Happy Birthday Month, Pirate101! Here's to a great year of piracy and trickery! I'll sing a song! Happy Birthday to you, happy Birthday to you, happy birthday dear Pirate101, happy birthday to you! YAY! Now, allow me to reminisce on the past year. Ahem, Pirate101 launched Monday, October, 8, 2012. Two months later Pirate101 released PvP in its test form on December 11, 2012 along with 1500 bug fixes and housing items were added as drops. On January 17, 2013 the Tribal Crew pack was added to the Crown Shop. On February 28, 2013, better companion and power management was added along with Cool Ranch Housing Vendors and Skyway Bosses. On March 27, 2013, Eloise MerryWeather came to Pirate101 along with Stitching. On May 23, 2013, Books XIII and XIV were introduced to the storyline and with them came Marleybone, Aquila, new companions and promotions, the Skull Island Bazaar, a new tutorial, and much, much more updates. On July 17, 2013, Gifting, Class Houses, Class Furniture and other items and NPC's were added to Pirate101. On August 30, 2013, Henchmen were added to the game, and what a big help they've been! And lastly, on September 18, 2013, Pirate101 was able to be downloaded and played on the Macintosh. And lets not forget the awards Pirate101 was won. Pirate101 got the RTSGuru Best of E3 - Best Hybrid Strategy before it launched and the MMORPG Player's Choice Awards - Game of the Year in December of 2012. It has been a great first year Pirate101 and KingsIsle and I hope to experience many more like it! Happy Birthday and here's to Pirate101's Second Birthday!

Happy birthday to you, you live in Skull mountain, I can't find anything to rhyme with mountain, so uh, you all look like Troggies, and you act like (more docile) them too! Best birthday song ever, am I right? XD

Wonderful way to put it, Coolster. I expect Jack, Mew, and the others have some lovely surprises for us to celebrate the wonderful birthday of this wonderful game.

Ciao!

My best birthday blessings are given out to the whole KingsIsle Pirates team. You guys have been working your tushies off for well over this year and you deserve a great party. Well done guys & gals. VERY well done.
The happiest of birthdays to you all. May it be filled with enough blessings & giggles to keep your giggle muscles buff all year long.

Happy early birthday to Pirate101!

What should we consider the "Official" birthday?

The "pre-opening" on 10/8 for us beta testers, and pre-purchased bundle players, or the Official Public grand opening on 10/15?

Probably the 15th... Just curious what others thought.
