Aye, gather 'round me buckos! It's time for an official Toobix contest! With real prizes this time!
The rules: Reply to this post with your best pirate name. Bonus points if you also name your ship, and a couple of your crew members! Multiple submissions are allowed. Keep at it until you get a good one! The contest ends on Sunday (9/20) at 11:59pm. The winner will be picked by me! (bribes must be in the form of baked goods or pastries)
The booty:
First place wins a free shirt from the gamer gear shop (design of your choice), and 3 songs of your choice from the digital media shop! The shirt can be any of the 16 designs that we have available. You're not limited to the new pirate ones, although they are quite snazzy! The winner also receives the right to be called by their pirate name (in real life or otherwise) until the members of this forum see it fitting to stop
And just 'cause I'm feeling good, the runner-up will receive a free song of their choice from the digital media shop!
So let's hear them names! Surely you can do better than Captain Hook, right?

Name: Gentleman Gerlad McBraddock
Ship: Saltsnake
crew: I never asked their names. I raid plunder and pillage and my crew is made of men who choose to serve me.
Conversation goes like this. Since I am a gentleman I will not kill you in cold blood. I will offer you a chance to earn your life. Your choice walk the plank or cut out your tongue and join the crew. You would be suprised how convincing a few bloody tongues thrown over board to chum up the sharks can be.

Captain's name: Jolly "Perfect Target" Jelly
Ship's name: Ninjas' Prize
Crew: Ninja Fodder Freddy, Slippy "Sneak Up Behind Me" Slice, and Ralph "Just Another Dead Pirate" McGammon
I, of course, forfeit any winnings as a result of my entry. Ninjas do not need silly prizes. We hold our self discipline and superior way of life as our eternal prize. That and the dead pirates above and below, of course.

Pirate Name: BARRRack Hussein ObamARR
Ship Name: Socialist-Liberal-Agenda Queen's Revenge
Ship Waters: US of A
Raid Targets: Everyone who pays taxes in me waters, whether ye voted for me or no.
Shipmates: Nancy "Plastic Face" Pelosi, Harry "Cooky" Reid, David "Numbskull" Axlerod, Jimmy "Peanut" Carter, Robert "I look like Red Beard Prime without a beard" Gibbs, ACORN, the Chicago Mafia, NBC/ABC/CBS/the New York Times, the DNC, and the millions of politically naive who voted me into power. YARRRR!!!
Purpose: Give money from landlubbers who earned it to mateys who didn't so that the illegals and the poor vote for ObamARR and his croneys time and time again. ARRR. I'd also like to lose the war on terror (which I cleverly renamed to Overseas Contingency Operation cuz that is more pirate like) by failing to put troops in Afghanistan, releasing all the terror suspects from Gitmo, and by prosecuting Bush-era CIA agents for doin their jobs. ARRR. Next I'd like to sign a stimulus bill that don't do no stimulatin until next year when the economies already recovered, just to drive the national debt up a few trillion so that we can't afford anything that we actually be needin like healthcare reform. Oh it'd be nice if me cronies didn't actually read the bill before it passes too, and if it included a bunch of pork projects even though I promised ye I wouldn't do that. ARRR. Then I want to bail out General Motors and Chrysler to the tune of 50 billion dollars even though they end up in bankruptcy anyway. ARRR. Next I'll be puttin 32 of my looniest friends "the radicals" into jobs that aren't vetted by congress and calling them czars. ARRR. After that I be havin me critics called racist just for disagreein with me. ARRR. Then I be pushin a healthcare reform that don't actually fix the rising cost of healthcare and that most doctors and americans don't want. ARRR. Now I be turnin me blind eye to political corruption from ACORN and Charlie Rangel and all the friends that put me in power back in chicago. ARRR. Next I be pissin on yer back and then tellin ye its raining. ARRR.

As you can see I am really interested in winning this contest. I am concerned does RBP have any protections like master looter in place to ensure that the Epic Lootz aren't ninjad.\

Pirate name:
Captain Barnacle Breath Hugo (IAMZ1)
Ship name:
The Scream of the Executioner (Sounded fitting)
Crew names:
Giant Quincy Smithe (MCSquared/e-affect)
Smilin' Tobias Hornigold (e-effect)
Insane Maurice Barbossa (RBP)
Tax-Evadin' Bryant Smithe (slaanesh1)
Pirate Hillary the Ochre (blondtronic)
I took your names and plugged them into a real change your name to a pirate name site. (used your real names) Turned out pretty kool.
“Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates”
“The average man will bristle if you say his father was dishonest, but he will brag a little if he discovers that his great-grandfather was a pirate.”
“Life's pretty good, and why wouldn't it be? I'm a pirate, after all.”
“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.”
Arrrr, m8ty, me last quote should "stick" me right in with the best of them....
And another thing, all of my crew and captain are derived from actual members here on toobix, can you tell who is who?
Above is riddle one and now for riddle two.......
Shipwrecked we are, once a proud crew,
Evening finds us, stranded and few;
Victory was ours, but now has its cost,
Even so, we must count the lost.
Now we see, only several have survived,
To think our crew, at thirty arrived,
Everyone at rest, we must ask you,
Engage in the counting, how many are the few?
Now I have given the clue, it's all up to you.
First letter of each sentence Seventeen. Also pretty kool.

What do you call a pirate with two eyes and two legs?
A Rookie
Whats the difference between a dead skunk and a dead ninja in the road?
There are skid marks before the Skunk.
If you are stranded on a desert island with Adolf Hitler, Atilla the Hun, and a ninja, and you have a gun with only two bullets, what do you do?
Shoot the ninja twice.
