THANKS THIS IS GREAT

Quote from:  Quorneater
Maybe a pirate theme was not the best to choose for the PMBD movement.  Piracy really refers to people who steal stuff they should have paid for (eg ripped off commercial software).

Wouldn't a Robin Hood theme have been less confusing?

I do have to admit that every time there's a news story about a cruise ship getting jacked I sort of cringe. But, despite that, I also realize that there's also the more alluring side of pirate lore, and I think that's the side that Pescado has tapped into. A lot of people can relate to and have fun with pirate themes (I'm pretty certain more people probably dress as pirates on Halloween than, say, TSR FA's) not to mention how Hollywood has popularized pirates. 

Besides, Pescado and his band of Merry Men? -  Cheesy

Dressing up as a TSR FA would truly be one scary Halloween costume. Just imagine them coming to your house now, begging for shit from you (not like that's anything new - the begging part)?

Pirates have been in the news a lot lately. The "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies haven't hurt, plus there was a lawsuit recently involving a website called "Pirate Bay" I believe. And as Snarky said, the boat attacks with both cruise ships and commercial shipping in the Pacific.

I'll post my games picture in a bit. Need to do yard work first.

TSR is obsessed with pirates.  Had a whole theme going a while back.  There's a fetric muckton of pirate-related stuff on that site.  Are they not having a (pirate) booty hunt going on right now?

My nieces play 'Pirates!', with eyepatches and cardboard cutlasses.  I suppose they're filthy thieves too.  They're both six in Pescado years.

*will be posting pics of my purchased games also - still have legible receipts for the last three*

Haha... I wonder if ThomAss's would yell or totally freak out his nieces/children to tears if he'd ever see them putting on hats and patches and playing pirates.  Sad
I kind of pity the kids if that ever happens though. They don' t even know what's all this about.

On the other hand... If he ever tells his kids about his 'work' and us, he probably tells them we eat unicorns and killed Spunge Bob. Not to talk about how we violated Big Bird. Uhh... Tom Tom Jr.s probably hate us  Sad .

P.s. does anyone actually know who Pescado is? Or all we know is that he lives on a skull shaped island?

Blackbeard sailed near where I live and was even held in prison briefly 45 minutes from here. But me personally, I take "Captain Blood" and Jack Sparrow any day.

With my heritage, I could be plain English pirate or Viking, so meh. And for some reason, Pescado and his band of grumpy minions doesn't sound very good as a calling card... But it does beat the name Pillaging Players. Maybe. But not by much. I think. Cheesy Sorry, my brain isn't all here today, no coffee got made this morning.

I live two miles from the ocean, in Florida, plus I live on the Treasure Coast. They call it that because we have like tons of treasure from sunken ships in the ocean around us and in some places, like Vero Beach, I believe, under the sand. So yeah, arg.

If you back up a couple pages, we've been talking about this.

What happened to your post? It seems you were interrupted or something and didn't finish your thought.

And yes, TSR is more obsessed with pirate stuff, I think because they are obsessed with -us-.

Lol, actually the "I" was not my intention, I did not notice that - until now.^^

I found these articles because a member (Udon'tknow) from our german forum moved from MTS to TSR. And that pissed me off, so I wanted to see her profile at TSR and found the article from April 1th...
And in the Article TSR said that they're invited to EA events and were wholeheartedly supported by them, is that true?
Even if it is, I would never pay for their stuff...
