History
The Cranberry Island monument is just northwest of the island's default entrance portal, clearly visible on the minimap.
Cranberry I — 2004-09-11, Tyr's Own attempted the first blockade of Cranberry on behalf of Quixaroo, the former Azure governor of Cranberry. Facing a large defense from Silver Dawn and its allies, Tyr's Own only won the seventh round. Contender Trans-Atlantic Empire also only won one round, but tried again in a week.
Cranbery II — 2004-09-18, The Ruby Ring gained an unofficial new flag, Trans-Atlantic Empire. Assisting this flag heavily, TAE won the blockade in seven rounds. Tyr's Own contended after dropping a war chest in round four.
Cranbery III — 2004-10-02, While an epic blockade took place at Islay of Luthien, Robertdonald's alt flag Trans-Pacific Empire attempted to distract manpower from Carpe Noctem, one of three contenders at Luthien. After six rounds, the score was 3-3, but Luthien had recently finished. Facing a massive defense, Trans-Pacific Empire lost the next three rounds.
Cranbery IV — 2004-10-19, Sea the Constellation was a flag formed from the crew They Might Be Pirates, who had been expelled from Trans-Atlantic Empire. Aided by Robertdonald, the flag contended the first round, but dropped out to plan the next Cranberry blockade in round two.
Cranberry V — 2004-10-22, Cranberry became the first island to be blockaded five times; Cranberry V was contended by the alt flag DOOFIS in support of They Might Be Pirates. Tired of endless blockades, Trans-Atlantic Empire paid They Might Be Pirates and gave them a distillery shoppe, ending the disagreement.
Cranberry VI — 2006-07-23, Trans-Atlantic Empire successfully defended the island from contenders, Notorious Fandango.
Cranberry VII — 2007-07-29, Blighted successfully captured the island from defenders, Trans-Atlantic Empire.
Cranberry VIII — 2008-02-03, Black Veil, the flag of The Widow Queen (a Brigand King), captured the island from defenders, Blighted. Black Veil attacked after Blighted scuttled their fleet at sea, but then Blighted did not contest the blockade.
Cranberry IX — 2008-02-09, Trans-Atlantic Empire successfully re-captured the island from Black Veil.
