Beowulf Fleet Competition

The Beowulf Fleet recently held it’s first round of ship contests.   Using only the most basic of ships, members were invited to paint and stuff a single ship full of goodies and enter into 3 separate contests.

Since I don’t fly myself, I was recruited to help judge the beauty contest.  From aboard my yacht, the other judges and I watched as each contestant showed off their best design.  As you can see, it was  a difficult choice to make…

Then it was on to the race and finally a contest to determine skill in battle.  Despite the fact that I know that it’s just among friends and no one is really out to hurt anyone, it was still a little nerve wracking for me to watch them fight.

In the end, Admiral -Haruko- won this round of competitions.  But with the determination and dedication of our group’s pilots and shipwrights, I think she’s in for some serious competition next time around.
