Buildings

The naming scheme has been famous sayings, except the palace, whose name was created before a theme was decided upon. The Inn was also dusted, rebuilt, and named after a pirate that did so much for Moonlighting's success as well as for the island.

History

The Namath Island monument is located just southeast of the palace.

Namath I — 2005-07-23, Moonlighting won Namath in three rounds. Crimson Tide had dropped a chest, but only contested the first round.

Mordrid ruled over the island of Namath at the beginning. He watched as the fort, distillery bazaar, iron monger bazaar, and apothecary bazaar rose on the island. But at last time constraints were overbearing and he stepped down as governor to let Zife take over. Over Zife's rule on the island the rest of the government buildings were built along with a shoppe of each kind. But after a long rule on Namath he decided he needed a change and left the flag and crew. With that Mordrid, with time constraints gone came back to rule Namath once again.

Namath fell under the control of Riot after an island transfer proposed by Moonlighting. They won an event racing across the ocean.
