Hello, this is Captain Celestia Ludenberg of The Antoinette. For those of you who hadn't paid attention to the conversation Kaito-kun and myself had regarding "Scurvey Dog", allow me to explain. Thanks to the recent string of wasted questions we've dealt with as of late, I've decided that in order to ensure we do not waste yet another question, we should take a vote each week to decide what question gets asked and what person gets to ask it. Do keep in mind that both are important, as even the best question can be useless if the person asking it cannot speak clearly.

Originally I had planned to post this earlier, but due to the massive storm that hit our ship I had more important issues to deal with. We're all alright, for those who are curious. A bit shook up, but nothing major.

Regardless, onto the main point of this message. I myself will not be collecting the votes. Rather, I will be collecting the questions that each of you want answered, as well as the names of any volunteers who wish to ask Scurvey Dog the question we choose. Kaito-kun will be taking care of the actual voting, so look out for his post in a few days time.

So far, I have these questions collected:

1) ~~What is the hard way of getting back home?~~
2) Why does Davy Jones want the ruby?
3A) Since we use the ruby to wish ourselves home, does that wish count for all of us or just the person who completes the ruby?
3B) If it counts for everyone, can those who prefer to stay here do so?
4) Which Nation does the navy hail from?
5) How the local sailors navigate by night?
6) What has been down to our bodies and powers?"
7) What kinds of weapons and tools does the navy possess?"
8) What information does the navy have on us?"

And that's it. I will update the list as time goes on. As for the people who wish to ask him the question, they are as follows:

1) Myself, Celestia Ludenberg
2) Kuroba Kaito

Along with the questions list, I will be updating this list as well. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here. I will answer them to the best of my ability; that is all.

Not once did I ever say we can stop idiots from posting before the designated person can. However, if someone interrupts the designated person enough times and we start to get annoyed, which we will, I'd like to think those people would come to regret their actions soon enough. The canons on our ships aren't just for show, after all. Push anyone enough times and they'll start to use them.

Or maybe the idiot's captain will simply throw them overboard and save us all the trouble. I can't say I care one way or the other, so long as the person or persons are dealt with.

As for your questions, I will be adding them to this list. However, I'd like to make sure I get the formatting down properly. They are as follows:

"What has been down to our bodies and powers?"
"What kinds of weapons and tools does the navy possess?"
"What information does the navy have on us?"

Is the wording alright?

True enough. But what if that's what that dog is aiming for? With such "inflexible" rules and will to take as legit questions anything he wants to, don't you think it's probable that what he wants is precisely to have us fight among us for more than just the shards?

The wording is alright, yes. Assuming he really is going to give useful answers I don't see how he could misunderstand the questions or anything.

Perhaps. Which is exactly why people should submit questions and vote. We should work together, at least in this regard, to gather more information. Letting whoever is fastest ask the question has not only given us bad answers, but has also driven us apart further.

Noted. I will edit the list accordingly.

I suppose that with this system even if the dog doesn't give us answers no one can exactly get angry with the others. At least in theory. Let's hope the system works, then.

Exactly. It's not a perfect system, but at least there's a chance that it can get us answers and lower tension.

I would say it's more about the tension than the answers what it can do, but we will see.

It's all we can do at the moment. Though I'm sure things will turn in our favor.

Confidence is important in those situations. I don't doubt either that things will turn in our favor, though it's mostly because I doubt they can turn more adverse than they are.

Either way, we'll find out soon enough how our luck holds.
