I didn't actually plan on playing Pirates for three whole hours, but I made the spontaneous decision of completing the Father's Day quest yesterday. I sunk the final ship, and immediately I got the reward. I panicked a little and teleported to Padres, and went to Timothy. I leveled my staff there for a while until...
That was quite good, because I hate staff more than I hate grenades. I switched to dagger and leveled at Timothy some more, until I had this...
Which made me feel quite happy with myself. I got bored of dagger (I don't like that weapon either), so I decided to go sailing. I switched to Abassa and things started to slow down. And that wasn't good, because I had about an hour left. I went to the shipwright on Padres to repair my ship, and I kept clicking the button but my ship wouldn't get repaired. So I went to Tortuga instead. I dodged the spammers, and my repairing worked. I set out on my ship, and put it on public. Nobody came, so I decided to level by myself. I had barely got a scratch on my ship, after filling my cargo hold, so I continued leveling. Then someone appeared, and soon there were about five people in my crew. I kept sailing with them, and just as we were about to dock...
My luck started to go downhill after that. I set out on my ship again, and got very very bashed up. Then when I docked at Padres... my game crashed. I got a bit sad because I thought I'd lost my bonus. But when I logged back on I still had about half an hour left. So I went to El Sudoron and fought until my reward ran out.
Three level ups in a day made me pretty proud of myself, so that's why I posted it on here.
On another thread Davy said that I might master this summer, and I doubted it at the time. But with Jack's Brew still in my inventory, and four more things to master (potions, dagger, sailing, notoriety), I think Davy could be right...
