In a world where many such places have a lifespan of a handful of months, we have survived one year already, and six full months in our story (January - June 1719). The August (anniversary) issue of the "Histories and Chronicles of the West Indies" is on! It has new gossips and contests, and it also highlights the site's achievements during this year.

Up to now, we have written 169 threads, out of which 129 are already completed and 19 are ongoing. It is remarkable that we have only 12.5% unfinished (abandoned) threads in one year of activity.

We have now 13 active members, with 23 male active characters and 11 female, as follows:

Pirates = 7
Privateers = 4
English Navy = 6
French Navy = 5
Civilians = 12

We have also a youtube movie. Join us and next time your characters will be featured too!

Our Anniversary Chronicles are up, with not only gossips and news, but also with the tops of the year, and with announcing the winners of the contests we had for two months. The best birthday gifts for our second anniversary were a youtube movie featuring our most important threads and the involved characters and… four new members applying the day of the anniversary.

Our pirates are going to get a new ship, we have Michaelmas Feast ongoing in Kingston, for everybody to take part in, in Saint Domingue the governors are changing… Join us and make your mark on the Caribbeans’ history!


The September issue of the monthly "Histories and Chronicles of the West Indies" is up too, with news, gossips, interviews and spotlights!

We are also looking for a new moderator. Anyone to fill the roster?
