2008 - Thank You For a Wonderful Year!'''
It's been an amazing year - not only did we celebrate our one-year anniversary but we added many great new features to the game - like Privateering. We also saw powerful new weapons, powerful new enemies and other additions come to the Caribbean like Jolly's Curse, Gm Meet & Greets and more!
We're just getting started but we've got so much more on the way. In 2009, you'll see a whole new dimension of fun... and danger! We'd like to take a moment and thank you for joining us on the adventure and look forward to sailing with you in the new year!
