Kane doesn't need to know everything about where we are.He is far far far far far far far far far far far too busy with...something.

Well, here's my conspiracy theory. What if Boochbeard and Gandry are in cohorts with the ARMADA as spies!? Think of it this way. Boochbeard and Gandry have been at pretty big events in the storyline. They were at our big fight with Tyson, and when we released Catbeard from prison! They are relaying our position and status to Kane to help him along to try and defeat us! During our character selection, if you select mutiny as your parents' death, Gandry says this phrase: "You can trust us......of course." That sentence was said misleadingly or deceptively. Then, when we found out Deacon was on the Erebus, Gandry and Boochbeard act surprised, but shouldn't they have known if an Armada ELITE was on the ship!? When we are on the Erebus, after defeating the Armada soldiers, Deacon fires his sparkgun into a bunch of black powder, blowing it up in Boochbeard's face! That ALONE should have killed ol' El Bucho and his monkey sidekick......but it didn't. That gun was aimed by a ROBOT, and it should have hit dead-on! My thought is Deacon purposefully missed to make it look realistic, but to not kill Boochbeard and Gandry! Now, from my secret headquarters in the boonies of Kansas, I can hear you yelling into your computer screen saying: "WARRIORSCREED!? WHAT IN BLAZES ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!" Think about this slowly.......and let the influx of approvals, disapprovals, rants, cheers, etc. pour in!

Well, if you want disapproval you'll certainly get that! Boochbeard and Gandry are very popular here. If they are spies, why would they rescue us? Couldn't they have just reported to Avery that they failed in their mission? I don't believe the quote was said misleadingly , It comes after Boochbeard saying "That's pirates for you, can't trust any of them" then realizing that HE is a pirate, and what he just said reflects upon him and Gandry, that's when he says "but you can trust us". And since we do see them in a crowd scene, I take it that they are keeping a thoughtful eye on the young pirate they rescued. " Ah Captain Avery, see what you've done? Now every pirate is seeing betrayals everyway they turn" * sighs and shakes her head *

Also, I don't see why Boochbeard and Gandry should have know about Deacon being on board the Erebus, Who would expect the Grand Spymaster of the Armada to be on board a prison ship? And as to the explosion, well, OEJ has pointed out no one is 'killed' in Pirate101, just defeated, and you'll admit that Boochbeard was defeated, ( his head was bobbing around just like ours when we're defeated ) he required our assistance to leave the Erebus and then to steer his ship. So beautiful hypothesis, warriorscreed, but it doesn't pan out.

It is a kids' game, they can't really kill off two of the characters in the tutorial, can they? Your theory does make sense, but I don't think they are spies. After all, they did rescue you from the Armada ship. I get what you mean about the Tyson fight, since I just redid it for fun. That could be a way for them to tell Deacon that you're in Cool Ranch, and could lead him to you in the Motherlode Mine.

Now that I really start to think about it, you do have a really good point. *gasp* Y-you don't think that there will be some sort of big betrayal before the finale at El Dorado, do you?

In Fort Elena,Phule assures us that the Armada knows we are in Cool Ranch,and Deacon saw us when he was with English Bill.They already knew where we were and what we were doing.
Though,how do they know our every movement?Especially now that we ripped apart their Spymaster?

You can no doubt predict the old cat's answer.

Ah, thanks Hoodo Master! I did CR last summer on a 2-month prepaid membership and now I hardly remember it. Most of it is coming back now, since I have been side questing in order to raise my level a bit for Mooshu. (I am only in Khotan Skyway, about to go to the Cavern of Whispers)

But as to Boochbeard and Gandry being spies I still think it may be possible, but not probable. They seem to help you out quite a bit, so they couldn't really be evil. If they were evil I assume that tutorial tips would be given by Captain Avery and/or some of the other class trainers. They might be following you around just to keep an eye out for the pirate they rescued.

I like phule, he let me have his hat

i want something like that to happen! i though though that maybe it could be some of our crew members. i have to agree with your theory and why would they rescue us? i think i have an answer, when they rescue us one of the first things they say is " is he/she the one?" maybe they knew what potential our character has and rescues us just so we can do the dirty work and collect some map peices and maybe avery's in it too after all boochbeard said they were friends when they start to talk about the island and maybe theres a twist and what do u know they betray us and take over all of the spiral!

Phule tells us that the Armada is keeping tabs on us, and at the same time lets slip that the Armada's surveillance is incomplete. So in Valencia, he creepily comments "aren't you supposed to be in Skull Island?"; in Port Regal: "Aren't you supposed to be in Cool Ranch?" So while the Armada has their information sources, they are far from perfect. In Cool Ranch, Deacon was surprised to see us on Boot Hill, and I think thoroughly ticked off since we completely ruined his plan, so much so that he withdraws rather than take a risk there. We do not get on Deacon's list of favorite people (not that he had one) after that episode.

After Deacon is destroyed, it may well be that their gathering of information takes a hit; we don't get hints any more that they are tracking us. Likely this is due to the demise of their spymaster, but also perhaps because they felt they didn't need to keep track of us. After all, they know we are looking for the map pieces too - confrontation at some point is inevitable. And besides, they have a War to run; seeking revenge on one wayward pirate would consume too much effort.

After our interference in Marleybone, now that is a different story. I have a queasy feeling they will expend some effort in tracking us down -- it didn't happen in Aquila, after all, they were still regrouping and trying to keep up the War in Marleybone. And getting sufficient information may have taken time, especially without Deacon there to lead the effort. But they have gold enough to pay for information, and we have made enough enemies for there to be those who would happily rat on us (especially with a little gold in their palm).

But one thing I am certain of - the informants are not Boochbeard and Gandry! Aside from the fact that they rescued us from certain death, can you imagine the Armada choosing to work with such a whimsical pair? I can't!
