before I got there this time. A quick shot of the upstairs bedroom. In case you haven't noticed, I reused the roof from the Creator Apple Tree House (I love the dark blue ). I also used the door and windows. Thanks for looking.
