I'll post a roster at some point of who's already on the crew with their positions, and then people can choose their own positions from there. 

Yay! ;D

Already there I believe, just not officially on the roster.

Am I right DB? (yup the terrible memory strikes again ;D)
The mind is like a parachute, its best when open.

Yes, I'm not requiring anyone to have the Lundegaard guild membership, but would like everyone to have one at some point.  I don't want anyone to feel like they can't do this just because they don't have the membership.

So I went to check out Lundegaard today and wouldn't you know it, the pins are out of stock!

I will join. I think I mentioned the Bosun (boatswain) before, that is what I am interested in.

Might be able to put to use the brushing up I have been doing on my pirate lore since last year now!...

Sleepy! I think this is  GREAT idea! I would love to be on your ship, that is if I can be admiral (j/K) and rage will be whatever..he doesnt care. I so love your ideas for this, if you don't mind, want to get together and chat it up? talk details and such? oooh and we could come up with our own flag!!!! I could design something for it! And I think because you brought this thread to the forum you would be thy captain,its only fair.

Arrrghhhh!!!!

Since there are a lot of us that are Pirates in this area I thought it would be fun to start up a "Pirate crew". Everyone can sign up and state your "abilities" for the ship. Once we get a bunch of people we hold a meetin' and just like in the old days we elect a Captain. The Captain then in turn elects his/her "higher crew members" (first mate, surgeon, gunner, carpenter, ect) by their abilities they signed up under. We then make are own "articles/laws of the ship". And of course we name the ship.
We have almost monthly pub nights, well now we can monthly Pirate meetins' and such. I for one would like to walk around the grounds of fest as part of a pirate party and have a ship to say Im from.
As always the Captain can be out voted if the duties are too becoming of that person, there can always be a mutiny and such or whatever.

I am in the process of making "certificates" of membership and such. We could get our own pin or medallion made for our crew. There could even be initiations (fun type) or something too.

Pipe in your comments and suggestions. I know Luundegaard has something like this but this would be strictly a MN thing for our festival or whatever. Ive always wanted to be part a pirate crew so heres hoping there are people out there too with the same attitude.  ;D

Agreed, Sleepy the Pirate Capt. of MN.

I tried to join Sleepy & DB's crew last summer but because I was not a member there was no way for me to join (at the time, they may have changed that). Regardless of the guild we can still start a crew & ship for our group. Not everyone will or can afford to join the guild.

Already? I looked yesterday and they were sold out, then this morning there were 4 in stock. Quick lil buggers.

I am sticking with DB's ship for now. We had a miscommunication I think with the hackers from the other site where he never got my renmails.

At any rate. You dont need the Luundegard membership to be part of the group, I think the only requirement now is that you renmail DB about posible postions.

Yo ho ho lots of rum for us.
Knight, FOP, Pirate, Woodsman...I am a man of many faces.

Hmmm....  I guess I will not be joining the crew as I stated above some people will not or can not afford to join the guild. I for one tried to join before. I do not want to and can't afford to join the guild now. Yes I realize that you do not have to join the guild to be part of the crew but if we are to join the guild eventually then I am out.

I was looking at this as just something fun to do as a group not an organized group or guild.   

I hope everyone who decides to join has a wonderful time.

I'm sorry i guess i misunderstood the original thread post. i thought you were talking about starting a new pirate ship thing,
not realizing that you meant the lundgaard pirate ship thing that you and DB are on.

Rage

...lol... so LD and I are sitting next to each other on the couch. We both read this thread and then posted but didn't talk to each other till after we posted.

Sorry Sleepy I guess we just had a different idea of what was being started.

??? 

Catching up on topics and I'm way confused.

I know DB & Sleepy had the ship thing going...I know it was with Lundegaard and all, but I thought it didn't require anyone to join at all.

I remember DB's ship from the other forum where he put it on the guild list, but still had people being members of it anyway. It can still be a MN ship and such, but also listed as a Lundegaard guild one too. People who join the guild can join, but people who don't...it'll still be a MN ship none-the-less.

Is that the idea of the topic?

*stares to the stars and hopes for some guidance*

Again, there is no requirement to have the Lundegaard guild membership, that is completely optional.  This is all for fun.  Those that do want it can sign up on the guild roster once they purchase it, if they'd like.
