Btw, could vessel losses be changed a bit? I don't mind captured vessels, but I find it a bit annoying that the 4 vessels that I lost, 1 was captured by and NPC (never to be seen again), 2 had mutinys (never to be seen again) and one sunk (which is reasonable). It would be great if those vessels could somehow reappear...

For now: Dragon's Teeth: Arkady (TitusV) Double Duty I: Reventazon (Legostone) Raenette (Faladrin) Double Duty II: La Mystique (MAESTRO) Double Duty III: Esmeralda (TitusV)

Well, it should still have removed 1 DB from my account though, right? :P

Just test-transferred 1 DB to you and nothing happened, you aren't alone on the issue.

Well, the last few times we only had around 5 speed 2 ships, make a second run not reasonable at all. If that changes this time and there are enough ships to reason 2 runs we can certainly do it. Else there is still this option:

Dear Sir, Your issue has been noted and I'll bring it up to our courts and see if we can make more interesting offers for everyone in the next auction or maybe even a change for this one, but don't expect anything. Regarding your accusation of price manipulation - if the vessels offered by Eslandola end in the hands of Eslandolans, we can expect more income from taxes coming our way, which is the reason we can offer discounts. Regards Jerome Monezterrell Eslandolan Sec of Navy

@Bregir The following bids will be removed: 3/5/2017 13:21:29 Bregir Corrington Plump Patty 200 3/5/2017 13:21:57 Bregir Corrington Tribute 200 3/5/2017 13:22:21 Bregir Corrington Long Beard 200 3/5/2017 13:22:45 Bregir Corrington Traders Doom 150 I'm sorry about this, but it was noted at the beginning of the topic. While we do not encourage the behavior, you can try to find an Eslandolan who bids on these vessels for you and sells them to you.

Please, for the next time, just use the form - manual entry of these is quite annoying ;) Also check if you hasn't been a higher bid before (not that it makes a difference - that bid doesn't count in that case) Current Situation: Pinto 120 Legostone Nino Grande 120 Legostone El Pollo 65 Elostirion Margert 34 Tomsche Plump Patty 100 Elostirion Tribute 120 Legostone Long Beard 120 Legostone Traders Doom 80 Elostirion Little Tyke 20 Elostirion Floating Eyepatch 15 Elostirion Nightmare 30 Elostirion Siren's Song 160 Legostone Brad the Pirate 81 Elostirion

I the challenge results are processed in the leadership and published together -> it'll likely take until end of May/early Nune until we see results... Except if the leadership decides it may be better to publish this challenge, split into many parts, in those parts.

Great! They'll stay as they are for now then (although I already placed one on the Siren's Song). I'll notify you once the auction is over who got them and for how much;) i'll add them to the first post tomorrow morning, as I'm currently only on my phone (can't copy tables around:P)

The following vessels by @Tomsche have been added to the auction: Nightmare, 2A (30 DB) Siren's Song, 5LA (80 DB) Brad the Pirate, 3A (50 DB) Tomsche, do you want a different starting bid for these and are there any factions you want to exclude from bidding on these? I also placed a bid on all vessels I'm interested in.

Btw, just a casual question - is any faction interested in selling an island? I would like to know the rates they usually go for:D

Captured ships aren't automated, currently they just get handled as regular licenses. @Phred can for sure help you here ;) When can we expect the MRCA results entered into the Summary? (Hey, last time asking helped:D)

Well, for me it doesn't matter what the case is in the end, I just want to know if this is supposed to be like this. The difference between 30% and 33% is quite small either way:P

Can you check on this again @SkaForHire? Legostone Santiago ESL 0 Caught 5HA "El Tigra" Eslandola Migery ESL 350 Caught Mardier trade fleet: 4T "Pinto" 4T2 "Nino Grande" and 3T "El Pollo" The captures seem fitting, but the DB don't fit - the Migery is a 5HA while the Santiago is a 5T. Could that also be switched out?

To the citizens of the Brick Seas, the time has once again come to auction off ships! First, I think last time we were a bit spammy, pushing this thread up to the top constantly. I want to change that, so I have prepared a google form and sheet where you can check if your bid went in. If you want to add a ship to the auction just tell me here and I'll quickly add it to the auction (under your terms, you don't have to follow the Eslandolan terms here) View the current bids here PLACE A BID Eslandola puts the following ships up for auction: Shipname Class Current Owner Minimum bid Pinto 4T2 Eslandola 60 Nino Grande 4T2 Eslandola 60 El Pollo 3T2 Eslandola 40 Margert 2T Eslandola 20 Plump Patty 4A Eslandola 60 Tribute 4A Eslandola 60 Long Beard 4A Eslandola 60 Traders Doom 3A Eslandola 50 Little Tyke 1A Eslandola 15 Floating Eyepatch 1WR Eslandola 10 For these ships the following rules apply: Eslandolans pay 80% of their bid, rounded up Marderians pay 1000% of their bid Starting bid is 20% the ships value Only Eslandolans may bid on Warships bigger than 2A sold by Eslandola (not automated, but I'll check the bids) Tomsche is offering the following ships: Nightmare 2A Tomsche 30 Siren's Song 5LA Tomsche 80 Brad the Pirate 3A Tomsche 50 No limits, everyone may bid on these. Once you bid, it is set, if you decide not to pay you'll be excluded from further auctions. If you accidentally bid too much, want to tell others you placed a bid or have any other questions tell me here. Bidding ends with the end of Saturday, March 11th anywhere in the world (so as long as it still the 11th you may continue bidding) Once again, if you want to bid, click here and enter the relevant information. Check the current bid here.

Dear Sir Edwards Wilkinson de Cauncourtois, the Squadron under my command was successful once again. Once again, we were attacked by crazy Marderian Merchants that tried to take over our much stronger ships, but we successfully defended and captured them: 4T2 "Pinto" 4T2 "Nino Grande"3T2 "El Pollo" As I was sailing along with the Catfish Supreme and Migery, both ships owned by the nation, I only require to be paid for 1/3rd of this. Jerome Monezterrell Sec. of Navy of Eslandola, Governeur of Isla de Victoria, COO and Accountant of MAESTRO

I also think the availability of licenses compared to ships dilutes the market a bit:P

Oh, the same might have happened with Santiago and Migery, so Santiago made 350 DB and captured a 5HA:D

Could we also invest 1000 DB into the venture to also profit from it? I could see this being profitable once it starts:D

Yeah, there are even a couple of Eslandolan Warships that earned some DBs:P Eslandola Migery ESL 350 Caught Mardier trade fleet: 4T "Pinto" 4T2 "Nino Grande" and 3T "El Pollo" Eslandola Catfish Supreme ESL " Legostone Cardinal ESL " Neither Catfish Supreme nor Cardinal have any number there, do they get the same value as Migery or none? Oh, and again, anyone who wants to sell captures PM me, I'll set something up over the next couple of days.

I think the most vessels we lost were held by me:P Luckily none of them were irreplaceable or difficult to pay for:P Edit: Different topic. Many of you have captured vessels, and I'm guess some of you don't want those you captured. Would there be interest in me starting a general auction Thread for this MRCA? I would volunteer setting it up (as I have to set up one for ESL vessels anyways, so why not add more vessels?), and those who want to sell vessels could just send me a PM with the necessary information (as in: shipname, current owner, former owner (might matter for some), class, starting price, factions and players you want to exclude from buying your ship etc) This time I have a different idea how to handle the bids, no matter if others want to sell their ships through it or not.

Well, I would be glad to see both 5Fs that got lost next MRCA again in some way:D (La Recouvrance and Green Winds) Also, who can beat me, with (2F:100DB, 3T2: 200DB, 5F:350DB, 5T:400 DB) 1050 DB lost in ships since the beginning?

Btw, is there any mechanic to get ships lost to mutiny back into the game? I don't mind losing a ship every now and then(I think this is the fourth one I lost so far), but as it didn't sink I would like to see those appear again at some point in time (and be it sailed into a reef, drifting around for anyone to find etc - all that would work for me)
