*Network Special ----------------- Well, in the last edition of Network Special, we have reported about the secret diary from Francis Drake, but there is still something missing, for sure! This can only mean a total description how to become such a glorious pirate! We'll now start a new 'do it yourself' creation... [Ed.: No mastrubating!] The first assumptions should be: *Young enough, dynamic and successful. *Witty and charmeful. *Courageous and not married. *Perversion and to be horney should be congential. *Rum should not defeat you. *Be sure, not to be sea-sick. *Don't be soft, condomes are useless.. That were the first conditions you might bring with you... If not skilled in any form, you should better press the button... If you think you can become a pirate, then leave the computer now and visit a local sail-school, in order to learn about navigation and other sea-crap... Now you know the unessential facts about piratism, [£]^< but please lay your sword aside ;<=>?for a couple of minutes, because we want to educate you in the essential facts about the glory to be a pirate. Now you are ready to read (& excecute) the important part of this 'do it..' action... First of all you should know about the mercantile part of piratism. ------------ It's useful to take a closer look at the second-hand-ship-market. Very important is:*Leaky [yes/no] *Cannons [yes/no] *Sails [yes/no] *Control [Auto/man] *Wood [good/bad] *Size [S/M/L/XL/XXL] *Extra [normal/lux] Our tip for you. *Leaky..............[no, 2 years TUEF] *Cannons.[yes,as much as it can carry] *Sails..............[yes, very useful] *Control...[Manual, 6 gears + 2 backs] *Wood......[Good, but metal is better] *Size................[XXL=War-Galeone] *Extras.[Delux, with warm pool,toilet, refrigerator, lay-'em down seats...] Buy a parrot: [Checklist] -------------------------- *Color *Size [Head and body] *Male or female *Memory [size of head, up to 1MB] *Fly able [?] *Speaks languages [interpretation] *Healthy [?] If you want the parrot to speak, then learn the language from parrots and tell him that you want him to speak, or have a nice diner in the evening! ...It works, indeed! [Ed.: Parrot for diner, you know?] -------------------------------------- And now the useful protection against the not windy periode... ^ Buy slaves for ruddering! ---------------------------- A little tip: Buy slaves in Europe! Expensive but powerful... -------------------------------------- But there are still some things to buy or to be plundered. -License to sail............[ha,ha,ha] -License to kill [You have it already] -A pretty girl to f++k. [For CALT/GFT] -Buccaneers............[Who loves you] -Rum and beer.......[For the evenings] -Weaponary...........[Useful to fight] -Galeons-figure.....[For the horniest] -Chains...............[For the slaves] -and what ever you want, if you have enough money.... For more informations write to: Keyword:'Do it yourself' 666 Pirate-Island Caribic-Ocean ^ press 'F7' or move Another point is that you have to organize the crew. (Buccaneers are useful, but take a look at their qualifications...) For example:-Jason is a professional sailraiser... -Bitnapper a good look-out -Venice keeps the plunder. -Croon is Torture-king.. -Brix is cannonier.. -A-Bomp is navigator.... You see, that it's not useful to have fighters. There must be a cook, to make sure not to die of starvation... -------------------------------------- Well, you should think about a good place to hide, because it's not wise to anchor in a harbour all the time.. Use a little island and build up a pirate-tavern (Striptease,Beer contest and parties..). But think twice, you should not search for an island in our waters, because our pirates are always hungry on fresh meat and new ships... We don't care about you having the big fleet. We have the experience in fighting and boarding. Also plundering and sinking is our speciality. -------------------------------------- Make sure to get your buccaneers educated in handling a cannon or a big pirates pistol.... Our tip: Fill the gun with a load of -------- powder and a well-sized [M] cannonball and try to blast bottles away. There should be 200-300 meters between you and the bottle... But drink it before shooting. Make sure to buy enough powder and matches to light it up... Our tip: Test the Look-out in reading -------- big and small letters. So you can figure out the blind ones who couldn't see a ship standing infront of them... Remember: It's useful to buy a pirate- --------- flag, too! Just because it will make the other sailours frightend... Now it's time to leave the computer again to buy all the things we have written down on the pages before... You have one month time for the organization and we'll see you in the second episode of this 'do it ...'! We'll continue with some technical details about fighting and plundering. -Flim Flam & PJD
