Of course, that's a great tactic: shine someone's shoes without personally setting down the deal, and then flip out when they refuse to pay.Quote:
And the protection was there. You changed the price after the work had already been accomplished.

There's really only one person on the ship who should be tellin' more than one group of able men what to do, and that's the Captain. And that's if we want the Captain to have total control. Now he's the Captain and I respect that, but the best person to tell me what to do to protect myself at night, when we're all supposed to be asleep, is me.
When the sun rises, I do what the Captain says, like everyone else on the crew. When it's nighttime, I'll be watchin' my gold or keepin' my ship mates from dying. Fer a price, of course. I got to earn a livin'.
Nobody, but nobody is gonna tell half the ship what to do with their free time. If we do that, we might as well hang up our bandanas, dump our gold overboard, and beg the whoever turncoats that might be on board this ship for safe passage to a rowboat so we can scamper from a fight with our breasts tucked neatly into our brassieres.
You say you weren't doin' this but you called for protection, and then a bunch of people apparently responded, and then you wanted to change orders and set some grand plan in motion. I say nuts to you, and die for your lyin' tongue.
Brassieres don't exist. You still have the wrong idea, by the way.
Whatever. I don't have the power to see into men's souls.
All I can see is you made a promise, and we delivered, and then you changed the price and decided to start playin' Captain on yer own.
Where do you get off tellin' me to protect Tincow, for half the gold you promised me to protect you? If Tincow wants me help, he can ask for it. Tincow's the kind of lad I'd protect for free. But I'm not going to be told what to do by a man who breaks his word.
That alone is all I need to know about you. Now I can suffer your forked tongue no longer. Close your mouth and die in disgrace.
My gut tells me Montmorency is innocent.
Vote : Askthepizzaguy.
Can't put my hand on it, but something sounds off. You're trying too hard to Monty lynched; it's a thing mafiosi often do, because they have to fake their cases, since they know the person they're attacking in the thread is innocent.
Hah! There's gratitude for ye.
This be the proof that ye be a lying sack of seagull poop. More then 4 times in thread (just went back 1 page), that you asked for protection and were willing to pay 10 extra gold on top of payment from the host for your protection, then backed out after the job was done. Very scummy even for a pirate.
Vote: Monty walk that plank.
I never promised to get protection from you, you rentseeker.
There be ghosts and stuff aboard!

Now, Monty, ye scurvy cur, ye wanted us last night to protect yon TinCow for free, sounds as if you were trying to do the same a sin yon Capo Game, savvy? Except you be a scurvy cur who didna wanna pay, savvy? And it also be Captain's orders, so unvote; vote Montmorency, savvy?
I said: 5 gold for Tincow. Each.
Why do you guys feel the need to BS so much, eh?
I promised gold for protection. I was offered protection. I acccepted protection - just not from you.
I offered another job to keep you guys busy. You had 24 hours to think it over. You rejected it without a response - though Diana was good enough to consider it, at least.
As far as I see it, you guys are menaces. Vote: El Barto
What's with all that saavy talk? Are we the pirates o' the carribean now? :laugh4:
The only menace here is the boy who cried wolf. "Help me I need protection from the mean old Tincow! I'll pay you ten gold!"
When we arrive and protect his sorry hide, "Nevermind! I want you to protect mean old Tincow for five gold!"
It would be hilarious it it didn't make me so pissed off.
Ye be far away from yer friends and relations, Montmorency. Beware of the black velvet band.
You'd have been safe if you kept your word on the ten gold part.
I'll protect a dead parrot, just pay me the money you promised.
Monty dear, I be checking me messages and it be true, ye offered money for TinCow, but only after insulting us by proposing that we do it pro bono {sic}. Ye said: 'do you expect me to pay ye?' and we were revolted at yer cheapness. Captain's orders still be captain's orders.
WHAT IN THE BLAZES IS PRO BONO ANYWAY!?!?! THAT AINT NO PIRATE TALK!!!
I promised 10 for Montmorency, but I ain't never made no promises for Tincow. So shove that crud.Quote:

Alright, I insulted you for your redundancy. What, you want an apology?Quote:

4 Horsemen missed an opportunity to kill someone because they were too busy looking for someone to pay them and when TinCow didn't win, the plan fell through.
4 Horsemen are not supposed to play politics or be mercs. I am disappointed.
Figures, that's what happens when the new leader likes to make announcements like it's a grand opening.
I'm afraid I can't buy any rum with your apologies mate. I want money.
Too bad - I'm writing you out of my will.
You know Monty, it is mainly the way you handled all of this. You got all defensive when all we were asking for was what YOU posted in thread several times. If you had just said thanks but I already got protection, but if you want I can have you protect player X... just a little common curiosity can go a long way. But instead you always get nasty, defensive, and pissy. Getting a little tired of it. You know when you piss in the wind, you can get some on yourself. So how does it feel, warm?
Oh yeah?
I'll remove my vote when someone comes forward, three o them to be precise, and they all say they each got the ten gold you promised for yer protection.
It didn't happen, and you broke your promise to the mercenaries you hired and showed up to do the job. Now the mercenaries are going to kill you, one way, or the other.
You're dead Monty. I hope you can take yer ten gold you owe me with you to the bottom of Davy Jones' locker!
30 gold on a dead man's chest, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Glug, glug, Monty! Glug, glug!
Vote: Diana Abnoba
Revenge!
Well, all of ye seem to be in a kraken-sized pissing match, eh mateys?
That said, I believe that Vote: Montmorency is a good move for today. Ye made a bargain. and then ye backed out. Then ye changed the deal. Now I wasn't a part of these dealings, but it still not be right.
Beating Visorslash be nominormajor feat, Diana, dinna be a-laughing at him.
For yesterday. :stare:
Re: Monty, it's a dumb lynch, and I seriously doubt he is mafia, considering it would be moronic to not spend a little gold to keep safety, get future help, etc. the fact that you guys are voting him is suspicious in itself, and those who are getting personal, take a step back.
The lynch should be used to catch mafia, not on someone people are cranky with. It's what, 10 gold max? Cry me a river.
I disagree.Quote:
