Extended play message

From YPPedia

Extended play messages are displayed after a pirate has been logged in for a substantial amount of time. They pop up on the Ahoy! panel regardless of the pirate's activity.

They are also known as No pizza for you! messages due to the message given in the first implementation. There are now twelve combinations of messages:

Title texts:

  • No pizza for you! (probability 1 in 11)
  • Time to stretch! (probability 4 in 11)
  • It's been a while! (probability 4 in 11)
  • Arrr! (probability 2 in 11)

Message texts:

  • You've been playing for a long time. Consider getting up and going outside. At least get up and stretch, you'll feel better. (probability 1 in 2)
  • You've been playing for a long time. Take a break, stretch your legs, get up and walk around. Or just do a handstand and say "I love Puzzle Pirates" 10 times fast. (probability 2 in 5)
  • Are your eyes burning? What time is it? Maybe you should go for a walk, or just take a quick stretch break. (probability 1 in 10)

Trivia

The No Pizza message is a play on the /pizza command in the popular MMO Everquest.
