Four Years on Shartak

[FirstAmongstDaves]

Its just suddenly occurred to me that I started my habit of virtual mass murder on 5 August 2006, meaning that I have been slaughtering natives, Yorkers, and the odd other person by accident, for one year shy of half a decade.

So far I have died 193 times (often by tigers, damned are their stripey hides), and have killed 167 natives and 143 outsiders.

I look at the scars on my face and the caked blood on my hands, and sigh deeply.

Such grief, anguish and frustration I must have generated for these long, murderous years.

I publically apologise for this very poor form, and resolve to mend my ways.

Henceforth, instead of having a ratio of 1.6 kills per death, I resolve to lift my game to a ratio of 2 kills per death.

I'm sorry to have let so many people down, including teenaged boys who regard me as their hero, and nubile women who regard me somewhat more saucily.

Thank you.

Huzzah!

Well then? How about a toast for one of Shartak's most consistent members? It takes a lot of dedication to remain loyal to a game in this far reaching corner of the internet. Four cheers for FAD!

Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip (suffers a ceremonial machete lunge accompanied with high velocity blood at the hands of FAD).

(Zen leaks blood at the corners of his mouth) D... Damnit. Should have seen that coming. FAD, you magnificent manipulator... (Zen hides the "magical" ketchup packets at the heart of his theatrics before being dragged offstage)

Nearly missed this because I don't look at the pirate stuff much.

Congratulations Mate!

I'm at about 3.5yrs with my long shutdown alt, or 3yrs with Anthor!

[Neil Tathers]

Dave, why the did you put this thread here?    I almost missed it.

You are Awesome.

You are inspirational.

You are a Powerful Force.

You are such a Thrill to Kill.

It is an honor and a pleasure to rip off your filthy-pirate head and bury you in a shallow grave filled with crabs.

*raises her glass*  Hazzah, My Lord. Hazzah.

Priests?!?!  Don't tell me I'm still stuck on that feck'in island!

Well done Mr Daves
