It was an amazing flurry of feathers on Saturday in Pirate101 as thousands of players descended into the reaches of Skull Island in the quest for four simple housing luxuries:
• Embroidered Royal Pillow
• Royal Throw Pillow
• Embroidered Elegant Throw Pillow
• Embroidered Regal Pillow
It was a royal rumble in our first ever KingsIsle sponsored Pillow Fight!
In total, 8046 pillows were acquired by players during the day! Who knew our troggies and cutthroats had such a big stash of treasure? Harvey Deuce, proprietor of the Skull Island Bazaar, is rumored to have filled several empty houses full with this resulting over-stuffed stock!
Check out these crazy statistics we discovered from your time spent farming pillows:
• The first pillow was found 9 seconds after midnight central time.
• The last pillow was picked up at 23:59:27, with 33 seconds to spare
• Pillows were almost without fail 25% of each type. This was mostly the same ratio for the top 10 players as well, so it seems like one pillow doesn’t really drop more than any other.
Though thousands participated, there were a few brave souls who came out on top of this pillow war victorious. Our grand prize winner, with 115 pillows is (drum roll please) . . .
1. Two-faced Anne
When reached for comment, Two-faced Anne told us her main strategy was to scout out a place to farm before the event. Her main target of interest was the Troggy Chief in the Dark Jungle.
Two-faced Anne also wanted to give a special thank you to her friends “Clumsy Calamity” who she called “a great motivator,” and “Perilous Paige” for “all the luck she brought me when it was most needed.”
Congratulations on winning your prize of 60k Crowns . . . and the bragging rights of being Queen of the Hill in our First Ever Pillow Fight in Pirate101!
