Oh, I generated them via http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/deck.php

ah crap, and i was going to surprise you by writing a generator for these kinds of images, srsly :) good thing i didn't get further yet than a few boxes in HTML :)

also, i had a friend staying over yesterday and as he was packing his stuff to leave, i quickly drew a pirate on a piece of cardboard and wrote the text next to it and slipped it into his carrier-bag.

today, on instant messaging, the following discussion took place:

(2008-10-09 18:15:07) Bo: Ben je een piraat?
(2008-10-09 18:15:19) Triplezero: ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
(2008-10-09 18:15:31) Bo: shit zo win ik nooit :)

fuck, I really have to make the german ones and start distributing them. I had better get a german involved so they don't read like some five-year-old wrote them.

I finally passed off my pirate pass-off note, to someone who promptly passed it off to his mom.  :lulz:

So I'm finally about to run a few of these off. Having a pirate-themed party here tonight, a friend will be here soon and help me with the German. It's going to be ridiculous. :D

oh, bump, or something.

I'm gonna do the quoted memebomb thing using some of the top memebombs from the SDO MB Tool.

Party was a bit of a dud but I made some cards, to be uploaded at a later date. Here's the text on one of them (only the "quote" and "source" are different on the other ones):
QuoteDu spielst jetzt PiratenRUMmy! Dein Ziel ist es, diese Karte loszuwerden.

Das geht so:
1. Frage jemanden, ob sie/er ein Pirat ist.
2. Wenn er/sie nicht mit "ARRR" antwortet, gib ihr/ihm die Karte weiter.


"Eine Schlußfolgerung ist einfach der Punkt, wo du aufgehört hast, zu denken!" -Letzte Worte der fürchterlichen Piratin Roberta

Yes, that's right, we called it Pirate RUMmy.

:meh:

I ran some of these off last fall/winter, for an event at my school. Eventually, after getting passed around a lot the cards all got trashed as they landed in the hands of people who have too much of a stick up their ass to play along with a simple game. I need to try again with a group that will be more fun.

We've found it works well to stick the German on one side, and the English on the other. YMMV depending on location, of course.

Where are you located?

I've been told by a native speaker that "Pass den Pirat" doesn't sound so good in German, btw. :X
