For those who crash "white box" from this quest....

[BriarRosie]

I know this is a little bit of "too little too late", but for those who can do this quest today, I have advice given to me when I was crashing every time I'd try to enter the Pirate game:

Be sure that you start "fresh". Load the shirt button with your avatar's clothing. Load the chair button and click each tab of inventory. Thanks to friends who suggested that.

After I started doing that, my crashing occurred MUCH less frequently, and I was able to stay in many games. We would also refresh our computers after each round, and meet in a friend's guest room.

After we would "load" the clothes and inventory, we had a designated Pirate lobby instance to meet at, and the player we would help would say, "Ok, go there now!" and we'd often be able to get our group together.

I hope this helps the "last minute" quest finishers.

Also, here's a tip for pirates:

Kill the last person with gold. Make sure the gold is on the FAR LEFT (when looking at cannon health on your screen. Waste regular shots to get the gold where you want, and pull alongside the other player you want to "gold" to make sure you take all their credits.

one more tip for the white box...
if you get it entering the pirates game DONT click ok
you are still in there and your friends can still kill you for points
If they kill you before kraken gets you, you advance to the next round(s)
Just type that you crashed in the room.
you cant see it but they can.

Offloading all of my inventory into rooms and onto clones helped me A LOT! You might try that, too!

Another tip to avoid crashing is to ignore everyone in the Pirates lobby except your team members. It has helped me a lot this weekend!

And probably helped with anger, not that there have been any rude players in the pirates lobby in the past few days
