This event is run by Domokun, of the Sage Ocean.
Introduction
The Injury, funny thing. No matter how many 'Pieces of Eight' you have, how many ships in your fleet, or how brimming with Black/Gold Clothes your wardrobe is, you just cannot buy an Injury. That is, unless you enter Sinkfest! Vulpes Vafrae, and Captain Domokun present a 30 ship sinking events on the Sage Ocean, each giving you 30 chances to obtain an injury.
Questions?
- So, how does it work?
30 Ships, 30 Sinks. On the day of the Sinkfest Event, Vulpes Vafrae will be entering 30 War Brigs into a sinking Blockade at an Islnd on Sage Ocean. We take 29 lucky Pirates down to the deep, all in the name of fun, fish and loss of limbs. There is no need for you to join our Crew, or leave your own, all you need is to be on the ship when it sinks!
- Great! How do I get a place in the Event?
Previous Sinkfest evnts have required that you donate a War Brig and 3000poe to the Event. The donated War Brigs were sunk, and the 3000poe funded the final War Brig, Rum, Stock and other expenses. Future Sinkfest events may be run differently.
The ships will enter a blockade on a Player or Ringer controlled island, and be sunk one after the other by a waiting War Brig. All 30 players will sink 30 times, which according to this thread or this post gives between a 40-60% chance of an injury (thankies to Rexie for the Math!). In that particular event, one lucky pirate received all 3 injuries after just 16 sinks! Previous Sinkfest event pages show which pirates got which injuries.

Terms and Conditions
Please read the Terms carefully. This event involves a considerable amount of PoE and a Fleet of ships, so we have to be strict on the policies. We have tried to cover all all possible problems, but feel free to post or PM if you have a comment or a question. Please consider taking part, and making this Event a fantastic success so we may run another in the future. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or talk to me in game.
These terms may be strict, but they only apply to Pirates who wish to leave the Event. If you are confident that you will be online on 31st March, then you have nothing to worry about.
- Upon the transfer of the deed to Vulpes, it is no longer your property. We will not risk 28 pirates pulling out of this event last minute, and the event being ruined. Your 3000poe fee will be returned if you need to forfeit your place, provided you give more than a weeks notice. Any less than a week and nothing will be returned. Please do not let this put you off this event, but also please only pass your deed if you are certain you will be available for the day of the blockade. If there is another Pirate who can pass me a deed and 3000 poe then I will return your ship and poe to you, again, provided you give a weeks notice minimum. Please note there will be no partial refunds, even if you are lucky enough to receive an injury in the first sink. I will try to be conscious of everyone's needs, but the Event comes first.
- Should a place become available through the above procedure, Vulpes Vafrae reserve the right to auction, sell, distribute, or otherwise trash places in Sinkfest. Unofficial auctions or resale of places in the Event will not be supported. Anyone attempting to sell or buy places on Sink Fest in an unofficial auction will be excluded from this event. Any queries regarding this policy should be directed in a PM to me. Vulpes Vafrae will not be held responsible for disconnects.
- If you obtain an injury, and wish to try again with an alt for the remainder of the event, please inform Domokun, and we will job your alt during the event, and dismiss your main Pirate. Please note that we cannot guarantee you an injury. Please do not bother the OM's if you are unlucky. We will run this event again at a later date for a second try, provided it is a success!
- Please check through the entire event threads, as policies may change, especially while editing posts is still booched.
