Happy Holidays! Whether you're celebrating Festivus, Christmas, Hanukkah, Chrismukkah, or Kwanza, our last release of 2022 will be fun for the whole family. The team will be taking some much needed time off between Christmas and New Years so we can come back fully recharged in 2023 to continue building out the Pirate Nation universe. We also decided to leave you with a little holiday gift on the island.
Game
We left you a little present to end the year with. We hope you like it!
Poke your little pirate and see what happens.
Your Pirate now gets a hangover if you drink too much. Be careful with how you use your Rum because you aren’t a young buck anymore.
Our devs learned math and now all loot bags add up to 100%
Poor/Common confetti are no longer depressing grayscale downers. Sorry about that.
Quests no longer appear locked due to lack of Energy if the player uses Rum and then loads the Quests screen.
Energy meter now updates more quickly when Rum is used.
When you go up a level, you will be given accurate information about how much energy you will gain. Previously it was defaulted to +1.
Slight adjustments made to the order of Quests for those who care about things like numerical order.
Lots of call optimizations and other under the hood tuning to make things zippier.
Find the Lost Isle of Gold quest now shows correct earnings in the reward screen.
Web
The leaderboard rewards will be limited to the Top 10 Pirate Gold minters and will be calculated on a per pirate, versus per wallet, basis to level the playing field.
Want to be selfish on the Activity tab? Now you can view “Only me.”
Changed Pirate Nation name on Twitter to remove ALL CLAIMED. The Twitter Blue checkmark will restore itself shortly once Elon manually approves it.
Added a little flair to Rainbow Wallet connect.
Properly indexing the page on Google now. SEO FTW!

We’ve elevated a few community members to First Mates. Congrats to: RoninNupe, Datboy, 4kLouie, Ascribs, paul.jwh, Xenos, 1984, aChrisWalter. They have been supremely helpful and we’re deeply grateful for their support. If you see them around, ask them about all the Cabin Pal’s getting free mints!
Did somebody say Dune Dashboard? You didn’t? Well, if you’re curious about holders, Pirate stats, and PGLD mint/burn info, check out our new WIP Dune dashboard. It’ll continue to improve over time.
Re-arranged categories in Discord for better flow.
