Though I am not an official member and just a guest who has been graciously permitted to comment on whatever, I kept track of those ships that were sunk by the Top 100 players for all three days of the competition. I read the same Grog Blog as everyone else has and took part in the contest understanding the importance of personally sinking those ships. I did not sink that many non-Navy ships and saw the difference. Based on my experience and the reports of others, it appears that credit went to those who personally sank the Navy ship. Ten players can tag the same Panther, but whoever sank the Panther got the full credit. Partial credit was siply normal tallying as recorded on the Leaderboards. Does that shed some light?
