The Ironrat Cup

[Edward Edgemenace]

That was FUN. It was almost more fun being the "official" for the second race, jumping from boat to boat. It would be way cool with two officials (one to park boat at DA, one to boat-hop) but it makes more sense to let more people race. (It is a nice custom, to have the winner of each race be the official for the next race.)

The third race was the closest of all. Davy Redflint and I traded the lead about five times. Just holding to my route, taking only pot-shots worked great. When I tried it in Swashbuckler II's war galleon, it almost worked. If Swashbuckler II had been back in time to click BOARD, I probably would have gotten three (or more) from that Man-o-war, to get full cargo. (No bets on how long the officers would have taken!)

So, we are doing this again next week? Same time? One hour later? Earlier? The first race being open to all boat classes was cool. But the war galleon race and the war sloop races were more exciting - being so much closer. Who is making the map for next week?
