Get the treasure!

Yo ho, Yo ho a pirate’s live for me!

A nearly forgotten legend tells about an unmeasureable treasure hidden somewhere in the GUN-South-Sea (217.172.179.242:14567). After several failed attempts, new ships will fight the open sea to get that treasure. But the captains still searching for some seaworthy guys to work on their ships. The ships will set to sea on the 29th of October at 19:00 CET (13:00 EST). There will also be a cabin share your sailor’s yarn (TS: 217.172.179.242). So take your cutlass and pistol and join us in the harbor. And don’t forget your beer mug, so we can have a big party afterwards.

Yo ho, Yo ho a pirate’s live for me!

Yeah....still don't have anything but the Secret Weapons disc.

By the way, by 13:00 EST do you really mean 13:00 EDT? We're on Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4) until November, which is +1 hour over Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5).

But if you're not on any kind of daylight savings and are applying normal timezone differences, then it might actually be 14:00 EDT, so the 13:00 would confuse people.

It's probably best to give times in UTC.

Ok, last time GMT also confused many people, so i tried it this time like this. Ok it will start at 17:00 UTC/GMT, 13:00 EDT or 12:00 EST. I hope i got this right. Thx for the hint.

Tomorrow the event will finally take place.

So check the time once again 19:00 CET.

Also make sure you downloaded both BFP1 and the Anniversary-Mappack. If you are not sure about the mappack, just check for maps without "bfp" in the mapname, like blasted_shores, cave_raid and rum_runner_temple.

If there are any questions, just ask here or send me a pm. You can also join our TS3 (217.172.179.242) before the events starts. I will be around at least one hour before start.

Have fun.

additional note: If you saw this too late and the event is already over, dont worry, the server will run with pirates at least the whole next day (sunday). So there will be a second chance to join on sunday.
