Official summary
Community Emissary Grade
A Community Emissary Grade will be raised by total viewing time accumulated in the Sea of Thieves category on Twitch during the event. As the Community Emissary Grade rises, the multiplier on gold, reputation (Trading Companies and Guilds), Renown, and Allegiance will increase up to a total of 2.5x the reward.
Community Emissary Grade progress is tracked in-game at every Outpost via the flag on display at the local picture wall or through the Events menu!
Pop-Up Plunder
Pop-Up Plunder will become available periodically throughout the event. Players will receive a notification in-game that Pop-Up Plunder has appeared on High Seas servers and a clue of its whereabouts will be released on official Sea of Thieves social media channels.
Once the Pop-Up Plunder has been dug up, a map marker will appear on Map Tables for everyone on the server to see and track.
Pop-Up Plunder will continue to appear periodically until the end of the event.
Twitch Drops
Twitch Drops will be available during the event by watching any Sea of Thieves streamer on Twitch.
Twitch Drops use accumulated watch and progress simultaneously while watching at any time during the event's allotted Twitch Drop schedule. Times may change once the the Bonus Goal has been reached.

Voyages
Skeleton Fort Raids
During the Season 12 Community Weekend, all players, of any standing, may dive to Skeleton Forts for all core Trading Companies. Players will be able to undertake these as many times as they want. For Pirate Legends of any level, Skeleton Forts for Athena's Fortune will be unlocked and repeatable too.
Legend of the Veil
Everyone regardless of Pirate Legend status will also be given the option to undertake a single Legend of the Veil Voyage, allowing newer players a taste of the high-value voyages available from the Pirate Lord.
Picture wall
The picture wall from previous Community Weekends is returning to every Outpost, so you won't need to trek far to snap your perfect selfie, or grab a celebratory beverage at the wall's own grog barrel.
