Posted: Wed Mar 23, 2005 4:11 am Post subject: Cutlass Isle Tutorial: Beginners' FAQ |
|
|
Remember what it was to first start playing Pirates!? Remember the confusion? The fear? Many of us have become experts since those days, but there are others out there, who are only starting out their careers in the Spanish Main. Rather than knock these beginners on the head and take their gold, the famous pirate Airsaw figured out a better plan: Why not help those beginners along, give them the means to gather up some loot and only then go and whack them over the head to take their gold?
Now, I direct all beginners, and humble experts willing to learn more, to take everything that they can from Airsaw's Beginners' FAQ. _________________ It is much better to be armed with a sword that has two edges than with an estoc [...], which is nothing more than a stick with a point. (Rapier Master G. Morsicato Pallavicini, La Scherma Illustrata, p. 14.)

I don't know what it is Wolf but when I click on the Airsaw link I get a page can't be displayed error and there's nothing there. It also happens on the main page when I click on the link there. Maybe I have a weird browser... _________________

Test.
Didn't work. I tried to change the link to what show in the guide. No luck. _________________ Prince John: Save me, save me! Hurt them, hurt them!

There seems to be some issue with the redirector, I cannot get to any of the guides from the news postings about them, only access to me is from the guide page. Dunno if it's the program, or the programmer. _________________

Weird, the home page link works for me, whereas the one in this thread doesn't. I'll fiddle around with the one in the post above and try to make it work, though.. _________________ It is much better to be armed with a sword that has two edges than with an estoc [...], which is nothing more than a stick with a point.

Thanks Wolfwood for leading me to Airsaw's Beginners FAQ, although I'm new here at Cutlass Isle I'm certainly not a beginner to Pirate's but the FAQ was helpful, insightful and FUNNY! _________________ "Damnation seize my soul if I give any quarter or take any from you"

Why thank you Wolfwood...I think?, I mean I know the word but did you mean calamitous in a good way or negatively speaking??? _________________ "Damnation seize my soul if I give any quarter or take any from you"

Well, considering that we are pirates here, in a good way! _________________ It is much better to be armed with a sword that has two edges than with an estoc [...], which is nothing more than a stick with a point. (Rapier Master G. Morsicato Pallavicini, La Scherma Illustrata, p. 14.) |

The Spanish captain is annoying. The English captain is downright dangerous! |
