Do not buy a doll

[Stella Ruby]

I don't think it's the doll anymore.
I made two pirates yesterday, on the first I didn't buy a doll and didn't take any quests for gold, only quests that advanced my pirate. That toon is able to go through doors and ocmplete tasks.

The second pirate I again did only tasks for advancing, none just for gold (not even Short Stack Sam) but this one I purchased a doll for. She is also able to go through doors and complete tasks.

After this pirate did fine with her doll I purchased a doll for the first pirate, she's further ahead in her tasks and she's still going through doors and completing quests.

So I think the issue is with the quests we pick up from townspeople and commoners, maybe even Short Stack. My first couple of toons carried a bunch of quests for gold because, well, they're pirates and they like gold.

I still can't get points for sailing. What have you done to get those points? I'm not able to fire my broadsides, is there a trick to it I just don't know about?
