Race Day, Q&A!
How is this going to work? Each crew is paired with a rival, fighting for the island’s token. See
this post for more detailed information. In order to determine who gets the token, crews will play the maze game
here, screenshot the fastest time, and e-mail it to the mods. More details will be given out in the first maze announcement after the race starts, but please note that each crew may only send in
one screenshot per token! Play amongst yourselves to find your best time and then e-mail us. The rival with the fastest time wins the token for that island.
There will be one maze a week and all results must be turned in by 11:59PM EST on that particular Saturday. Crews that do not turn anything in will forfeit the token. If both crews forfeit, the token will become free range, first claim, first served.
On the final days, we’ll have another competition between the six remaining crews to see who ultimately wins the race.
Can I steal another crew’s token? You can certainly ask the other crew if you can, but whether or not you are able to steal the token is up to them.
Do we have to visit the islands in order? Can our crew go to a different island than the rival crew with a chance at the token? You may, but the token games are going to be in order. In other words, even if you are at island B in the first week, the game will still be for the token located at island A.
What’s the deal with the NPC crews? The NPC crews are to use as you like and do whatever you wish with. However, if you end up destroying the crew/killing the captain, please inform the mods just for information’s sake.
How can we travel across the world with these sailing times? The Great Ghost Race is a chaotic time in terms of currents and winds as Davy Jones stirs underneath the waves. In ooc terms: the sailing times can be hand waved shorter or longer depending on preference/convenience.
Can I kick the Corpse King’s ass? Because we have an uneven amount of crews participating, the Corpse King is a special character. While an NPC, he still needs to be around so a mod can use him to participate in the maze game. You are welcome to come try and thrash him and if you or your crew is interested in doing so, please send a private plurk to our event mod at
handsoplenty.

That is it insofar as information and rules. Should you have any questions, feel free to ask. Most importantly, remember, communication is key to a great game!
