Piratelympics

Day 14 of the International Pirate Cutlass Authenticity debate:

We have come to a decison. After alot of shouting, plankwalking, eye poking, and a very poorly thought-out karaoke contest, we have decided. In order to qualm the international pirate community, we have decided to hold the first annual piratelympics. Amid many other events, will be several swordfighting competitons. The kind of sword used by the person who wins the most events will be adopted as the offical SwordType of All of Piratedom. The Piratelympics will be hosted here in Pellmellia, becuase of it's rich, piratey traditions. While drawing up the rules, we didn't specify that the person entering has to be a pirate, so, thanks to the internet, any and all swordfighting people are allowed to enter. So far, we have 7 pirates, 2 samurai, a ninja, a clump of knights, and a beekeeper for some reason. This means, that if we pirates do not sweep the events, the offical sword of all piratedom could be not pirately at all!

I'm entering of course, hope to bring home the gold (The grand prize is the golden tooth of that great buckler of swashes, CrimsonBeard the Pretty Awesome. He didn't like us pulling his tooth out, so we waited until he was asleep.) I hope my sword, Slashy McCuttsabunch is up to the task.

Further bulletins as events warrant.
