Give land lubbers the heave ho on September 19th
Yaaargh! Talk Like A Pirate Day is on the horizon, two points of the larboard bow...
Now I've no idea what a larboard is but spending the day talking a like a pirate and annoying everyone? That floats my boat in a big way. Whilst I'll never match up to Tom Baker's superb legless pirate in Black Adder, I'll have a blood good crack at it. And, to commemorate Talk Like A Pirate Day, MMORPG Pirates of the Burning Sea is getting even more 'piratey', if that be the word...
Last year Flying Lab Software, the team behind Pirates of the Burning Sea teamed up with the creators of this glorious holiday to talk about what they could do to commemorate the event. One thing led to another and the two International Symbols of Pirates Having a Good Time are thus now immortalized in the game. Every year around September 19th you’ll find Cap’n Slappy and Ol’ Chumbucket handing out missions throughout the Caribbean for all players.
Those joining for a bit of rum and keelhauling will have the chance to party, talk piratical talk, and be given a very special reward, never before seen within Pirates of the Burning Sea.
