Blockade history

Viridis I: 2005-07-30, Euphoria won the first blockade of Viridis in three rounds. Scuppering Seven Seas also contended, but they could not muster enough points to win either of the first two rounds. They did not contest round 3.

Viridis II: 2005-08-28, Dreaded Dream Makers easily took control of Viridis in a largely uncontested three-round blockade while Euphoria was occupied trying to maintain control of Terra in Terra III.

Viridis III: 2005-09-03, Dreaded Dream Makers was successful in their first defense of the island in a non-sinking blockade that lasted 4 rounds. They were able to fend off Infierno De los Diablos, only allowing the much bigger flag to win one round of the blockade.

Viridis IV: 2005-10-22, Dreaded Dream Makers again successfully defended the island. This time, they defeated Nascita dei Leoni Rossi in a three-round sinking blockade.

Viridis V: 2005-11-13, In another three-round sinking blockade, Ebrius Feles took the island from Dreaded Dream Makers.

Viridis VI: 2005-11-20, Equilibrium took the island from Ebrius Feles in a 3-1 non-sinking blockade. The Borg also contended, but did not win any rounds.

Viridis VII: 2005-11-27, The Borg took the island from Equilibrium in a 3-0 non-sinking blockade.

Viridis VIII: 2005-12-03, Shadow Company took the island from The Borg in a 3-2 sinking blockade. Shadow Company lost the first two rounds losing many ships. Pay for Play then entered the battle as allies of Shadow Company and had the next three rounds sinking The Borg ships while guarding the Shadow Company ships to ensure their victory.

Viridis IX: 2006-01-28, Shadow Company successfully defended the island in a non-sinking blockade that lasted 4 rounds. They defeated both Serpientes Del Mar and Nations Alliance ceding only one round to Serpientes Del Mar.

Viridis X: 2006-03-04, Serpientes Del Mar, in a non-sinking blockade, successfully blockaded the island in three rounds. This was SdM's second blockade, and its first successful one.

Viridis XI: 2006-05-28, Beat to Quarters, in their first ever participation in a blockade, dropped a surprise war chest at the eleventh hour to join in the Sdm VS Armageddon fight. Beat to Quarters won with a 3-1 victory.

Viridis XII:2006-06-04, Serpientes Del Mar following their very successful war, dropped on Viridis for the sole purpose of sinking BtQ ships, so that allies New World Order would be able to take it the next week. But, Beat to Quarters didn't show for their defense and SdM took the island with a 3-0 victory.

Viridis XIII:2006-06-11, Serpientes Del Mar transfers Viridis to New World Order through an uncontested practice blockade.

Viridis XVIII:2007-02-04, Dragon Lords' blockade was notable not for the fierceness of the contest but for the remarkable feats of diplomacy that brought personal friends and allies of the flag's monarch together despite some notably bitter enemies among them. Dragon Lords, having already purchased the island from New World Order, blockaded the island to complete the transfer amid rumors that The Dark Jungle had plans to blockade. After a week of threats and posturing The Dark Jungle's leaders realized the breadth of Dragon Lords' backing and declined to blockade, however Subtle Tease did drop a war chest at the last minute and New World Order quickly reciprocated the war declaration to make the blockade sinking. Subtle Tease sent ships in rounds 1 and 2 but did not contest round three. In the end Dragon Lords won all three rounds of this blockade and made Viridis the first island to be blockaded eighteen times, the most across any ocean.
