Sorry about that then, I had forgotten that the Fs have a speed above their class. You're good!

Amazing index Elosterion, hats off to you for taking this on!

The Double Duty convoy is designed for ships with a speed of 3, and the Wringe II just has a speed of 2. I'm checking with Ska to make sure that that won't slow the other ships down. If it doesn't, you're welcome to join, but you won't be able to visit all three ports.

A very nice ship, looks very fast and maneuverable. The checkered green and white on the side is great as well!

If that's the case, I was certainly not aware of it... I was under the impression that a ship with less zones would stop after reaching its max. But I could be wrong.

So then, I guess, you could bring it along for one zone. But not really a whole lot of point to that.

Sure. Edit: But it might not be able to go the whole way (how many zones can a 1A travel?).

Love the reference. Nice touch with the different animals!

I really like the sort of chibi look you have here, with the thick squat towers. The wood section is great as well, I should keep that roof technique in mind as I have quite a few of those tan slopes! I'm actually surprised by how well the 2x2 light grey tiles work as texture; will have to remember that for next time I build a tower!

Honestly I didn't really have any kind of ship in mind when I put the masts there. I was just going with what I thought looked okay. You guys are inspiring me, though. Next time I think I'll do some research first! Thanks!

Very nice organ, the gold and silver colored pieces look really pretty! The chair looks great too! Something to keep in mind for another build - the dark tan strip around the edge is a little distracting; it would be better to have picked a color that went better with the rest of the build. Other than that, however, excellent entry!

Great building Bregir, the light grey and yellow go together really nicely! The hedge of plants is good too and way to go with adding an interior!

Another non-licensed free-build.

Another hanging! Who might it be? ...

A few days ago, Guy K. Wyndzon received a short letter from his Uncle – much to his surprise. Although he had told his Uncle to “keep in touch,” it had never occurred to him that he would! The letter ran as follows. Guy, Since you asked me, I send a letter. Am doing very poorly. Was going to do two hangings yesterday, but the court called them off. Downright aggravating!!!! Nice weather here. Etc. Your Uncle. Given, 8 Mar. “Well! Some letter that was!” Guy tossed it down with an amused grin. “Uncle doesn’t have an atom of patience in his composition! I wonder what was really behind those hangings?” and the young Secretary of State indulged in a bit of speculation. But he was far enough from the truth. In fact, this was more or less how it went: “Román Esteban Fontajo! You have been found guilty of a horrendous debt, amounting to 5 gold doubloons! Come with us, immediately!” “I’m not Román, sir. I’m his brother, Rialto Espada.” “Well, come with us anyways! You’re going to be hung!” The man’s eyes widened in shock. “But… but,” he stammered, “I’m not Román! I’m not in debt!” “Hang your excuses! And you too! Come along!” A pair of brawny young sailor stepped forward and dragged the hapless Rialto Espada Fontajo out into the street. “Next stop, the town barracks!” their leader – none other than Guy K. Wyndzon’s Uncle – ordered. The group marched along, headed by the fearsome Uncle and tailed by the still thoroughly bewildered Rialto Espada. “KolonialBeamster!” the Uncle bellowed upon arriving. “What outrageous names some people have,” he muttered under his breath. Then, raising his voice again – “Come out immediately! You have been found guilty of a horrendous debt, amounting to… to… hang the amount! Come with us, on the double!” A smiley-faced soldier stepped up and saluted smartly. “KolonialBeamter’s complements, sir! I’m one of his minions. What can I do for you today, sir?” “You can come with us and be hung!” exclaimed the irascible old Uncle. The soldier’s tiny eyes expanded alarmingly. “Ye-es, sir,” he stammered. “Come along!” the Uncle ejaculated, waving one of the sailors up. And so the minion joined the group as they headed out toward the beach, followed by curious glances from the passersby. Once at the beach, Guy’s Uncle leaned over onto his stick, glowering. “Do your business!” he commanded the sailors. Nothing loath, one of the sailors scampered up the nearby palm tree. The Uncle waited in grim silence while his victims looked around them in a half-disbelieving alarm. Suddenly footsteps were heard in the distance, and Guy’s Uncle whirled around, only to come face to face with two darkly clad messengers. “Who are you?” he roared. “I bring an important message!” the one dressed in a suit and necktie exclaimed breathlessly. “I have an important letter!” ejaculated the other, at the same time. The first one turned upon the other angrily. “I am bringing the important message, not you!” “No!” the other one retorted. “I have the important letter!” “No you don’t! I have it!” “No, you don’t! It’s right here!” “What?! It’s right here!” Both men seemed ready to come to loggerheads, when Guy’s Uncle interposed – “Where are you two from?” “From the court!” exclaimed the man with the necktie. “From the High Council!” exclaimed the other. “No, from the court!” “From the council!” But Guy’s Uncle interrupted again. “Well, give me the message, or the letter, or whatever it is!” The messenger of the necktie bowed low and, with a glare at his rival, presented a sealed missive. The other one bowed even lower, and with a prolonged scowl toward his competitor, presented a letter tied with a silken thread. Guy’s Uncle took the sealed missive first. He perused it carefully, and as he read his brow gathered thunder. “What… what… what… nonsense!!” He turned and threw the letter violently into the sea, stomping and scowling and muttering. The two messengers exchanged glances. “I hope he doesn’t serve the other letter the same way,” one muttered. The Uncle glanced at the cover of the letter tied with a silken thread. It was directed to Román Esteban Fontajo. He turned and tossed it to Rialto Espada, who caught it instinctively. “A letter for you,” he said gruffly. Rialto Espada looked at the address. “But I’m not Román!” “If you can get hung instead of him, you might as well as read his mail!” Guy’s Uncle exclaimed – and abruptly walked off! The sailors and messengers and prisoners looked at each other in bewilderment. “Perhaps it has something to do with that letter,” suggested one of the messengers, pointing to the soggy piece of paper floating a little ways out. One of the sailors instantly dashed in to retrieve it. Then the group huddled around the squelchy mess and tried to decipher it. “It says… ‘To something somethingzon’… I can’t read the next part, but then it says something like, ‘error in calintention’?” “Calculation,” the minion suggested. “‘Error in calculation,’” the messenger nodded. He continued, “then farther down, ‘our regrets… no hanging…’” “Wait… does that mean… we’re not supposed to be hung?!” the minion exclaimed. “Hurray!” “Some of us were never supposed to be hung in the first place,” Rialto Espada sniffed. He was still a little perturbed. “Well, all’s well that ends well!” the High Council messenger exclaimed joyfully. “Say! What’s that letter you have there about?” Rialto Espada tore it open and read, To the honorable Román Esteban Fontajo, Greetings from the illustrious High Council of Trade. Your services on behalf of the crown and the city of Nova Terreli have come under our notice. We are pleased to present you, or a friend of yours whom you might appoint, with the following offer of mayorship of the grand city of Nova Terreli. Your response is eagerly awaited. _________________Guy K. Wyndzon _________________Secretary of State And once more the group looked at each other in surprised amazement.

Sea Rats will need a note of legitimacy from a respected authority. (How do you get that? I have no idea. If you're interested, you might want to get the letter ready before the 25th, so you can be first in line.) Slots are granted on a first-come-first-serve basis. Clouding Blues: Low-Medium Risk. Escorted by the Dark Lighting. Designed for two (2) speed ships. Run is full. Pato Moreno, kabel - Flotilla A Aurei Lacerta, Umbra-Manis - Flotilla A Winds Beauty, LegoStone - Flotilla A Stubborn Stern, Captain Braunsfeld - Flotilla B La Transferata, Titus V - Flotilla B Dragon's Teeth: High Risk.

There, you will receive details on your route. When the MRCA form is ready, you'll be given a link. Then just follow the directions on the form and you'll be ready to go! Important! Eslandola provides escorts but does not guarantee safety! So what are you waiting for? Let the sign-ups begin! __________________Guy K.

My would-have-been entry. I'm still scratching my head on how 12:00 GMT+8 on the 10th of March can possibly be around 12:00 GMT-5 on the 9th. Ah well. The shame is that I was done in plenty of time, but I can't believe I was dumb enough to just check the rules and not bother to check the last few posts where I could have seen all Whitefang's deadline reminders! Well, now I'm off to vote!

MCTC Members: The MCTC is looking to buy another share of the Sulky; members who are willing to do so, please transfer 10 DBs to Bregir. Be sure to post below and let me know if you've done so. The MCTC will attempt to pay back your loan shortly (in two or three months). (60 DBs are needed, so that would be six 10 DB loans.)

Congratulations to all the winners!
