How can ya defeat 19252 enemies in one day?!!!

On the leaderboard topic, I truly don't expect myself or the ETC to ever hit #1 - but it's the chase that motivates the members to work together for a common cause.

Our own site, I list the Top 5 Killers and Sinkers almost daily and go out of my way to mention those who normally DON'T hit the list but sometimes make extra efforts.

And they enjoy comparing, and any special attention - but I give praise to my guildies who lend aid or come running when help is needed to. You're right - numbers are not the bottom line - but they help some pirates WANT to be here.

As for Eliza, I still have the long term goal of getting her into the Top 100 All-Time for Kills and Sinks - otherwise I'd never play her. A quest like that gives me reason to keep her coming back until something new comes along.

I have a similar goal while waiting for new content, although a much more modest goal, getting my main pirate Jason into the Top 1000 All-Time for Kills and Sinks. I'm getting close, I'm in the Top 1500 or thereabouts right now.

The top of the leaderboards - never for me, I get nowhere near enough online time to even think about that, and I've always come by my kills and sinks the old fashioned way, I've earned them. I'm not going to stoop to AFK'ing on a friend or guildmates ship to pad my stats.
