Found Shamus O'Mally? Post Here.
 

If you find Shamus O'Malley, post here so we might share in your good fortune :stwink:

Server, Island, and specific location appreciated.

Help me please
 

Ok ive been through out many servers and i have yet to see shamous and i want some o that gold so has anyone seen him yet i just want to know what server he is mostly on.

Find the rainbow, follow it till you get to the end. There you should find Seamus and the gold.




If your post was not intended as a St Pat's day joke, please ignore. :)

I know I want to find him too!

Obviously - you do not know about your Pirates Online News... :)

Find O'Malley and you get some gold - heres the Official Grog Blog Link

Also Folks - Lets NOT have 22 Threads on Shamus... lets all just keep the hunt in this thread please :D

I've checked several servers, Tortuga and Port Royal, and haven't found him yet.

I'd be interested also to know if anyone can locate him.

Is he only suppose to be in Port Royal? Or can he be found on any island?

I woke up obscenely early today so I spent the morning running around looking for Shamus. Tried the first 3 'A' servers cause they seemed the most likely place, and tried PR, Cuba, Tortuga and Padres, in the shops and out-of-the-way places. Never saw the man. I'm assuming he'd be on one of the more popular servers but I don't know. =/

How much money does he give you?

In both cases - no one really knows the answer (until someone finds him :D )

Now... logic would say that because Disney would want all players to be involved - chances are he'd be in PR or Tortuga (just like all the holiday quests - putting a guy on Padres - espically now with all the Big EITC in the way - havving a L2 pirate on a light sloop just wouldn't be fair ;) ). Also - in past contests, when GMs have handed out reward codes there have been numbers of 100, 500 or 1000 gold mentioned (does anyone from the GM Races in the past Toug Race have an answer?) - these might set a benchmark....

But if ya find him - be sure to post him! :D

This is just a random thought - but from 12-2 and 4-6 Pacific time the GMs are going to be in-game "celebrating in taverns and towns all over the Caribbean"...so would it be more likely that Shamus will wait until those times to make an appearance?

That is what im thinking too. From what I read this morn. on the POTCO site, he will double your gold when you say to him the following, "This is my lucky day Shamus."

Always a good idea to chek that out on the Pirates site.

:leprechaun:

Could the party be at abassa? In kings arm?

Thatch Roberts told a group on Port Royal that he was on the Barten server, Devil's Anvil.

BUT!!!

Only the 1st two who told him the phrase got gold!

He told us he was moving to Tortuga, same server. I found him in the tailor shop too late - he'd already heard the phrase from 2 there also.

He didn't give his next location, just said he'll be giving away gold all day.

Rofl 33 people viewing a thread.
Im guessing that he would be on a B server.
Edit: If some people do find him, Dont post the code he gives you until after saint pattys day if you do wanna share it

Update : last seen on savada at about 4:20 eastern time.

Location is unknown.

GM said Savada , Port Royal roaming the town. He's there now in front of Tattoo Parlor. 3:05 CST

What is the "secret phrase?" I forgot.....

"This be my lucky day Shamus!"

Ahh that's it. Thank you very much. :)

Update: He was found on savada around 1:11 Pacific time PR near tattoo shop
Savada Tortuga 1:17 PM pacific

Gotta be kidding me. If he's going to be switching not only locations, but servers too, then I have a thousand better ways to spend my afternoon.

He is on Savada server roaming Port Royal he has a founder icon above his head wearing a green coat

4:21 Port Royal Bridge - Santia

He's moving up the server list!

EDIT: Moved to Tortuga. Seems he's going up the oceans, stopping on both islands.

Any updates?
 

I would rly appreciate it, ty :sthuh:

I've lost him completely.

As have I. Maybe I'll catch him during the next Tavern event.

NOTE: There do be a large mass of people on Sabona, Port Royal, but no leprechaun (besides me) to be found.

For short legs he runs fast, no offence jack

Does anyone know what color his dot is on the compass? It might help.:stpatricksday1:

Sorry, I haven't seen him yet.

He's a tricky one:strolleyes:

Well that stinks, I like Padres the way it is.

Anyway, I logged off the game for a bit. I can go sailing for 10 minutes and get 1k gold, so it's really not worth tirelessly searching for this guy.

I don't know if that's the amount he gives, but regardless... with the time I've already wasted searching, I guarantee I could plunder twice the gold I'd get from him.

Thanks!:stgrin:

I think it's more of the principle of finding him.

I think most pirates have an ample supply of gold, it always cool to meet a GM.

Actually I just be a very unlucky leprechaun, I could use a coin or two. :stpatricksday2:

Aye, I do think it's more about the principle of finding him. But being a practical guy, and being low on gold, I'll just stick with plundering. :)

shamus is mean I found him, i said
Me: This be my lucky day!
Shamus: it be not
Shamus tps

Well i found him 1st on port royal by the tatoo parlor. Though I was late he went again and i counted to ten like he said to and ran to find him. I found him in The grave digger pit first but forgot the lucky phrase so i didnt win.:stcry:

Better luck next time. And to all GOOD LUCK!:stgrin:

Excuse me swash. But did you find him first or was he even playing yet. And does any one know where to get hints from. Heard its in a bar but what server?

That's so mean lol.

Anyway, I think there are probably multiple Shamus O'Malleys online or it would be impossible.

Got a screen shot but for got how to post it. Sorry mates.

I have concluded this. On every server in Port Royal he will be at the tatoo shop and then the through the tunnel by the gravediggers. Hope this helps!

I don't think so, I'm very inclined to think there is only one.

Attachment 1505
Aye I think this will work.... here he is on Port Royal.

How old is that picture? Mike Pirateking logged off a long time ago for me.

You forgot to say Shamus! LOL :D

I think it's like a race.. whoever finds him first type thing... =/

help?
 

Ok, im still looking.... seems like everyone else has found him.:stembarassed: Anyone got any tips or help for me?

Don't worry I still haven't found him either.... =)

I've decided to play it sneaky and sit out in one spot that I know he's shown up in before. If luck be on me side, he'll be back. :stsmiley:

Oh nice plan Jack. Though.... What if he already visited your server?

Hmmm I took the screen shot at around 4 eastern.

I've heard mention he's been on this server more than once, hoping I get lucky.

go jack, be the malley

Never found him.. but I hope they sell his coat in stores or have a quest next year.

I still havent found him and, what servers are the GM's going to be on?

GM just said hes on Barila ocean port royal

I will not rest until i find him!!

Do you think he will be around tomorrow?

I just realized the celebrations are until the 27th, not the 17th.

I dont think so. On the site it said "If you spot Shamus on St. Patricks Day..." :stcry:

any updates? this is driving me to drink!!

Heard he was on Cortilles a few minutes ago.

Found him on Cortilles... Tping away :(

i think he'll end on abassa then everyone is gonna find him at the end of the party....

Well i found him in many servers... Only in the islands Tortuga and port royal there servers were Barila, Cortilles, and the other server i dont remember

the search must continue.... ill start search the quiet A servers....

if anyone has the code, can you PM it to me?

no luck yet swash....

sorry:stsad:

If anyone knows the code, please, do tell.

It's a universal code??

positive, im pretty sure it is 99% sure im right, knowing my luck today lolz

He was not an easy man to catch up with. I found him another server but he had tp'd before I had a chance to whisper, but I finally found him on the Fragilles server in PR, which I was able to obtain 1k in gold. :smiley57: He did only give gold to the first 2 that found him.

anyone see him on test?

So does anyone know if he is still coming on today?

I believe the Grog Blog only referred to the 17th.

nope, i didn't see him at all on test

If anyone has a code, please post it here because it might be multi-use.

The purpose of finding Shamus was so we would get the code for his gold. If everyone had access to the code, then what was the point of chasing after him? The code for Shamus's gold is just that, Shamus's gold that he alone gave. Perhaps next year mate, you shall also earn your reward.

I don't believe it would matter anyway - all codes distributed up to this point have always been one-time-use codes... once the code is used it becomes marked in their database and that is it :)

so shamus keeps thousands of codes on hand? lol

That's what I was thinking.

I guess that's why he could only give out 2 or he would have to keep copying and pasting.

Talk about a wild goose chase, and a serious let down for an event. Whats the point of GM events when there is no rhyme or reason to find appearances??

Its a nice thought, but personally, its downright silly. Theres just no point to it. You could waste an entire day seeking out a GM, or Shamus, but with no method to the appearances, its like finding a needle in a Haystack. I mean, multiply the number of servers times the two island spots they were making random appearances, and then try and find someone. Good luck.

I wish Disney would put the time into upgrades we can ALL enjoy, rather than an insane scavenger hunt with little benefits to the majority of players.

This was a serious let-down.

wasn't the prize 1000 gold?

you could get that by plundering.

its 4k gold if you use it on all the characters. and how bout low levels?

I think you are missing the point - what makes it special is that not all pirates will get a chance to see Shamus - or get his gold. I agree that something we can all participate in is nice - but not everyone wins the lottery.

Its not about winning... its about an anticipated event that people can PARTICIPATE in. Im not worried about his gold - Im maxed - but it would be nice to know WHEN and WHERE the GM's will be, don't you think?

Rather than a silly advertised wild goose chase. Its not about winning, its about participating, and when you don't know where to find GMs, servers to search, or when/where to be INVOLVED, it makes it NOT fun for the majority of people in the game.

I could have cared less about the gold, but Id have liked to have seen some GM's or been able to know HOW to participate IF I wanted to.

I'll maintain - pretty bad event.

Disney was trying to do a find the Leprechaun kind of event - or so I think - and as many people that were looking for Shamus on St. Patricks day I would say that QUITE A FEW PARTICIPATED.

Telling us where Shamus was would take the fun out of it - to your comment of when and where - other GMs gave hints on where Shamus was, and lots of people found him pretty easily.

I don't think it was a great event but it wasn't as bad as stated- I saw tons of players talking about finding Shamus (I think there was only one - and a few Shamuses (or is it Shamus'?) could have better served the ton of players trying to find him). If I were Disney I would consider that mission accomplished.

Yes, this was a scavenger hunt which you are totally within your right not to enjoy - lots of other players including myself did.

But I do agree that I want to see more story quest and larger scales events that involve everyone - but I appreciate something unique like this every now and then too.

It appears that there are two seperate issues here: Where the GM's were for the general event, and where Shamus was.

In Nelly's point, the 'general' GMs should of indicated better locations on where to be found. It was not easy to locate them (they were not part of 'Shamus' and were supposed to provide general discussion). I agree with this as if it wasn't for several friends who located the occasional GM by random many would of missed them. Posting their location (such as the current event of sailing on "C" servers) should of been made more clear (or their timing be more accurate).

In Saltys point, Shams was the 'exception' GM, and his location was to be random. He obviously could not give away his location - for that was part of the adventure :D I was very unsucessful in locating him and maybe for future advice is limit the number of servers he is on during certain times (for example "B" servers between 2-3pm and "D" servers between 3-4pm

I simply wanted to find ANY GM, not so much Shamus, but I think in BOTH cases, limiting or making designated server times would be helpful, and would certainly make things enjoyable.

Not all of us want to spend an entire holiday, or day even, online seeking out a needle in a haystack event, but WOULD like to participate. If a time, or place was set to see the host GM's, it would make it more 'user friendly'.

Ill still maintain that this was a poorly thought out event for many reasons - and I was certainly disappointed, as were many it seems. No gold or Shamus needed, but FINDING a GM would have been nice.

I didnt bother chasing Shamus...my banks are full.
