Shore Leave

The Crew has inflicted much violence on the village of Dalpok. The total body count is uncertain (few have posted their exploits below) but estimates say that dozens of natives fell to the crew's cutlasses. As such, and because the Sailing Master and other members of the crew complained that the workmanship of their cutlasses was suspect so that they were resorting to spitting and pummeling the natives to death, the Captain is now satisfied in calling the raid a success. All members of the crew in the area have liberty to kill as many more as they like before returning to the strumpet for their rations of grog, or further exploring the island as they will while the Captain and senior crew discuss the location of the next raid.

Current goals be:

  • Crew the ship: The Hell-born Strumpet (the bonniest ship in whatever ocean the island's in)
  • Terrorize the locals
  • Pursue the elusive three-headed monkey
  • Rum
  • Keelhauling
  • Wenches
  • Plunder
  • Grog

The Code of The Scurvy Crew

  • 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 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.

They are invited to enjoy their shore leave with those who participated in the raid as the Captain and senior crewmembers deliberate on the location of our next raid.

Thanks go to Dr J for his spelunking.

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 puntitive 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.

additon by Anne Bonney not knowing how else to communicate what has occurred see http://www.shartak.com/profile.cgi?id=1553 Stortebecker is a pirate killer, he has killed an even dozen - including most recently our little 'borntokill' - and as such I killed him. I know nothing of the badhammer case.

As the man said:

"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."
