1 Crew Perks and Roles

Squishat | 9:35 AM

Welcome aboard! 

So now that you've joined our fine crew, what's next?

Or maybe you're thinking of joining, and wondering to yourself,"what does this crew have to offer?"

Fear not! This post outlines the extra little perks and expected roles in Cubelets for each rank beyond what the game naturally grants.

While most of these are cases of “well, duh!”, not being explicit has caused confusion in the past.

Just better to spell everything out :)

Needless to say, all superseding ranks will include all goodies of lower ranks xD


Cabin Person

  • Ruminate on why Mg demoted you.
  • All alts will be this rank, unless you need one for Officer rank.

Pirate

  • Free use of the swords and bludgeons on the crew chart ship (Victorious Carp on Admiral).*
  • Free use of our Crew Hall on Admiral (You can set it as home, as a quiet inn).
  • Be eligible for and automatically entered into the monthly crew raffle (details in Crew Private Statement).
  • Read Crew Private Statement
  • Be included in our crew intro page (maintained by Alpha).
  • Donate towards making Cubelets even more amazing! Crew donation ship is the Wasted Whale on Admiral.(And to fund Mg's world domination). **
  • Able to have an alternate pirate in the crew as a CP. ***
  • Answer questions other crewbies poise that can't be found with a simple search (and that you know the answer to).
  • Submit and have your awesome designs published in the furnishing section of the blog.
  • Laughing at everyone's hilarious antics.

Officer

  • Read all crew-related posts on the Blog, and be fully aware of our Recruitment Policy.
  • Battle navigate in turn on our regular Brig Roulettes after reading the rules.
  • Free use of (and contribute) any charts aboard the crew chart ship (Victorious Carp on Admiral).*
  • Have an alt as an Officer in the crew (justify reasons why it's needed to a SO+).**
  • Able to add your name to the list of charters in the Private Statement, and add your stall/shoppe to the Extended Crew Info.
  • Contribute articles under your name to the Blog (be ok with Squish editing it).

Fleet Officer

  • Full access to the spare items on the chart ship (Victorious Carp on Admiral) at any time, and helping other crewbies get items from it.
  • Adding permanent members to the crew (Letting an online SO know, or leave Squish a message on Skype).
  • Join the FO chat group on Skype.
  • Able to help with Blog maintenance, should you be interested.
  • Host Brig Roulettes after sufficient experience, and a prior supervised run.
  • Conducting Officer Tests after a supervised one.

Senior Officer

  • Spontaneous wenching of crew mates.
  • Short term demotions for naughty pirates.
  • Confirm recruits, vote on/suggest promotions and generally keep things running smoothly.
  • Able to host Brig Roulettes at any time.
  • Up to 3 alts if it is needed.
  • Main guys to approach for O tests / recruitment / stuff.
  • Access to and updating the various crew lists / chats.

Captain

  • Thinking up rules for everyone to follow.
  • Ordering people to read the blog more (and working... I mean... procrastinating on the blog).
  • Putting out fires (metaphorical fires).
  • Other stuff (that no one else wants to do).

Some footnotes:

  1. * Game mechanics require you to ask a FO+ to get the charts and swords from the crew ship for you.
  2. ** When depositing PoE in the donation ship, do note to put it in the Hold instead of the Booty.
  3. *** Maximum of one alt per person allowed as a crewbie.

Hope this clears things up,
Desonn + Squishat
(and the rest of the Cubelets Team)

P.S. Originally, none of them had full-stops (periods) at the end, but the things got on my OCD so... now everything has a period. ~S
