Pirate Ship Mafia [Concluded]

[TinCow]

Nay! Vote not for these other landlubbers and traitors! Vote for me, TinCow! I may not have these fancy "geefs" that others do, but I have one thing that I know will prove my dedication to the Pirate Code better than anything else...

My anniversary is on International Talk Like a Pirate Day! That's right! September 19th is the anniversary of my first date with my wife! In fact, the only way I ever even remember what day my anniversary is on is because of Talk Like a Pirate Day! International Talk Like a Pirate Day has saved my marriage! Surely that is proof enough that I am a true Pirate at heart and will do all in my power to bring us all booty (it certainly got me some nice booty)!

Select: TinCow

(Note: True, it's just the dating anniversary, not the wedding anniversary... but cut me some slack, let's see YOU convince your fiancee to get married on International Talk Like a Pirate Day.)

Ye be a scurvy bilge rat! What true pirate worries about remembering the anniversary of his first date? What pirate has a "wife" and not an assortment of wenches at the nearest bar?

Ye reek of limes to me, ye metal cow! Only a British agent would think of International Talk Like a Pirate day as merely a way to remind himself of his first date anniversary! What foppery, says I!

A pirate who doesn't have to pay fer his booty, that's who! Ye can share yer scurvy, lice-ridden wenches with the dirty landlubbers who be plundering her 'wares nightly while yer at sea, but my sea-wife was stolen fair and square from the house of the Governor of Barbados himself! If ye'd plundered the booty of a Governor's wife, ye'd have no more desire for the lowly favors of the same wenches who serve any who cross their hands with silver.

Vote TinCow fer Captain! He steals his women like a proper pirate and doesn't have to resort to pay fer their favors! Under my watch, we'll raid every Governor's house north of the equator! All yer bastards will be heirs to fabulous wealth and fortune, and ye won't have to worry about the French Pox every time ye go to bed!

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Avast lads!

Crazed Rabbit is a hearty soul, and we'd do well enough with him to navigate these murky waters ahead. Tincow's a stout one as well, no doubt, but I've never seen the Rabbit quit -- e'en when he's half-dismasted, in irons and down to steel and pistol only.

For now, I say Select: Crazed Rabbit.

Now, as a side note, I'd like to offer me own services in a bit of lawyerin'. Now most of you know that I never did GET that law degree on account of a bit of disagreement betwixt myself and one of those pettifogging professors -- curse the breed -- regarding the affections of one of the soiled doves what lived near Trinity. I do remember enough to help with a bit a will writin' for those of you who can't be bothered or can't make nought but a mark. I'll keep it simple, a flat 1 gold to write it up. If you wan't me to keep it updated just toss me a couple of more -- and I'll keep it up to snuff even if your still in your hammock and drunk as a lord.


OOC

Crazed Rabbit: Every game I've played/hosted with him, the fellow does NOT quit. This latest Capo he survived at LEAST a week longer than he should have, knew he was on borrowed time, and never stopped trying to change the odds in his favor. Good enough for me unless I hear better.

Yes, I will do wills for you if you like, updating things based on changes you send my way. Yes you COULD do it yourself, but I'll be able to update them even if your "off" somewhere (vacationing, sobering up, lurking like a big dog). 1G for a will with orders of preference; 3G and I'll keep updating it etc. according to your wishes even if you're not there.

[Beskar]

I bet TinCow used a line like "Put down that peg leg and have a real one instead", so select: TinCow

[slashandburn]

I also believe the sea dog known by teh name of Crazed Rabbit should lead us.

Vote:Crazed Rabbit

I also offer will-wreighting serrrvices but it only costs 2 gold for me to be updating yers.

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

aaaarrrrr, competition be ta' cornerstone of Pirate economics! I offer me own skills at will writing for only one gold ta' keep it up to date however you want it!



har har har! lets see ye boys keep up with that! Truly I am villainous scum for this business practice!


and being Villainous scum be the OTHER cornerstone of Pirate economics!

[johnhughthom]

Well at least you can spell writing CDf, put's you at an advantage methinks.

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

aye, me wents to a fine grammar school before me kill the teacher and run to da' sea!

[slashandburn]

ye be offering poor quality, me updating they can trust , im not gouging em like seamus but i offer quality why would ye offer quality updates at nought but a single piece. Strikes me your just trying to steal pirate's honestly plundered gold.

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

baaahhhh Me will updates be just as fine as yours, ye just wishes to grab as much gold as ye can manage. Ye have been beaten by pirate economics my friend, surely ye can appreciate the honor in that.

[shlin28]

Yarrrrrrrgh, did I not mention that since them dastardly invisible drink-thieves be threatenin' the whole of the Presence, this pirate be offerin' will writin' and alteration free of charge! After all, a world full of invisible drink-thieves be a world full of danger... who knows who be the next brave soul to fall prey to them savage beasts...

[scotchedpommes]

Aye, so e wee rabbit spiks some funcy words an' yous are all dazzled, eh? Naw, not 'is one. Ye ken the cow has shown himsel' tae be a level-headed type. The sort that gies thought tae a situation fen it's needed. I say he's proved as much on voyages past. I look to the rabbit an' I see chaos, an' division. Aye, that's fine fir our foes [fools they are] but no us, an' no me. No, no.

That is to say, the cow should lead us onward.

This will undoubtedly be a very good game--every thing denotes it--very much a good game indeed!--but when it comes time to vote again, if this bandwaggoning continues, I will be on my guard not to encourage it--It would be most inexcusable to do otherwise, as my own mind is quite made up about the quality of such methods. I do not look upon you to be quite that sort of pirates-- I do not altogether build upon your arbitrariness or constancy. Your feelings are warm, but I can imagine them rather changeable. Such is, at least, my hope.

I do not say, exert yourself, fellow pirates, for my sake; think more, talk more for my sake; because for your own sake rather, I would wish it to be done, for the sake of what is more important than my wishes, a habit of self-command in you, a consideration of what is your duty, an attention to propriety, an endeavour to avoid the suspicions of others, to save your health and credit, and restore tranquillity to this ship. These are the motives which I have been pressing on you. They are very important--and sorry I will be if you cannot feel them sufficiently to act upon them. My being saved from pain is a very secondary consideration. I want you to save yourself from greater pain.

argh, them be some tall words pirate Sasaki.

No matter, he says he wants us saved from pain... and so he selects the captain who'd bring it.

The above sounded strangely familiar. And lo and behold! It is: it is an excerpt from Jane Austen's 'Emma'.

Jane Austen is the literature of those with a petty loyalty to merry old England....

I'm sure they'll be after wantin' the services of the likes of you -- who decides he'll vote to kill our would-be captain rather than putting "select" likes the good general was askin' fer.

Ya get what ya pays fer lads. Sad that....


't least Drizzt boyo there was more or less spellin' things out square, even if he's deciding to be a cheapskate. Wouldn't know sound economics if it bit him on the left poont.


I'll stand by me numbers lads, and by the level of service you'll get.


EDIT: Tough luck for you too Shlin, seems your big supporter there, the Beefster, wants to see you doin' the Tyburne hornpipe. Sad....
