Revision as of 14:42, 16 December 2007
You hand the Meat over to the navigator, who hands it over to the quartermaster, who hands it over to an accounts payable rep, who hands it over to the grog purchasing agent, the food acquisition specialist, and the convenience store clerk, and soon the ship is fully outfitted for a voyage.

The navigator squints at you and asks "That's that, then. To what coordinates would you like to sail in search of booty, Cap'm?"
- Longitude: (1-242)
- Latitude: (1-100)
Set Sail! |
Results
"Aye aye, Cap'm!" says the navigator, and there is a bustle of activity as the ship leaves port -- sails are unfurled, masts are hoisted, pulleys are winched, all that kind of shippy stuff. Pretty soon, you've lost sight of land, and open sea lies... um... open before you as you sail towards your destination.

Plinth (63,29)

With strange stone sphere in inventory
You arrive at a strange, perfectly round island, with a weird looking stone plinth in the center of it. The plinth is carved with a bunch of shallow channels, through which pulse a bunch of blue lights. There's a circular depression at the top of it, almost exactly the same size as the strange stone sphere you dredged up earlier.
You place the sphere into the depression, and it immediately vanishes, seeming to sink into the plinth. A humming sounds emanates from below the ground, as if some piece of ancient machinery had suddenly sprung back to life. Perhaps that's because deep below the ground, some piece of ancient machinery has suddenly sprung back to life.
(strange stone sphere is consumed)
Without strange stone sphere in inventory
You arrive at a strange, perfectly round island, with a weird looking stone plinth in the center of it. The plinth is carved with a bunch of shallow channels, through which pulse a bunch of blue lights. There's a circular depression at the top of it, but you don't have anything to shove into it, so you shove off, instead.
Mainland (see below)
The navigator says "Sorry, Cap'm, but we can't sail to those coordinates, because that's where the mainland is, and we've pretty much plundered the mainland dry. Perhaps a more exotic locale is in order?"
Coordinates
- Coordinates where small tropical islands originally bore strange tiki idols (and sinister altar fragments to all subsequent visitors): (34,79), (38,70), (40,81), (41,90), (47,74), (47,83), (47,91), (51,79), (54,93), (59,75), (62,89), (63,81), (68,88), (69,77), (69,94), (70,86), (73,81), (73,88), (77,74), (79,93), (82,83), (86,72), (89,92), (90,79), (94,86), (97,81), (98,94), (100,81), (104,76), (104,85), (107,79), (110,73), (113,94), (116,74), (119,95), (120,88), (121,82), (125,97), (127,90), (129,83).
- Coordinates that produced rainbow pearls (and shimmering rainbow sand to all subsequent visitors): (124,31), (134,30), (144,29), (154,28), (164,27), (172,19), (174,26), (176,33), (178,22), (180,29), (184,25).
Notes
- Occurs during O Cap'm, My Cap'm
- Exploration of the map is in progress. See the talk page.
- Choosing invalid coordinates results in the following message:
- The navigator sighs. "Those aren't valid coordinates, Cap'm. Care to try again?"
- The Kingdom of Loathing is present on this map, largely occupying an 11x11 region beginning at the coordinates (11,11). Several coordinates in this region contain ocean, resulting in the area resembling that portrayed on the Main Map.
- Jick on the 12/10/07 Radio Show confirmed that only the first person to each island got the "Special Prize"
- There are eleven shimmering rainbow sand coordinates.
References
- The name of the adventure is similar to "Set an open course for the virgin sea", a lyric from the song "Come Sail Away" by Styx.
- The treasure-crane is probably based on the identical device in the GameCube game The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
- The Rainbow Pearl locations form an arrow on a map, likely a reference to the 'Rainbow Worlds' of Star Control II. These were left by an advanced race for future beings to be able to find them should the need arise, as well as being convenient toxic waste dumps.
Other Resources
- Two sites have been set up to map the ocean - one by Gemelli (Well, I Think It's Booty), and one by Quietust (Pirate Map Tracker).
