This island is named for Louis Armstrong.

Blockades

In September 2008, Brynhild Skullsplitter took control of the island as part of its opening for colonization.

Armstrong I, 2008-09-20: Coerced Coexistence successfully defeated the Brigand King flag Ice Wyrm's Brood in a three-round sinking blockade to colonize the island.

Armstrong II, 2008-11-16: Coerced Coexistence successfully defended Armstrong from Beyond the veil in a three-round sinking blockade. This blockade occurred at midnight, game time.

Armstrong III, 2008-11-22: Coerced Coexistence successfully defended Armstrong from Beyond the veil in a three-round sinking blockade. It was argued bitterly that Beyond the veil was attacking Armstrong for personal reasons.

Armstrong IV, 2008-11-30: Coerced Coexistence successfully defended Armstrong from Beyond the veil in a three-round sinking blockade. This blockade was scheduled to occur at midnight, game time.

Armstrong V, 2008-12-07: Coerced Coexistence successfully defended Armstrong from Beyond the veil in a three-round sinking blockade.

Armstrong VI, 2008-12-13: Coerced Coexistence successfully defended Armstrong from Beyond the veil in a three-round sinking blockade. This blockade marked the fifth weekend in a row Beyond the veil had attempted to take over Armstrong.

Armstrong VII, 2008-12-20: Coerced Coexistence successfully defended Armstrong from Beyond the veil in a three-round sinking blockade. While not specifically against the rules, various forum members argued that any more attacks by Beyond the veil would be going against the "spirit of the game" as the last few blockades were not well contended by Beyond the veil. [1]

Armstrong VIII, 2010-02-20: Illusion successfully defeated the flag Happy Ending in a 3 round non-sinking blockade to take control of Armstrong.

Armstrong IX, 2010-08-07: The Enlightened took over Armstrong in a 5 round sinking blockade. The Enlightened won in 3 rounds because Seas the Day did not contend.
