Greetings, Pirates and Lubbers alike!

The pirate who guessed the closest this week was found amongst an ocean of great guesses.

The actual number was:

@Tim-Static

Congratulations me matey, you'll be receiving your prizes soon!
Remember to keep an eye out for a direct message on the forums :D

Thanks to everyone who took part, there were some very good guesses!
That be the last Guess for Gold for 2019, but I’m sure we’ll be back in the New Year with more stats and more loot!
Thank you to everyone to entered and Merry Christmas to you all!

thanks that's a lot of grog

Congratulations to the winner.

A statistic question i'd like to see is:
How may players have logged on set sail from port only to get instant Kraken followed by Skelli Ship and or Meg/Don which results in them quitting and never loading up the game again?

Surely that's a statistic Rare can see right. No malicious intent here just a curious question that's bugged me for a year or so now.

That actually happened to me once and I have a funny story behind it. My brother, friend and I set out on a fresh spawned brigantine after we looted the outpost. We got krakened and tried to kill it. A sloop pulls in and attacked us. They believed we stole their treasure and wanted revenge. Once they realized we weren’t the ones responsible for their loss, they stopped attacking us and said they wanted to help us kill the kraken. We killed them and sunk them because they attacked us and then we turned our attention to the kraken. Unfortunately for us, the kraken fled before we could kill it.

My crew are peaceful unless provoked. Unfortunately for us, we lost the kraken defending ourselves. lol

@coffeelight5545 I get a tandem of what i've come to call "instant PvE encounters" at least twice a week and have done for the last year of play.
I'm hardly ever salty about it mind you as sometimes it's jut how the dice fall (Warhammer 30/40k player here
who knows all too well the fate of bad dice).

True enough though the story's that can be told and remembered from such encounters always provide a good giggle either at myself or at those other poor souls who find themselves prey to the scatter dice.
