Hit The Deck! (Net Toss)
Kijustsu Anei Keys
Sunday, June 13, 2010
 
The Fishing Council of Britannia and Kijustsu Anei Keys hosted the bi-weekly net toss this past Sunday. Twenty-five green nets and Two white fabled nets were thrown this week. One lucky participant had a special item drop from one of the Leviathans. The event was made to gather people for a "Hack and Slash" before the weekly Hall of Commons meeting on Sunday at 9:00pm EST. If you wish to partake in this Net Toss just show up to the Pier at 8:15pm and be ready to take on the sea creatures at 8:30pm. You just might be lucky enough to get a Ghost Ship Anchor or Seahorse drop! Gates will open from the Pier to the Hall of Common at 8:50pm.

Thank you to everyone who made this event possible

Historic Net Toss Saturday!!!
Great LakesThe Great Lakes crew is proud to announce that Saturday night (May 22) at 8:00 p.m. EST at the Buccaneer's Den docks we will hold a HISTORIC net toss.

ONE THOUSAND nets will be tossed!

The nets are donated by our great friends at the Majestic Oaks Auction House (MOA) and our Chicken Fight Club (CFC) friends will be lending a hand as well!

The rules are simple. No pets. No summoned creatures. No barding. Just hand to hand, archery, and magecraft.  You keep the loot.

Free rezzes at the end of the dock. (You'll need them.)

If you've never been to one, a net toss is a blast, and this one will be historic!

Some Improvements Coming
FCB General NewsUO Producer Calvin Crowner mentioned this in his recent post about upcoming UO changes:

The ability for boats to plot courses on Treasure maps … (oh and I might as well tell you now we are targeting a major update to treasure maps for the middle of this Summer).

It's small, but it some improvement for sea-farers.

Great News for Legends
LegendsAhoy!

My name is Charity and I'm the new Fleet Captain of the Fishing Council of Britannia (FCB) - Legends Fleet. I have been a member of the FCB on Legends since 2004. When our previous captain, Zippo, decided to retire, we discussed my taking over the fleet to try and keep us afloat. Sadly, do to a mail ship lost at sea, our messages were never received before his departure. After over a years time, word finally got through to Gem who immediately responded with joy upon hearing my requests. I asked that the Legends fleet not be forgotten, that we were still here and have just been floating by waiting and hoping someone would finally get our messages.

I know that this will be difficult, as Legends is a small shard of our great lands, but I promise that I will make sure the community here still knows we exist and what the FCB is all about. With any luck, surviving members will help me do this task. I hope that one day our crew will grow and return to the familiar atmosphere of family and friendship we once had.
