Ok, the topic with my post about Norrington got locked and oderlesseye actually sent me a pm about my post because he wanted to comment on it, so I'm starting a new post. Here's selected bits of the original post:

I know ye piratey-types may not be discussin' philosophies too often, but I figured maybe someone had some info. It occured to me that there could be some symbolism in the apple that Barbossa always carries- you know, life, maybe it's a reference to Adam and Eve and the original sin... Maybe they discuss this in the special features, I'm honestly not sure. (I tend not to want to see how they make special scenes and sets if it's a movie I'd like to be real ) Or, it's possible this has been discussed before and I didn't realize it. If so, I'd gladly read that thread instead. Another thing- is the "poisoned" part a reference to another disney movie..? Or is tha…

Found this online, it's mp3's of an old radio show, Afloat with Henry Morgan. Serialized pirate fiction at it's best (or worst perhaps, I haven't listened to it all yet). Naturally I thought of the hearty mates here might enjoy it. http://www.radiolovers.com/pages/afloatwit...henrymorgan.htm

Just a warning to everyone out there. I was looking at picking up a copy of the new "Age of Pirates" from Akella/Playlogice today, but before I did, I did some research. Apparently, Age of Pirates uses the Starforce copy protection software which has known issues causing loss of drive capabilities, hard drive crashes, blue screens and more. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME, unless you have a junk computer you don't mind screwing up for just this game. Apparently, Playlogic is also stonewalling the customer's comments on their forums about it. Eventually, there might be a Starforce-less edition (I hope) but until then, just because it's a game about pirates, you don't have to…

I recently stumbled across a nautical video game on the bargain shelf at Target. It's called (as you could probably guess from the topic title) Age of Sail II: Privateer's Bounty. It is supposed to be a ship to ship combat game. And while it is set after the GAoP, it still looks petty nifty. The only problem with it is that I can't get it to work! Every time that I try to play, it goes through the whole intro, lets me pick which battle I want to play, and then lets me go through setting up the options. However, as soon as I click the button to start the battle, it switches to a screen that says "loading" and never does anything again. No matter how long I wait,…

Anyway, just saying hey and also say that I saw the Jack doll at the NECA booth. Looks awesome! Too bad it was behind glass. They also had pix up of what the Barbossa, Wil and skeleton pirate dolls look like as well. No dolls of them yet tho, damn! Barbossa looks awesome BTW! Yum! Can't wait for that to come out! Alrighty, today is already Friday. Tonight is Pirates, woo-hoo! See ya on Sunday when I get home. Unless....I feel like checking email again. lol!

Just came across this....well, actually I think it was just released: Air Steamship by DAZ - Free for a short time It's a CGI 3D model of an Air Steamship, not a "pirate" ship but can be modified to such. It can be used in a variety of 3D rendering programs, DAZ also has such a program for free called DAZ:Studio, not as full featured as others but getting fairly mature (still buggy IMO). If anyone here uses Poser, Vue, Carrara, Bryce, or other such programs then these 'models' will work in them (Poser & DAZ:Studio naively, the others with just a few tweaks) I have another, much more better one IMO, that I have been meaning to get rendered for you but just have no…

I figure instead of cluttering the Columbia's Revenge thread with typing about Airship Pyrates at Burning Man, I'd start a new thread... Later, if there is enough interest and as it get closer to Burning Man, I'll post this in the events thread... Last year, I went to Burning Man with the Bomb Bay Tea Co. and had a blast. But unlike Pyrates that plan what they are going to do for an event a year in advance,... So far, no one is posting anything about what we are going to do this year.... So to get the ball rolling, I'm starting to work on my camp gear for an Airship Pyrate... So some of this will be "How I made it" posts, and hopefully discussions with others that wan…

Boy, are you all going to hate me for this.... With my new laptop, I can play Second Life (my desktop, doesn't have a very good video card, so I could do some stuff, but it froze on me alla the time) But now I can run around there.... the good news is it is free (unless you wanna buy land and stuff...) The part you will hate me for is how much time you can spend there.... http://secondlife.com/?v=1.1 Anyway, right now I'm Silas Southmoor in Calidonia (or something like that)(it's one of the Steampunk community's) ... looking very gentlemanly and dapper... (Hey, on a scouting mission, I couldn't run around looking like an Airship Pyrate and raising suspiscions...) …

So I caught the rerun of the first episode last night on Bravo. Interesting... considering the one "pirate" act they showed in the commercials was so gawd awful. Never do your drugs before the show folks! They appear to have 2 other pirates, gals from the look of it, in the audience so maybe they'll be called up next ep or so.
