===Maevar Ralnik Accepts Presidency of Dalpok===
And me being Maevar Ralnik, I feel it safe to say that there is no D in my name. Also, I purchased for 50 gold and 11 gems, which totaled to exactly 151 gold pieces. I have no problem with the JRG tavern in town, and I slept there relatively safely for two nights. I was attacked by two natives, one of them a newbie, and I killed the non-newbie after he'd slain Patch, who was overseeing the tavern and had saved my life before. There is no fierce guerilla action at all. There's a single pocket of resistance for the sake of resistance, but the majority of Dalpok has no problem with me. I healed, I distributed gold, and well over 50 natives had the chance to kill me. I spent hours at the time in the medical hut and talked to a few natives live, after only being attacked once for identification. Get your facts straight. - [[User:Erados|'''The Malice''']][[Mercenary's Guild|MG]] 00:06, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Our apologies for the typo. I had meant to quickly double-check thast article, but then I was tired. --The Editor.

Editor - There were no atrocities in New Amsterdam as described in your newspaper, aside from the accidental killing of some healers, small children, some pets - a hamster and a few rabbits - and other non-combatants.

As for dubbing the operation a "raid", it was in fact a highly tactical battle: the Imperials attacked the town in a pincer movement with Rotten Balls, David Hassellhoff and Ella Chen from the north, and myself and Timothy Trust from the south. Setting aside the Healing Hut in the north west, occupied by some 20 scared, starving and pitiful natives with urine-stained loincloths, the streets of New Amsterdam were safely in Imperial hands before its sale to Maevar. We even organised a small dancing competition at the new Amsterdam Town Hall before we departed (Major-General Trust's polka won yet again), using the regimental gramophone.

Finally, the Order of Patriots' support of the rebel Novamsterdammers demonstrates they they are actually native sympathisers, who no doubt practice lechery with monkeys and fondle over-ripe tropical fruit.- First Amongst Daves.

I have to say that the OoP are quite despicable. They persecute most Natives who enter York, yet support them when it suits them best - they should stick to their ideals, and actually do something useful...wait, they only have two members, sorry, carry on--[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 02:08, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Whoa now, We should be a bit more respectful to the Yorkman team. They do make an extremely good and fun to read paper, For Free. This is a "gift" from them to Shatak. So don't take it so seriousl;) --[[User:Michael edwards|Michael edwards]] 03:49, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm with Michael on this one. Kudos to the Yorkman team. Doesn't hurt to be polite.--[[User:Black Joe|Black Joe]] 04:20, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

This newspaper is clearly an effort by liberal democratisers to encourage freedom of speech. Such activities are dangerous and can lead to the slippery slope of other so-called "human rights". The castes should know their places. I personally blame universal education. Back in feudal days no one could read, and everyone was happy tilling wheat, dying in childbirth and using faith in the mercy of the Old Testement God to heal their fatal injuries. If you're going to write a broadsheet, at least do it in Latin so the peasants can't get excited. - Justice Hart of York.

PRESS RELEASE

Imperial Bank Floated from 1st Imperial Privateers

The [[1st Imperial Bank]], the sole financial instiution operating on Shartak, has listed on the Shartak Stock Exchange, disaggregating from its parent, the [[1st Imperial Privateers Regiment]].

"We felt that the useful non-combatant operations of the Bank were inconsistent with our twin goals of pillaging colonist towns and conquer of native peoples," said Major- General [[Timothy Trust]], co-leader of the Imperials.

Colonel [[Ella Chen]], commander of [[shipwreck]] operations of the Imperials, added, "The listing of the Bank under an independent board of directors ensures its legitimacy and transparency, as well as allows the troops to continue to set fire to huts, murder people in their sleep, and impress native women with our pulse-powered advocaat rifles."

The disaggregation has not resulted in the Imperials dropping from their lead as the largest clan on Shartak, still with more active members that the [[Scurvy Crew of the Hellborn Strumpet]].

"We don't envisage this as being a f***ing impediment to f***ing operations!" said Colonel [[Nowherehowdy]], commander of New Amsterdam operations of the Imperials. "In fact, the non-combatant branch managers were more of a f***ing liability given they were obvious targets of retribution! Silly c****!"

Ibn al Xuffasch, [[York]] branch manager of the Bank, said, "The 1st Imperial Bank operates branches in [[Raktam]], [[Durham]], [[Derby]] and York, all within a square of the trader's huts in each centre, and are there for loans, deposits with 10 gold coin interest payments, and inter-branch transfers. The combined gold coin assets of the 1st Imperial Bank exceed that of any other organisation on Shartak Island. This complete independence has lead to a very exciting time in our Bank's history."

=A Gentleman's Wager=

It appears that recently a member of the Scurvy Crew has had a beef and has started hunting a member of the Jolly Roger Gang. Rather than let this encourage more violence between the crews the Captains have decided to let them settle it between themselves. The recent decision to start placing bets on who wins and the possible profits of such had absolutely nothing to do with the Captains' judgement in this case.

That being said, '''PLACE YOUR BETS! PLACE YOUR BETS RIGHT HEAH!!!'''

*Captain Michael Edwards: 7 on the Roger boy to win
*Captain Tyler Whitney: 5 gold on Mr. Xintlaer to win, with a side bet of six gold that he gets lucky and lands two 5-damage swings of the cutlass in the process.
*Captain Dan wages '''30 golden coins''' on Xintlaer to beat this here Roger boy! Note, this be a private bet. Anyone wish to risk 30 coins on that Zom-VLD will beat our boy?
*Rozen, JRG's PKer slayer, wagers 5 on Zom, with a side bet of 5, on the fight ending with the winner (whoever it be) on lower than 15 HP.
*Zom-VLD, JRG's treasurer - 30 gold to whoever wins (challenge bet)
*Xintlaer, Strumpet's boatswain - 30 to the winner too.
As it appears Mr. Xintlaer and the Jolly Roger's treasurer are the offending parties they are encouraged to approach the beach adjacent to the shipwreck on Friday (exact time to be determined) when the match will begin.

The Captains have been approached with the possibility that the fight be held further south so that other Outsiders and perhaps even Natives could witness it and bet unharrassed. Captain Whitney is loathe to accomodate the Natives in anything, but is sorely tempted by the thought of all their savage Gold. Captain Whitney proposes that the fight be held outside the ruins south of the Wreck so that visitors may witness and wager as they please. Whatever massacres occur a discrete distance and lapse of time from the match might be another matter entirely. The location is fitting in any case. God knows what savage, backward rituals took place on that spot before the Strumpet had the ill-fortune to wreck on this coast. What says the Jolly Roger Gang?

Also Mr. Xintlaer has yet to respond to the prospect of the fight (not surprising since the idea only took shape this morning). If he's still absent by friday another member of The Scurvy Crew can represent the Strumpet in the match. And either party always has the possibility of a rematch...

I am present and I agree for the duel. --[[User:Xintlaer|Xintlaer]] 14:45, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Dude, frickin awesome... [[User:Tyler Whitney|Tyler Whitney]] 01:25, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Also I vouch for the ruins to host the match, We should start spreading the word around Shartak.--[[User:Michael edwards|Michael edwards]] 02:26, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Okay, latest idea is 1st match is tomorrow at 7pm EST, unless there are any objections. Then we can make it best 2 out of 3 with the second match Sunday. If it goes to three rounds we can settle that maybe late monday or tuesday. We want to give the fighters time to heal, do the shaman bounce if they have to, and get back in the arena rested and ready to fight!!

It's also been proposed that this become the first of a series of inter-clan matches, which is a groin-grabbingly good idea!!! Any clans interested should drop Captains Edwards and Whitney a line, or simply start up a new Shartak Boxing League page, or somehting like that.

I would rather prefer the first match to be on Sunday... 7 pm EST... it's 1 pm for me, and I'm at the university today...--[[User:Xintlaer|Xintlaer]] 08:58, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Arrr, I see nay problem with the move to sunday. 7PM EST is 11PM fer me, so it be fine. As fer 3 rounds, it be needin' 3 days too, 1 round per day, arr --[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 16:20, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

=Vendetta!=

Over the past few months the Scurvy Crew and other Pirates have become increasingly aware of Outsiders directing violence at their Pirate cousins.

[[ image:Tableau-barbenoire.jpg ]]

(Unidentified members of the Scurvy Crew and Anti-Pirates engage in battle at the Hell-born Strumpet's Wreck).

For some reason nearly all the clans that have made slaying Pirates their mandate are based out of York. To determine the actual situation the Captain went on a goodwill tour to the Yorkmen's camp. Believing that it was bad manners for a visitor to arrive at a neighbor's empty-handed Captain Whitney brought a bag filled 43 bottles of rum (one for every member of the Crew), and several cutlasses with which to impress the locals. By the time he arrived in York only half a bottle of rum was left, and this was soon thrown at a nearby wild boar. After announcing his presence and intentions at the local Colonial Police station the Captain decided to hit the town. There he saw a pub and several huts in which Outsiders and Natives cohabited peacefully and in which Captain Whitney was welcomed with opened arms and bottles. Such civility between Outsiders and Natives seemed unnatural to the Captain, but he was determined not to offend his hosts, especially while they were picking up this round.

It was during his second night of carousing with the locals that the Captain was assaulted by his first Anti-Pirate. It was one of the same Yorkmen who had been harrassing the Strumpet's Wreck and any other pirates they happened across.

With what he now knew about the population of York, and its Anti-Pirate minority the Captain is convinced that a declaration of Vendetta is in order. The Captain declares Vendetta as approved murdering of one or more clans rather than the indiscriminate targeting of a village as in a Raid. While individual members of these clans have whispered their belief that their machetes might abstain from Scurvy Crew blood (due to the Crew's general policy of non-violence towards other Outsiders) their actions speak differently. The Scurvy Crew cannot also stand by while other Pirates are slain simply for loving rum and brawling more than the island's more timid elements. The Crew be hereby ordered to sink their daggers and cutlasses into members of the following clans wherever they be found:

*[http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/The_Pirate_Hunters The Pirate Hunters]: Goes without saying...
*[http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/York_Pirate_Slayers York Pirate Slayers]: Same as above...
*[http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/Order_of_Patriots The Order of Patriots]: It at first appeared the Order's mandate be only the defense of citizens of York and not indiscriminate pirate-hunting. This led the Captain to propose Parley with the Order. The Captain's offer of Parley [http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/Talk:Order_of_Patriots#PARLEY.21.21 was soundly rejected] and they have made it clear through their words and actions that their goal is the complete obliteration of Pirates from the island. They should be considered as no better than the rumless Natives...

A member of one of the clans mentioned above recently approached the Captain in York and asked for a temporary ceasefire. It seems someone has contracted the Mercenary's Guild to attack the same clans the Scurvy Crew has now declared Vendetta against. This was done before the start of the Captain's goodwill tour of the Yorkmen's camp.

The Captain sees no reason to declare a ceasefire. Why should we, your targets since your clans' inception be moved to restraint now when you have demonstrated none towards us in the past? Are Pirates supposed to pity you now that you are seeing the result of your months of indiscriminate violence towards us? Why should we sheath our cutlasses and wait for your machetes to be sunk into our backs at your convenience? No, many strange and evil things dwell in the hearts of pirates, but mercy isn't one of them.

=New Tortuga Has Been Achieved=

'''At the conclusion of negotiations with various other outsider groups the island that the Scurvy Crew calls New Tortuga has been declared a nonaggression zone. The Captain protected the Scurvy Crew's right to behave like violent, drunken villians throughout the lengthy parley. This natural right has been reinforced (so long as no outsiders are harmed on the island or within its shallow waters). What follows below is the original account of the Captain's spiritual awakening and call to New Tortuga:'''

The Wiksik Raid was hard fighting, no denying that. Those members of the crew who braved the jungle, ill-educated anti-pirate outsiders, native beasts, and savage natives, found themselves several days travel away from their home shaman. The glory and rum won by our cutlasses was that much sweeter with the struggle.

[[ image:42699438_5b6c0cc023.jpg ]]

(Derbymen, unaligned Pirates, and members of The Scurvy Crew battle through the island's natives to assault the shaman of Wiksik.)

Many Pirates and Outsiders died in the Wicksick raid. The Captain himself greeted his pirate brethren in the afterlife. It was in this shadow realm that the Captain witnessed the Giant Bottle of Rum.

"Behold your better," said the Bottle of Rum, "And Despair..."

And the Captain of The Scurvy Crew beheld the Giant Bottle of Rum. "Truly I both love and fear you O' Giant Bottle of Rum, but what of my Pirate brothers and sisters? We have been scattered across the island" he said. "We are hunted for our heads by rumless savages. Where can we go to celebrate our bloody plunder and drain the island of rum?"

And yay the Giant Bottle of Rum looked upon the Scurvy Crew in their toils in Wiksik and said, "Know that I have created an island for ye who hunger, and thirst for drunkeness, and it is not the island you stand on. It is the island west of Shartak, and as ye pirates (the beloved children of the Giant Bottle of Rum) love inebriation, so shall you find rum on this island. And it shall be named [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortuga "New Tortuga"].

And the Captain understood The Giant Bottle of Rum, and knew its purpose for the Scurvy Crew. All Crewmembers be hereby ordered to flood the large, horizontal island west of the greater island of Shartak. This island, south of the Strumpet's wreck and west of the Native village of Dalpok, shall be known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortuga "New Tortuga"]. New Tortuga shall henceforth be known as a private gaming preserve for outsiders in general, but pirates especially, and especially The Scurvy Crew of the Hell-born Strumpet.

=Bloody Dalpok!=

It was in the midst of a late afternoon apertif of 3 liters of Derby Rum that a sharpening stone was dropped in the Captain's lap by a particularly ugly monkey.

"Goddamit Monkey!" the Captain said. "That's the fifth time ye interrupted my pouring!"

The Captain then proceeded to waste three days of his life hunting the particularly ugly monkey through jungle, ruins, and shipwreck. He finally cornered it in the Strumpet's Crow's Nest (that sounds a bit racy doesn't it? Nevermind!). After the long pursuit, and being a bit peckish, the Captain ate the monkey.

[[ Image:Monkey2.jpg ]]

Sources believe this to be the monkey in its natural habitat, and before the Captain ate it.

It was only when he got to the tail that he noticed a missive tied to it with a green ribbon. Picking his teeth with a monkey rib the Captain sat down to read the message with an after-supper pint of rum. It read:

"Ahoy Captain! My Gang of pirates has planned a raid on dalpok. We have a large deal of pirates marching on Dalpok next week,I would like to invite any of your crew members who might be around to partake in the pillage.--Michael edwards 00:17, 31 August 2006 (UTC)"

"Four Cannon's A-Blazing!" exclaimed the Captain with what he believed to be a pirate expression (it was not, in fact no pirate until him had '''ever''' said those words). "There are other pirates on the island besides my beloved Scurvy Crew?" The Captain then sat down and spent the rest of the day drinking and thinking about the implications of this discovery.

The Captain awoke the next morning to hear a ghost whispering in his ear. Shooting up ramrod straight the Captain climbed up Crow's Nest once more, and pulled from his pocket a whistle made of Native bones. Taking a deep breath the Captain then blew on the whistle, but no sound was heard. In fact, the dozens of pirates around the Strumpet's wreck (who the Captain had been too drunk or insane to notice until a day ago) were completely oblivious to the tiny figure at the top of the Crow's Nest, playing a whistle with all his formidable might. But across Shartak, in jungles and mountains, villages and grasslands, buried in swamps and floating in water, specially trained sets of ears heard a faint ringing.

"My Beloved Scruvy Crew of the Hell-Born Strumpet!" bellowed Captain Tyler Whitney from the Crow's Nest, "Blood's being spilled in a Native Village and we're not the cause of it! All crewmembers be ordered to join our pirate brothers in flooding the dirt paths of Dalpok with blood! BYOB!"

== The Royal Expedition ==

Mr Dan here. I cannot stop ye or order ye to do anything, but for Christ Sake, PLEASE DON'T ATTACK ANY ROYAL EXPEDITION MEMBERS!!! I've spent a fair while negotiating with them not to attack us. We do not need a war. For more details, look at their talk page. '''Captain Dan'''

Well, I don't know why, but I just got killed by mister Jones Dye, a member of the Royal Expedition --[[User:Xintlaer|Xintlaer]] 17:23, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

There has been talk of pirates scouring the mountain for buried treasure, and the Captain has seen Mr. Wifey in one of the tunnels. To help with navigation here be the first map of paths under the mountain yet produced.

Thanks go to Dr J for his spelunking.

== Mr. Badhammer! ==

The Case of Mr. Badhammer has been moved to the discussion page in lieu of a dedicated history page to come later (once there's enough history to justify its existence). Any who wish to read about the first application of nautical justice in the island's history may find it there.

Your unknowingly disgraceful conduct embarrased the crew in the past (if it is indeed possible to disgrace persons such as we). You have, however, performed your duties admirably these past few months, and remained steadfastly loyal to the crew even during your demotion to Able Bodied Seaman. Your continued service to the crew in these conditions points to the high quality of your character. In light of your lengthy service, and the good conduct that was named as a necessity for your continued presence among the crew, your case is hereby dismissed.

Tyler Whitney: My apologies, my beloved crew, that I have not been able to join you personally in the razing of Dalpok. As I'm sure you know, I've been occupied with a fact-finding mission to York. The good news is that in the meantime 2 pirate-slaying outsiders and 2 natives have tasted cold steel. My congratulations to the members of the Scurvy Crew who have lent such impressive aid to our Pirate brethern in Dalpok.

=A Gentleman's Wager=

It appears that recently a member of the Scurvy Crew has had a beef and has started hunting a member of the Jolly Roger Gang. Rather than let this encourage more violence between the crews the Captains have decided to let them settle it between themselves. The recent decision to start placing bets on who wins and the possible profits of such had absolutely nothing to do with the Captains' judgement in this case.

That being said, '''PLACE YOUR BETS! PLACE YOUR BETS RIGHT HEAH!!!'''

*Captain Michael Edwards: 7 on the Roger boy to win
*Captain Tyler Whitney: 5 gold on Mr. Xintlaer to win, with a side bet of six gold that he gets lucky and lands two 5-damage swings of the cutlass in the process.
*Captain Dan wages '''30 golden coins''' on Xintlaer to beat this here Roger boy!
*Rozen, JRG's PKer slayer, wagers 5 on Zom, with a side bet of 5, on the fight ending with the winner (whoever it be) on lower than 15 HP.
*Zom-VLD, JRG's treasurer - 30 gold to whoever wins (challenge bet)
As it appears Mr. Xintlaer and the Jolly Roger's treasurer are the offending parties they are encouraged to approach the beach adjacent to the shipwreck on Friday (exact time to be determined) when the match will begin.

=Vendetta!=

Over the past few months the Scurvy Crew and other Pirates have become increasingly aware of Outsiders directing violence at their Pirate cousins.

[[ image:Tableau-barbenoire.jpg ]]

(Unidentified members of the Scurvy Crew and Anti-Pirates engage in battle at the Hell-born Strumpet's Wreck).

For some reason nearly all the clans that have made slaying Pirates their mandate are based out of York. To determine the actual situation the Captain went on a goodwill tour to the Yorkmen's camp. Believing that it was bad manners for a visitor to arrive at a neighbor's empty-handed Captain Whitney brought a bag filled 43 bottles of rum (one for every member of the Crew), and several cutlasses with which to impress the locals. By the time he arrived in York only half a bottle of rum was left, and this was soon thrown at a nearby wild boar. After announcing his presence and intentions at the local Colonial Police station the Captain decided to hit the town. There he saw a pub and several huts in which Outsiders and Natives cohabited peacefully and in which Captain Whitney was welcomed with opened arms and bottles. Such civility between Outsiders and Natives seemed unnatural to the Captain, but he was determined not to offend his hosts, especially while they were picking up this round.

It was during his second night of carousing with the locals that the Captain was assaulted by his first Anti-Pirate. It was one of the same Yorkmen who had been harrassing the Strumpet's Wreck and any other pirates they happened across.

With what he now knew about the population of York, and its Anti-Pirate minority the Captain is convinced that a declaration of Vendetta is in order. The Captain declares Vendetta as approved murdering of one or more clans rather than the indiscriminate targeting of a village as in a Raid. While individual members of these clans have whispered their belief that their machetes might abstain from Scurvy Crew blood (due to the Crew's general policy of non-violence towards other Outsiders) their actions speak differently. The Scurvy Crew cannot also stand by while other Pirates are slain simply for loving rum and brawling more than the island's more timid elements. The Crew be hereby ordered to sink their daggers and cutlasses into members of the following clans wherever they be found:

*[http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/The_Pirate_Hunters The Pirate Hunters]: Goes without saying...
*[http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/York_Pirate_Slayers York Pirate Slayers]: Same as above...
*[http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/Order_of_Patriots The Order of Patriots]: It at first appeared the Order's mandate be only the defense of citizens of York and not indiscriminate pirate-hunting. This led the Captain to propose Parley with the Order. The Captain's offer of Parley [http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/Talk:Order_of_Patriots#PARLEY.21.21 was soundly rejected] and they have made it clear through their words and actions that their goal is the complete obliteration of Pirates from the island. They should be considered as no better than the rumless Natives...

A member of one of the clans mentioned above recently approached the Captain in York and asked for a temporary ceasefire. It seems someone has contracted the Mercenary's Guild to attack the same clans the Scurvy Crew has now declared Vendetta against. This was done before the start of the Captain's goodwill tour of the Yorkmen's camp.

The Captain sees no reason to declare a ceasefire. Why should we, your targets since your clans' inception be moved to restraint now when you have demonstrated none towards us in the past? Are Pirates supposed to pity you now that you are seeing the result of your months of indiscriminate violence towards us? Why should we sheath our cutlasses and wait for your machetes to be sunk into our backs at your convenience? No, many strange and evil things dwell in the hearts of pirates, but mercy isn't one of them.

=New Tortuga Has Been Achieved=

'''At the conclusion of negotiations with various other outsider groups the island that the Scurvy Crew calls New Tortuga has been declared a nonaggression zone. The Captain protected the Scurvy Crew's right to behave like violent, drunken villians throughout the lengthy parley. This natural right has been reinforced (so long as no outsiders are harmed on the island or within its shallow waters). What follows below is the original account of the Captain's spiritual awakening and call to New Tortuga:'''

The Wiksik Raid was hard fighting, no denying that. Those members of the crew who braved the jungle, ill-educated anti-pirate outsiders, native beasts, and savage natives, found themselves several days travel away from their home shaman. The glory and rum won by our cutlasses was that much sweeter with the struggle.

[[ image:42699438_5b6c0cc023.jpg ]]

(Derbymen, unaligned Pirates, and members of The Scurvy Crew battle through the island's natives to assault the shaman of Wiksik.)

Many Pirates and Outsiders died in the Wicksick raid. The Captain himself greeted his pirate brethren in the afterlife. It was in this shadow realm that the Captain witnessed the Giant Bottle of Rum.

"Behold your better," said the Bottle of Rum, "And Despair..."

And the Captain of The Scurvy Crew beheld the Giant Bottle of Rum. "Truly I both love and fear you O' Giant Bottle of Rum, but what of my Pirate brothers and sisters? We have been scattered across the island" he said. "We are hunted for our heads by rumless savages. Where can we go to celebrate our bloody plunder and drain the island of rum?"

And yay the Giant Bottle of Rum looked upon the Scurvy Crew in their toils in Wiksik and said, "Know that I have created an island for ye who hunger, and thirst for drunkeness, and it is not the island you stand on. It is the island west of Shartak, and as ye pirates (the beloved children of the Giant Bottle of Rum) love inebriation, so shall you find rum on this island. And it shall be named [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortuga "New Tortuga"].

And the Captain understood The Giant Bottle of Rum, and knew its purpose for the Scurvy Crew. All Crewmembers be hereby ordered to flood the large, horizontal island west of the greater island of Shartak. This island, south of the Strumpet's wreck and west of the Native village of Dalpok, shall be known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortuga "New Tortuga"]. New Tortuga shall henceforth be known as a private gaming preserve for outsiders in general, but pirates especially, and especially The Scurvy Crew of the Hell-born Strumpet.

=Bloody Dalpok!=

It was in the midst of a late afternoon apertif of 3 liters of Derby Rum that a sharpening stone was dropped in the Captain's lap by a particularly ugly monkey.

"Goddamit Monkey!" the Captain said. "That's the fifth time ye interrupted my pouring!"

The Captain then proceeded to waste three days of his life hunting the particularly ugly monkey through jungle, ruins, and shipwreck. He finally cornered it in the Strumpet's Crow's Nest (that sounds a bit racy doesn't it? Nevermind!). After the long pursuit, and being a bit peckish, the Captain ate the monkey.

[[ Image:Monkey2.jpg ]]

Sources believe this to be the monkey in its natural habitat, and before the Captain ate it.

It was only when he got to the tail that he noticed a missive tied to it with a green ribbon. Picking his teeth with a monkey rib the Captain sat down to read the message with an after-supper pint of rum. It read:

"Ahoy Captain! My Gang of pirates has planned a raid on dalpok. We have a large deal of pirates marching on Dalpok next week,I would like to invite any of your crew members who might be around to partake in the pillage.--Michael edwards 00:17, 31 August 2006 (UTC)"

"Four Cannon's A-Blazing!" exclaimed the Captain with what he believed to be a pirate expression (it was not, in fact no pirate until him had '''ever''' said those words). "There are other pirates on the island besides my beloved Scurvy Crew?" The Captain then sat down and spent the rest of the day drinking and thinking about the implications of this discovery.

The Captain awoke the next morning to hear a ghost whispering in his ear. Shooting up ramrod straight the Captain climbed up Crow's Nest once more, and pulled from his pocket a whistle made of Native bones. Taking a deep breath the Captain then blew on the whistle, but no sound was heard. In fact, the dozens of pirates around the Strumpet's wreck (who the Captain had been too drunk or insane to notice until a day ago) were completely oblivious to the tiny figure at the top of the Crow's Nest, playing a whistle with all his formidable might. But across Shartak, in jungles and mountains, villages and grasslands, buried in swamps and floating in water, specially trained sets of ears heard a faint ringing.

"My Beloved Scruvy Crew of the Hell-Born Strumpet!" bellowed Captain Tyler Whitney from the Crow's Nest, "Blood's being spilled in a Native Village and we're not the cause of it! All crewmembers be ordered to join our pirate brothers in flooding the dirt paths of Dalpok with blood! BYOB!"

== The Royal Expedition ==

Mr Dan here. I cannot stop ye or order ye to do anything, but for Christ Sake, PLEASE DON'T ATTACK ANY ROYAL EXPEDITION MEMBERS!!! I've spent a fair while negotiating with them not to attack us. We do not need a war. For more details, look at their talk page. '''Captain Dan'''

Well, I don't know why, but I just got killed by mister Jones Dye, a member of the Royal Expedition --[[User:Xintlaer|Xintlaer]] 17:23, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Ah hell with it. I can't negotiate. Kill em if you want. I wish you would have put a word in this Captain. '''Captain Dan'''

Parley has been resumed with York and the Royal Expedition. If no appropriate reply is sent ye have liberty to pursue your vengance without fear of censure from your crew.

There has been talk of pirates scouring the mountain for buried treasure, and the Captain has seen Mr. Wifey in one of the tunnels. To help with navigation here be the first map of paths under the mountain yet produced.

Thanks go to Dr J for his spelunking.

== Mr. Badhammer! ==

The Case of Mr. Badhammer has been moved to the discussion page in lieu of a dedicated history page to come later (once there's enough history to justify its existence). Any who wish to read about the first application of nautical justice in the island's history may find it there.

Your unknowingly disgraceful conduct embarrased the crew in the past (if it is indeed possible to disgrace persons such as we). You have, however, performed your duties admirably these past few months, and remained steadfastly loyal to the crew even during your demotion to Able Bodied Seaman. Your continued service to the crew in these conditions points to the high quality of your character. In light of your lengthy service, and the good conduct that was named as a necessity for your continued presence among the crew, your case is hereby dismissed. Ye be now reinstated to your former position as Quartermaster of the Scurvy Crew of the Hell-Born Strumpet. Congratulations, Quartermaster Badhammer! The crew lifts its flagons to you.

== Treachery in the clan ==

Captain Whitney and all other clan members, my name is kjacobso (http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=4344) and I am a loyal member of the Scurvey Crew. On 08/18/2006 I was ruthlessly attacked and murdered by a fellow crew member, Sigfrid (http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=1567). This attack was unprovoked and I ask that appropriate action be taken. Here is an ingame-shot (http://pichostwizard.com/show.php?id=257244). Thank you.

Yarr, I been paid by [[User:Gandhi|Gandhi]] of the [[Royal Expedition]] to aid in destabilizing ye crew. The leader of the mutiny be Johnny Bullocks. [[User:B4ll54ck kill3r|B4ll54ck kill3r]] 18:28, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

I can assure you the Royal Expedition had no such intentions, and I nor any other member of the RE ever paid B4ll54ck_kill3r to destabilize your Crew. B4ll54ck_kill3r has defaced the Royal Expedition wiki multiple times and has spread lies and rumors about RE members. I speak for the Royal Expedition when I say B4ll54ck_kill3r is a menace and has not a single metric unit of truth or honor in his bones. We are currently trying to ban him from the wiki to prevent lies about other clans from being spread and causing more damage. [[User:Gandhi|Gandhi]] 21:03, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[[User:Gandhi|Gandhi]] be the very man who paid me to do 'uch deeds! He put a 50 coin 'ounty on me 'ead. [[User:B4ll54ck kill3r|B4ll54ck kill3r]] 15:49, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Any mutineers will have to go through me and half the crew to reach the Cap'n. And Gandhi, if I find anything different from what you say, you will see me after the raid. '''Captain Dan'''

I assure you Captain, I have never paid nor will ever pay B4ll54ck kill3r to harm a pirate, native, outsider, or anything for that matter. Why would I pay him to kill either you or any other crew member when I can do so completely under my own ability?! I would be deeply offended if you took B4ll54ck kill3r's word over mine, especially given the current peace between the Scurvy Crew and the Royal Expedition. [[User:Gandhi|Gandhi]] 17:51, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

And who are we to believe Gandhi? You or one of our own? Would you believe me other one such as LessThenLethal or another of your brothers? And does it not say in your Wiki profile that you specalize in Espionage? That, if I am not mistaken, is the act of spying, spreading disorder and '''destabilizing''' the enemy? Quite honestly, I don't believe you, and I don't want to either. I value pirates over outsiders, especialy Yorkmen, who are known for their prejudice against our kind. So, in short, why in all of the rumless hell should we believe you or your group? '''Captain Dan'''

Oh, and you mentioned it being in your ability to slay me? I seriously doupt that any Yorkman will ever outskill a Man of the Strumpet and certainly will never outfight me and escape with his life. And, ''speaking for myself and not the Crew'', I don't trust you at all. '''Captain Dan'''

Captain, I can assure you that the Royal Expedition has no need or desire to engage in such underhanded activity against your clan. --[[User:Gitboy|Less Than Lethal]] 20:59, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

One of your own kind? If you check the history of your own wiki, you will learn that B4ll54ck kill3r was once a member of the Scurvy Crew, then suddenly left the clan to join the Jolly Roger Gang, and then left that clan to remain independent. I wonder how you can call this man "one of your own." And as to me being able to kill you Captain Dan, I am referring to the discourse we had on the Western Isle during the conflict between our clans. I killed you once, but only while the conflict was escalating. Once you returned to the Isle, I had the opportunity to take you and Tyler Whitney out with my sword, but instead used diplomacy. Our clans found common ground in securing the Western Isle as a safe haven to all citizens of Shartak. Do our peaceful efforts mean nothing to you? I have no desire to harm the Scurvy Crew or any of its member. If you cannot see that, I consider all of the constructive work to make the Western Isle a peaceful haven for all nothing but a waste of time. Please realize what you are suggesting, and that B4ll54ck kill3r is merely a lying nuisance that should be banned from the wiki and Shartak. [[User:Gandhi|Gandhi]] 23:35, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

The Yorkman asked me to comment and you'll be able to see my response in the next issue. Basically, I'm saying why the hell we should believe a guy who says he was paid to kill us? I also highly doubt him given the admirable display of bare-knuckled diplomacy that resulted in the Non-Aggression Zone around New Tortuga/"Unity Island." And if they wanted to hit us I'd like to think one of the oldest and largest outsider groups on the island would have the huevos to do the dirty work themselves. Not hire some clanless joker to pk the nearest Scurvy Crew member and make an ass of himself on the wiki. Mr. Dan, your eagerness to protect a percieved member of the crew from slander is admirable, but consult with your other crewmates before threatening violence with another clan. [[User:Tyler Whitney|Tyler Whitney]] 12:12, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

I was not threatening the RE, but more or less Gandhi. As for this matter, my pride is hurt, but it also demands an apology. Gandhi, too you I offer an apology for my rudeness which could have destroyed what careful negotiations had built. To the Captain, I offer an apology for straying into matters outside that of a Surgeon's duty or a Surgeon's knowledge. And too the RE, I hope I never have to talk to any member of the group again, as all I can manage is unnneeded aggression. And as for you, B4ll54ck kill3r, I stood up for you and lost some of my honour. As far as I am concerned, you are no longer one of my blood brothers. I will say no more on the matter, as a Surgeon should not care or be needed in the running of a Ship, esspecialy one as dignified as the Strumpet. Again, my apologies to all... '''Captain Dan'''

Thank you for seeing the true nature of this conflict. To Captain Dan, in retrospect I too offer my apologies for the unkind exchanges made both here and on the Western Isle. In the context of war or conflict, it's easy to forget who your opponents are and to treat them with respect. I can ensure that any further discourse between the Scurvy Crew and I will be nothing but tasteful and professional. [[User:Gandhi|Gandhi]] 14:45, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

== Intelligence ==

Captain Dan here. I decided that we ought to have some way to keep up on the other groups so we can neutralize threat, keep alliances going and the such that the Captain could look at quickly and help decide what to do next. Just add your bit of info.

*A new group called the "Pirate Hunters". Small and new, no need to worry, but maybe we should deal with it before it becomes a problem. I can't locate it though, maybe we could hire the mercenart Guild... '''Captain Dan'''

As has already been elaborated on, the Captain has invoked the right of Parley with one anti-pirate group (although they have yet to respond). There is the possibility that New Tortuga may become a pan-Shartak summit of interested Pirate and Outsider groups who wish to determine each others' exact allegiances and spheres of influence. More on this possibility to come...

== The Route to Raktam ==

Aye, note from the Boatswain - as we are going to burn down Raktam, the route from the deck is 58 paces due SE,145 paces E and 15 paces SE
:Why Raktam? Why not Dalpok? Is not Dalpok closer? And we already have a road leading straight to Dalpok from the ship! It's scarcely two days' walk.--[[User:Wifey|Wifey]] 23:14, 23 April 2006 (BST)
::As it wasn't my decision I am only giving the route... talk to the Captain for details.--[[User:Xintlaer|Xintlaer]]

== Impersonation of the Captain ==

Captain, some mangy dog has called himself 'Tyler Whitey' in a cheap impersonation of yourself. Do you know anything about this? '''Captain Dan'''

"Tyler Whitey" merely be ICDIF with lifts to make him appear taller and more threatening and, hrm... "Stuffing" to disguise his other obvious inadequacies.

== The Battle of Dalpok ==

Argh, having just joined the Scurvy Crew meself, I'm proud t' report me first kill for you lads is none other than Xyu. I [http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g138/Rip_Purr/Shartak%20screens/Xyuscalp.jpg nabbed] him just off the road to [[Dalpok]]. We've set up a bit of a camp, and are guerilla-ing it back and forth. - Wolverine.

Well done! Xyu is also the name of a player who started the Mal Tour 06 in Urban Dead. Well done! Captain '''Dan/Surgeon'''
: Wow! I was going to mention that I was wondering if it was him, but I thought it best not to mention UD as if everyone played it, because that would be bad form. I hope it was him, though such a legend should have had more skills than Close Combat and Advanced CC. -Wolverine

Secured a hut to the very South West. Moving to take control of their armoury. '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''
:Bugger. I took one out then got hit. Will be at the hut soonish I hope. -'''Wolverine'''

Armoury secured. Need more men. Whos supposed to be leading the raid? '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''
:Yarr, Cap'n, I've come to bolster your security. All priates heading to Dalpok, get to the South West most hut. Tis offering good protection. Do we have a forum for this sort of thing? -'''Wolverine'''

Blow me away, I be not a good geography plotter! The hut we are all in is somewhere along the western side. The armourie is captured, but can't be defended. I NEED MORE MEN TO HELP ME!!! As this is also to get our name recognised, I've been writing on all the Empty Huts "Hut has been taken by the Men of the Strumpet!" (Do pirates have medals? 'Cause I damn well diserve one!!!) '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

To anyone in Dalpok, aim for the Shaman!!! '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

WHICH GOD FORSHAKEN BASTARD CARVED THIS INTO THE GROUND BY ME?!!! "This is where Captain Dan lost his anal virginity." I CHALLENGE WHOEVER IT WAS TO SINGLE COMBAT AFTER THE BATTLE OF DALPOK! '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

Excellent work on the raid! The Captain would will that it continue, except that since there's no way to really occupy a village due to the presence of the shamen. There's also been a flood of new crew members (at the rate of 1-2 a day) since the clans feature was upgraded. To encourage further additions to the ranks, and so the Natives in Wicksick and Raktam don't start thinking that the Scurvy Crew is a "Dalpok problem" we're going to take advantage of our new numbers and start attacking other villages. Two weeks is long enough for a raid anyhow. The Captain is open to suggestions as to which should be our next target. Something with an established group of defenders (like the Wicksick Headhunters or Raktamites) would seem most likely.- Captain [http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=242 Tyler Whitney]

A possibility that has been brought up by members of the crew who shall remain nameless is that the Scurvey Crew's next raid should be an outsider village. Why? Because we're pirates. Yar... This would have a large effect on the crew and relations between pirates and outsiders as a whole. Many crew members who have only recently signed up might be less willing to attack their outsider cousins than the stinking natives. Attacking York or Deby would also make it more difficult for any pirate to travel or trade there. The Captain wills that the matter be opened to debate within the crew.

It has also been suggested that we start charging protection money from villages we don't raid, or that we continue raiding them until we are paid. The Captain has already grown quite fond of this idea, but would like to hear from the rest of the crew. There are other matters to consider, such as (most importantly) how much do we charge? Which representatives will pay us and who will collect the loot? In true pirate fashion the Captain would collect and distribute whatever booty collected, but how would we decide on each pirate's share? Discuss... -Captain [http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=242 Tyler Whitney]

:Perhaps in true pirate fashion, the Captain could divvy out an arbitrary amount in advance to each pirate, or pay each pirate for their service upon the initiation of village-pillaging activities. After that, pillaging would continue until locals have given the Captain enough gold to persuade him to call off the raid. So if one local wanted to cover for all the rest, they could pay a full amount. If no local wanted to pay, the raid would continue until the Captain got bored. A friendly pirate crew might give advance warning, e.g., "we're going to raid York next Friday, and kill everyone in the Colonial Police, unless the Captain receives 45 gc by Thursday midnight..." --[[User:Tycho44|Tycho44]] 07:53, 15 June 2006 (BST)

I have asked this on the page, but do I count as a senior member? I believe that I fought harder then most in Dalpok, only being beaten by the Captain and equaled with Wolverine. I would not fail you, and would not require any reward for my service. I am a Surgeon, I know, but... you decide Captain...

I belive it is wrong to upset the Pirate/Outsider balance. It would be stupid and unnescary to annoy such powerful adversarys. Natives r one thing, but outsiders... It would be silly.

'''Captain Dan/ Surgeon'''

== Pirate on Pirate crime Policy ==

Garr, does the captain have a policy regarding fellow pirates who slaughter our crew? --b4ll54ck kill3r

Why do you ask? '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

I was killed by ICDFIFiringSquad, a fellow pirate. '''b4ll54ck kill3r'''

The mangy dog be back? I fought I took all the fight out of him when I ripped his balls off in our previous encounter. Just ignore em, and kill em if yee can! '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

I'd normally say Pirate v. Pirate brawling is between the two pirates but ye have liberty to murder Firingsquad if ye wish it. -The Captain.

October 24, 2006 - James Norrington had the dastardly nerve to attack me in the hold of our very own ship.

http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=4997

I encourage all good Strumpet men to seek this man out and kill him.

== A Bounty on my Head? ==

I had just reached York, and some guy called oden147(not sure if the number is right) attacked me saying there me a bounty on my here head. Any one got any imfomation on this? '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

:See [[Order of Patriots#Bounties]]. According to [[Talk:Order_of_Patriots|the talk page]], [http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=1467 oden184] claimed your kill and was paid for it. — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] ([[User talk:Elembis|talk]]) 19:37, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

== Dalpok Raid ==

I didn't know if we should keep this tally as part of the crew's history or not. If anyone wanted to see how many each crewmember has killed they could always just look at their profile so it seemed less important. In any case each raid's total will be a permenant part of the main page.

Just set this up so we could keep track of how many natives we get on THIS trip to Dalpok. Put your count next to your name. Captain Dan/Surgeon

Tyler Whitney: Total is now five with many more bloodied in the night.

== Before the raid ==
Be sure to check out the next Pirates of the Carribbean movie. If only to improve your pirate vocabulary, savvy?

During the last raid several pirates hid in the high grass west of Dalpok to pounce on the village like lions in the savanna before withdrawing at the end of the day. The benefits of this were that it would take a dedicated tracker to follow the footsteps back to a bloody, sleeping pirate. This of course means one must spend more ap charging into the village and withdrawing each day but it usually means fewer pirate deaths. The Captain only died two or three times during the entire Dalpok raid!

It also be the Captain's will that the crew use wandering shamans (shamen?) exclusively during this raid to cut down on time spent running through the jungle.

== Raiders ==

Wondering if you fellows would like to subscribe to this umbrella group? All we live for is organizing raids on Natives and stealing their gold! --[[User:Maestro Raider|Maestro Raider]] 18:20, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Tis not my place to say, but it twould be rude not to respond. I'm sure that the Captain would be pleased to have your group as an alliance or something of the likes. Please wait for the Captain to respond before making any assomtions, but I'm pretty sure he would welcome the friendship. Captain Dan/Surgeon

== Congratulations for killing Foo Fighter ==

Captain Dan managed to kill me yesterday, after I chopped him down to 30 HP and fell asleep for some reason. When he logged in, he payed me back in the same currency and sent me to the spirits. My congratulations for that one. Maybe the captain may mention as well that he got chopped down short time afterwards by a fellow headhunter, Crotchbat, who had followed my newsgroup warcry.--[[User:Foo Fighter|Foo Fighter]] 16:43, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Its good to see some civilised brutal killers amongsted the natives. My congratulations to Crotchbat. He is a continuing nuisance and a worthy foe, and so is my nest target. I hope to see ye both in Wiksik. And yes I was cut down, but death is nothing to me. I fight for the pure reason to die and come back to fight for the crew. '''Captain Dan/Surgeon''' Let it be known, I am no Captain. I serve Tyler Whitney and the rest of the crew, and do not wish to be Captain.

Well, if we want to go into technicalities - I am not the fucking leader of the WickSick Headhunters; we are egalitarian and go to great lengths to avoid leaders. Thank you. --[[User:Foo Fighter|Foo Fighter]] 17:48, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I avoid being called a Captain because I am not and I have no wish to be. And if ye wish to be using language like that, save it for the raid, ye rumless, monkey fucking native. '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

There is a difference between swearing and calling someone a sodomist, but you don't seem to get it. --[[User:Foo Fighter|Foo Fighter]] 12:18, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

I have no idea what sodomist is, but I'll take as an insult. I'll see you in Wiksik. '''Captain Dan/Surgeon'''

== Pirate drawing ritual in Wiksik ==

That was very cute natives... I am a little disappointed that things seem to have gotten personal between certain members and their native counterparts. We do not hold anything against the natives personally. They are merely our natural prey. After all, what peace can there be between sheep and lions? As for rarely seeing us, well wiksik isn't exactly a thriving metropolis. Hardly anybody seems to be lingering outside and most of the huts are empty. That's not quite the experience we had in Dalpok where there were over a dozen natives lingering at the shaman or around the village at any given time. The goal of Scurvy Crew raids is also not one of occupation, merely murder and plundering. Crewmembers are encouraged to pounce on the natives, then withdraw back into the jungle to spend the rest of the day drinking rum and sharpening their cutlasses. This might explain to the easily confused why there's no permenant Scurvy Crew presence in the village. - [http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=242 The Captain]

A pity you deleted all of the ritual, so the context of your letter will remain unknown. We never expected you to occupy Wiksik. The purpose was to attract and kill more of your kind, since we got a bit bored. And it just worked well, seeing how one of your underlings fell to the machete of Wambayak yesterday and yourself to my machete today. --[[User:Foo Fighter|Foo Fighter]] 09:50, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

== The Case of Mr. Badhammer ==

Stoertebecker says "Tyler Whitney. You are the respected leader of a good clan, but yet you host a zerger using the names 'Badhammer' withing your ranks. Continue to do so and none of your deeds will get any recognition." (2006-06-15 14:01)
Stoertebecker says "http://shartak.forumsplace.com/message176.html" (2006-06-15 14:02)
Stoertebecker says "Correct your clan before others have to do it." (2006-06-15 14:02)

The Captain does not generally respond favorably to threats, and questions any foreign influence's authority to punish a member of the crew. Still, he is appreciative that the multiple character abuse of Mr. Badhammer has been brought to light, evidence has been provided, and the Crew has been given an opportunity to address the matter themselves before any other action is taken. If one were to recall all previous announcements of the clan at no time was zerging promoted or encouraged. Captain Whitney would normally decide that this was a personal offense to be corrected by the parties assaulted by the zerg, but since it was done during an official raid of The Scurvy Crew putative measures shall be taken.

== MR. BADHAMMER!! ==

You are hereby stripped of your rank as Quartermaster until such time as you can demonstrate the removal of the zerg and after a reasonable period of good conduct. You are henceforth demoted to the rank of Able Bodied Seaman. You are also commanded to report to the deck of the Strumpet by Saturday morning to be flogged, 50 lashes with the cutlass. If you do not report to the deck any member of the Crew has liberty to kill Mr. Badhammer once, but only once. If one examines him and discovers that another member of the crew has already punished him he is to remain unharmed. In any case it is recomended that Mr. Badhammer report to the Strumpet for his lashes to preserve his own, and The Scurvy Crew's, reputation and honor. After which this matter shall be considered concluded and Mr. Badhammer will be free to rejoin the crew and resume his duties of drinking, plundering, and murder. Any further retaliation against Mr. Badhammer by any agent shall be considered an offense against the Scurvy Crew as a whole. If Mr. Badhammer continues his zerging he shall be expelled from the Scurvy Crew in disgrace.

It is the Captain's wish that this matter set precedent for the punishment of any similar offences. Evidence must be provided, and the Crew given opportunity to administer their own discipline.

Mr. Cath, the Sailing Master, has informed the Captain that Mr. Badhammer reported to the deck of the Strumpet and has taken his lashes. With this offense now punished the case of Mr. Badhammer shall be considered closed. If any member of the crew sees fit to give Mr. Badhammer a pint of rum to ease his suffering the Captain will look the other way...

I, Badhammer, of th' hell born strumpet, 'ave taken m' lashes. then i got good n drunk on rum t' f'rget that i had let down m' cap'n. at some point in th' night, i b'lieve th' 12th bottle o' rum, i cut off m' left hand and threw it to Mr. Cath an' offered him a hand whenever 'e needs one. i drank some more rum, asked for a cirgeon an' passed out a bloody drunken wreck of a pirate. i woke th' next day, to have found squidgey, th' killer, had hit me for 3 damage and informed me that i now had a rusty meathook for my left hand. th' next day captain dan, fixed me up wit' a real surg-ery. OI! he even gave m' different attachment fer m' hand. a cutlass, a hook, a harpoon, a knuckle duster. I have paid fer m' crime. An' m' crew will not be let down, i will kill more natives in the wiksik raid than any of you. even if i have to stay there for a month, oh yes, there will be blood. when the raid is over, i will talk wit' th' cap'n about getting my job back as quartermaster.--[[User:Badhammer|Badhammer]] 13:39, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

OI!!! cap'n can I get m' job back as Quartermaster? i took m' punishment an' i rallied the lot o' th' crew into the pillagin' dogs o' war we be. an my cutlass be loyal t' yer orders. i am more scurvy of a dog than jus' an able bodied sea man, i be a master o' quarters an such. yarrr. i be seein ye' at new toruga mate.--[[User:Badhammer|Badhammer]] 04:45, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Bring the Crew 5 ears of native pirate-killers and you can resume your former duties. Ears in this case being links to their profiles demonstrating they kill pirates and the standard timestamps proving you killed them. There'll be plenty of opportunities for this in Dalpok or anywhere else you wish to go.-[http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=242 The Captain]

== Natives Killed List: Wicksick Raid ==

'''Tyler Whitney:''' The Captain, in what can only be described as an act of thrilling heroics, slew [http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=1093 Foo Fighter] just as he was about to finish off Mr. Kill, the Cabin Boy. In real-time!! With Mr. Kill down to his last four hitpoints and Foo Fighter with a full 85! The Captain is more than pleased to mark this as his sixth kill of the Wicksick Raid.

It seems the Wicksick Antidote Trust is guided less by a chief than by an even more uncivilized "communal" existence. As such Foo Fighter is merely one of the more active members. Not that this should interrupt our toasting his death...

== The Captain comes to... ==
I apologize for my recent absence, I was distracted by visions of a zombie apocalypse far in the future brought on by a particularly sharp blow to the head from an elephant. Details can be found here: [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/BBB Blackmore Bastard Brigade]. I would ask that all crewmembers immediately report in including their general location (don't be too specific, unfriendly eyes are watching) and important events of the past couple weeks. I'd specifically ask that instances of violence between the Royal Expedition and the Scurvy Crew be reported including which parties initiated hostilities in each instance. If possible I might ask for a blanket pardon for all clans involved so that we can restart things on the right footing. We're all outsiders after all and this whole deal was started with the best intentions.

I was going to move the New Tortuga bit beneath the 2nd Dalpok raid bit but the Wicksick raid painting looks so goddamn good at the top of the page...

The violence against the Royal's was my doing. Gandhi and LessthenLethal caused me personal offense. I take full responsability for my own and any of the crews actions as I laid down the first stroke. '''Captain Dan'''

How exactly did they offend anyway? And you weren't the first, I got pked by an outsider my first visit to the island.

They insulted my honour and they probably killed you as I killed 2 of them. '''Captain Dan'''

== Ceasefire rejected, eh? ==

I can understand why you rejected the ceasefire, Captain. I do, however, request a clarification. In your upcoming raid, am I to understand that you will only be attacking members of the Pirate Hunters and the Order of Patriots? You will not be attacking members of the Colonial Police or non-aligned Yorkmen?

== Threat on JRG Treasurer ==

My Treasurer Zom-vld has brought me proof that one of your crew members named Xintlaer told other crewmembers that they should kill him. Zom escaped with little harm. I request to know why one of my men was attacked. If crew members of the Strumpet have a beef with JRG crew members they can be directed to me or the PDF. We will happily discuss any disputes.--[[User:Michael edwards|Michael edwards]] 15:35, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

===A couple of points===

Firstly, the RE declared their hospital a safezone only to non-combattants, and attacked several combattants who tried to seek shelter there. They also joined in the fighting right at the end, and slew several retreating mercenaries in the jungle.

Secondly, the Scurvy Crew and the JRG were asked to join the raid by the Guild, although they needed little persuasion.

but yes, otherwise an excellent article and a great idea! --[[User:The Order Of Patriots|The Order Of Patriots]] 18:50, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, we did ask the JRG (not sure about the SC, maybe The Malice did...). For once someone actually put something down that isn't blatantly pro-York, which is a miracle - everything now seems to just be crap spouted by the OOP --[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 11:04, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Men it seems that the Mercs guild needs some help down in york.(Check the talk page for the details) As such I've pleged JRG support. This will not be an offical raid nor for the long haul, Just go down to york and kill as many yorkers as you can before they get you. I know this is sudden But i'm going to offer a 3 gold bounty for every Yorker you can prove you killed, To help sweeten the pillage--[[User:Michael edwards|Michael edwards]] 01:14, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Arr! The Mercenary's Guild are fine wholesome men with much in common with corsair folk - they may not be scintillating and engaging conversationalists, but they not be shy on slitting throats with rusty knives! This talk of death and gore puts sparkle in me bloodshot eyes and fire in me skanky loins! Or is that the other way about? I'm in Irony Bay but will stop peeing into Wiksik skulls, aft about, call me shipmates to arms, and be on me way! Last man to use the Colonial Police hut as a head can clean me arse (poor bastard)! - {{profile|4770|First Amongst Daves}}

== History ==
Mr. Michael C. Edwards crashed into the isle of Shartak along with every other [[pirate]]. While not a violent fellow at heart he traveled the island with hopes of being a merchant. He traveled to Durham and was given the respect a man such as him needed. He left the town thinking that all outsiders were kind.
Oh how wrong he was!
Mr. Edwards, while traveling to [[York]], was brutally attacked and killed, just for being a pirate! After the attack, Mr. Edwards began to hate most outsiders and natives now he preys upon them.
Won't you help him?

== The PDF ==
Please check our talk page for our wanted Pirate Pker list.
Report all murders on the wiki to Rozen or me.

'''Message to all PDF squad members. Before you kill a wanted man you must alert him and the peoples around him.'''

== Goals ==
You may be wondering what our goals are. We want to be the best pirates we can be and foster a working relationship with outsiders (who are also welcomed to the clan).
People from anti-pirate towns like York need not apply.
The Jolly Roger Gang will '''NEVER''' attack or cause mayhem in [[Durham]].

== The Book of the Skull ==

The Book of the Skull is the doctrine and rules by which all Jolly Roger Gang members follow. Any member who breaks these rule will recieve 40 slashs of a cutlass.

1.
'''York'''
The Town of York is the center of all anti-pirate groups.
As such it is an enemy to all pirates. Any Yorkman you find should be swiftly killed. Do not trust a Yorkman who says they are friendly, as soon as you turn your back they will gut you

2.
'''Durham'''
The Town of Durham should never be attacked by pirates, any pirate who does attack is a mutineer and should be delt with as such. The laws of Durham should be followed while in Durham. If they ask you to not kill a Yorkman wait till he is in the jungle to slit his neck.

3.
'''Derby'''
The Town of Derby is neither friend nor foe.
The peoples of Derby should be dealt with on a case by case basis. peoples of Derby on the whole mean little harm.

4.
'''Issues of Rum'''
Rum is God's gift to pirates. As such all pirates should partake in this fine drink. A Pirate should carry Rum with him into battle to help soothe his wounds.

5.
'''The Cutlass'''
All pirates should carry at least three Cutlasses into battle. The Cutlass is a raiding pirates best friend.

6.
'''Mutineers'''
A Mutineer is a pirate Pker
Any pirate who attacks his own people is the lowest form of life. A mutineer is a pirate who has no Loyality or Honor. Due to this fact he should be killed in the most brutal fashion.

7.
'''The PDF'''
The PDF is in place to stop Mutinners. All Pirates can report a Pker to the PDF safely. All PDF members must give the Mutineer the right to know that they are wanted men for Pking.( It IS more than they deserve however but The JRG works with Honor.)

8.
'''Meetings'''
The Jolly Roger Gang is always opened to talks with other clans.
However from York we will only talk to the CP. In-game talks will be held in netrual settings(Most likely Shark,Storybook,New Tortuga) Island.

9.
'''Pirates'''
The Jolly Roger Gang By default is an ally of all upstanding Pirate clans.( eg. The Strumpet, Pirate captians crew etc.) And if need be the JRG will aid pirates without question

10.
'''Secret Hiding spot of Zeff's Pants'''
No Jolly Roger Gang Member will every give the whereabouts of where we hid Zeff's Pirate hunting pants!!!. It took a long time to train that monkey...

11.
'''Peaceful clans and peoples'''
Clans which support peace (ex. Open Arms) Or people who do not kill outsiders,natives or pirates will never be harmed by JRG members when it can be helped.

== Landmarks ==

Within the pirate lands we have many a strange and wonderful...ah...wonder. The JRG has given names to some of these wonderful wonders.
( Names to come as soon as I iron out the details.)

He has since slit the quivering throat of the churlish Captain Hallister, a pompous rogue of York, with a fine edge of steel and sent him to Hell to meet his wormy decomposing ancestors. Presently en route north back to the shipwreck, west of some grasslands, haunted by the pitiful ghost of Hallister.

Beware the native warrior {{profile|1360|Kepple}}. {{profile|4862|Rozen}} has already met his fate once at this man's hands. A gold coin to the pirate who can find him for me. I have a blood feud with this native.

Why do you say you're going to kill Natives too? Reading your life story, they didn't do anything to you. And let me get this right, you're killing all outsiders, but you're also trying to start a healthy alliance with them AND they're welcome in your clan?

Hey, pirates are all the same. They claim they're peacable folk at heart, then ask if you want to join them on their next pillaging spree. And views such as "People from anti-pirate towns like York need not apply" are why we had to drive those dastardly brigands from our fair city in the first place. --[[User:The Order Of Patriots|The Order Of Patriots]] 16:41, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Yorkers are the turds of the devil. They have sex with common livestock, including chickens, in the sad hope of producing magical chimera, blow their noses into the palms of their hands because snot is their currency, and eat small children in demonic ceremonies at midnight. I will not rest until I have used the mouth of every Yorker as a repository for my urine, and the throat of every Yorker as a scabbard for my blade.

'''WANTED - DEAD.''' (Add more when you find more)

{{profile|4401|Sreath123}} - Small time PKer, we've been trading blows since i got on the island. I've killed him a few times, he's kiled me once.

Killed Sreath 123 on 13 Sept 2006 - {{profile|4770|First Amongst Daves}}

Burchill - NOT CONFIRMED. Widespread rumour and an entry in Long Fin's profile, probably a PKer but the jury is still out.

{{profile|1594|Long Fin Kille}} - VERY DANGEROUS, KILL ON SIGHT. He's got over 150 pirate kills, very dangerous, dont sleep near him or he'll slit your throat. If you kill anyone, make it Long Fin. He's never killed me, but not for lack of trying, and over 150 good pirates have died by his hands.

{{profile|5006|Ciberwolf}} - Killed LePreto outside the traders hut. An enemy of the JRG.

{{profile|1186|Henry Morton Stanley}} - a protector of natives and an avowed pirate hunter. Last spotted west near Movan on 11 Sept 2006, where he killed First Amongst Daves.

{{profile|1776|a nobleman}} - Killed Lucidiots on the camp. Alleged PKer.

{{profile|1067|japani}} - stupid profile, and 4 kills. Was killed by Long Fin Kille, no honor amoung PKers then.

{{profile|2829|petey}} - Attacked me and called the clan gay, I think he needs to be killed, numerous times. - {{profile|4862|Rozen}}

{{profile|3065|Grimmig}} - Big time PKer.

Remember - It doesn't matter if you've already killed them, that just means they'll look for you now. KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL and KILL them some more.

Regrettably i will be unable to join in the raid on Dalpok today.

A raid on Dalpok says you? A change in the wind says I! The Scurvy Crew will be more than eager to once more flood the dirt paths of Dalpok with blood. The fact that this might be the one of the first instances of multiple clans agreeing on an act only sweetens the rum!

I have noticed the pirates have set up the [http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/Raiders Raiders] as a conglomerate of pirates. Why don't the order create a similar grouping, a 'U.N.' of anti-pirate clans and those unfavourably inclined to certain pirate groups?

:The Order already provides financial, material and military support to a variety of groups who have similar aims to ours. Many of our members have other clan commitments too and were invited into the Order as recognition of their good work, and thus we see ourselves already as providing an umbrella group for righteous causes. --[[User:The Order Of Patriots|The Order Of Patriots]] 17:19, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

==Mercenaries Guild==
Hello OOP. I feel the persecution of the Mercenaries Guild is very unjust and un-patriotic. What reasons are there to promote the killing of Mercenaries? We work for money, not malicious intent and that means we could work for you or the CP.
Why do you seek to harm us?--[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 23:38, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Killing for money is a dastardly, criminal pursuit that has no place in a civilised society. The Order is trying to create and maintain a safe York where honest citizens need not live in fear of pirate attacks, terrorist outrages, or being killed ''simply because someone put money on their head.'' Also, as noted on our main page, the Guild has been implicated in pirate violence around York (to quote Tom Failur, the infamous 'Butcher of York' - "I will return to York and kill again, as I am ''being paid to do it.''"), and has undeniably been responsible for the prescence of several notorious pirates within our fair city. This is unnaceptable behaviour, and we wish to outlaw these barbaric practices from our province. --Order of Patriots, 13:11 8 July 2006

"or being killed ''simply because someone put money on their head.''" is this not '''exactly''' the same as putting a bounty on someone's head for a reason or another? Even is something happened by accident, or otherwise was not intentional? Your contradiction is quite startling and shockingly "unacceptable"--[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 18:12, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

So you're not denying that Tom Failur was a Guild member, or that his rampages through York were Guild business, and specifically targeted those whom the Guild wanted dead? --Order of Patriots, 23:15 9 July 2006

Bah, forgive my very, very late reply. I only just got my internet back.
Anyway - no, I'm not denying Tom went on a rampage. Guild business? Yes, it was a job. People the Guild want dead? No, it was people our '''contractor''' wanted dead, not the MCG. But we are mercenaries. We do not hold a grudge against York or its people, but if someone pays us, we do their job. We don't cost alot (unless its especially hard) so many people can hire us. Could you please stop WBHazen from killing me - the MCG is '''not''' "anti-york", we are pro-hirer.--[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 23:59, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

I was being paid to kill those people so I killed them. Since the job has finished I have not harmed a single York citizen. I understand that you are dedicated to defending York so your hostility towards us is understandable. But you must understand that we are not a threat to you or citizens of York. So if you kill us surely you are no better than the murderers you wish to stop? We come to York with peaceful intent and we are killed by those who are trying to make the streets safe. Surely we can put our past disagreements behind us.--[[User:Tom Failur|Tom Failur]] 14:01, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Came with peaceful intent? You came and slaughtered all who stood within your way, as did several other guild members, such as Raffles. As you noted the Order is '''dedicated''' to defending the people of York. And allowing them to live in fear of being hunted down for the bounty on their heads hardly comes under that heading. We wish for York to become a safehaven for all the peoples of Shartak, which is exactly why we have to keep murderers, pillagers, and unprincipled thugs out of our town. --[[User:The Order Of Patriots|The Order Of Patriots]] 16:09, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Well I can see that you are never going to accept us as the buisinessmen that we are so I will be saying goodbye until the money brings us once agin back to York. I hope that if you ever are in need of extra muscle you won't hesitate to contact us. We will gladly accept. We don't bear grudges like you.--[[User:Tom Failur|Tom Failur]] 19:28, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree Tom, though I've been in York for almost all my Shartak life, these "Patriots" are not going to turf me out yet.
If they have evidence of '''me''' killing ''anyone'' in York, or even on the whole island in the last '''2 months''' then I would like them to present it. Oh, and as for bounties - you yourself place bounties on peoples' heads! How contradictary--[[User:HVLD|HVLD]] 21:08, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey, any chance you can put up a section on this wiki to report crimes? I posted on the PK thread and nothing yet. I was hoping you guys could help. He is Stoertebecker [ http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=1553 ] and i'd like to see him dead. He killed me, then attacked me the very same day after I resurrected (and that, my friend, is not very sportsmanlike, PKer or not).

[http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=1327 Tom Failur], the 'Butcher of York', known murderer and scallywag, was executed by the [http://wiki.shartak.com/index.php/Order_of_Patriots Order of Patriots] last night. Despite having slain over 20 yorkmen without warning or provocation, Tom was quietly removed from the CP's Most Wanted list, and has in fact been aided by them when attacked by a native nearby. Why was he not apprehended and despatched before these atrocities could happen? Clearly the time is long overdue for right-thinking citizens of York to take matters into their own hands!

I must say I was shocked when I was helped after I had killed so many York citizens. I was also quietly disaapointed to be removed from the wanted list. It does seem like the CP is not able to enforce law and order in York. However death isn't the end. I will return to York to kill again as I am being paid to do it. I'm sure we will meet agin.--[[User:Tom Failur|Tom Failur]] 12:51, 1 June 2006 (BST)
