Merry Christmas

QUOTE Rather than GOF doing anything in the books..perhaps he can mail his work to us and we can add it at the end when we get our books back.. Just a thought.. Eye am willing to send my stuff so he can put it in his own book if he wants..... Kill the nightmare of loosing ones book... Was Mine And Ransoms idea...

RRRRrrrr LoL... Now ifen ye recant of said abuse ..ye shall be welcomed mightily as long as ye share up some Rum... Welcome aboard Scallywag!

Wot ..? A Letter of mark ..-X- just won't do????

Is thare a revised list of whose in/out or adds ? Hate to send out to the wrong person..

OK Ransom Eye saw with amazement! And I like wot patrick says about this being for fun and not a contest.. Eye too missed this when this thread was up last time..

Eye have been busy drawing/photoshopping stuff and then hand coloring them in..My wife is making copies though this is not the whole contribution. I think Skull Pirate Carter will dig on how his starts out... MUMs the word...Eagh Eagh....LoL... Auhh the suspence of waiting almost a whole year just to see! RRRRRrrrr... And yes the Wax seal is still intact.

In the summer of 1716, Hornigold was deposed as captain of the Mary Anne and Bellamy took his place....I Believe he was "voted" because of his skilled Navagation and Leaderships Qualities. As For the Democracy aspect of some of the conversation.. "Black Sams" View of governments are reflected in the following famous speech when they had taken a prize. "I am sorry they won't let you have your sloop again, for I scorn to do any one a mischief, when it is not to my advantage; damn the sloop, we must sink her, and she might be of use to you. Though you are a sneaking puppy, and so are all those who will submit to be governed by laws which rich men have made for their own security; for the cowardly whelps have not the courage otherwise to defend what they get by knavery; but damn ye altogether: damn them for a pack of crafty rascals, and you, who serve them, for a parcel of hen-hearted numbskulls. They vilify us, the scoundrels do, when there is only this difference, they rob the poor under the cover of law, forsooth, and we plunder the rich under the protection of our own courage. Had you not better make then one of us, than sneak after these villains for employment?" As Captain of the Whydah (Sam Belemy) did against his own will the will of the crew..Sink the sloop. So majority ruled in this case..However as pointed out previously..Blackbeard operated as a dictator not taking into account the will of the crew less it was to his advantage. His abondoning part of his crew for his own pocket is proof enough. This contrast of how pirate ships/crews worked socially shows there was not a "pirate nation.' Historical proof shows only the exsistance of "Pirate haunts /such as Naussua or San Juan Island. " the notion of a Pirate Nation is as a legend though a somewhat pervasive idea with pirates who were already well to do, but again no pirate was politically movited to be pirate. It was survival, freedom ,greed, power and alike. Tis my speculation based on books I have read

YE Articles of conduct Every man shall obey civil Command; the Captain shall have one full share and a half in all Prizes; the Master, Carpenter, Boatswain and Gunner shall have one Share and quarter. If any man shall offer to run away, or keep any Secret from the Company, he shall be marroon'd with one Bottle of Powder, one Bottle of Water, one small Arm and shot. If any Many shall steel any Thing in the Company, or game, to the Value of a Piece of Eight, he shall be marroon'd or shot. If at any Time we should meet another `Marrooner ( that is Pyrate) that Man that shall sign his Articles without the Consent of our Company, shall suffer such Punishment as the Captain and Company shall think fit. That Man that shall strike another whilst these Articles are in force, shall receive Mose's Law (that is 40 stripes lacking one) on the bare Back. That Man that shall snap his Arms, or smoak Tobacco in the Hold, without a cap to his Pipe, or carry a Candle lighted without a Lanthorn, shall suffer the same Punishment as in the former Article. That Man that shall not keep his Arms clean, fit for an Engagement, or neglect his Business, shall be cut off from his Share, and suffer such other Punishment as the Captain and the Company shall think fit. If any Man shall lose a Joint in time of an Engagement he shall have 400 pieces of Eight; if a limb 800. If at any time you meet with a prudent Woman, that Man that offers to meddle with her, without her Consent, shall suffer present Death.
