World of Warships - Scuttlebutt #17 (featuring USS Georgia)
Our continuing weekly series where I ramble on about whatever topics happen to catch my fancy for a particular week. This week, we do a quick re-cap of the final weekend of King of the Sea action, give a shoutout to Shipstorm Saturday, touch on the new patch, look ahead at 0.8.3, point out some ongoing in-game contests, and ask for feedback on a somewhat controversial topic on the NA forums.
A "scuttlebutt" was originally where the sailors on a vessel got their drinking water; frequently a barrel. By the time of the warships of WWII, it equated to what landlubbers call a water fountain. Much like the ubiquitous "water cooler" of the modern office place, it became a location where sailors swapped news, rumors, and gossip.
