[edit] Getting Pieces of Eight
Main Article: Trouble Brewing
To get Pieces of Eight, players must participate in the Trouble Brewing minigame. After completing a game, each player is awarded a variable amount of pieces depending on how much was accomplished by that player as well as whether their team won or lost. Pieces of Eight are referred to colloquially as Po8 and Poe.
A player that has completed Rocking Out may also catch Pirate implings for a meager 1 or 3 Pieces of Eight.
