Well, Halloween is almost here, which begs the question,"Who is the best pirate out there?"

The question is "Who do you think should win the treasure chest and Why?" Please explain in your post.

Sparrow and Locke should team up.

Personally I'd say Jack Sparrow. Locke, while funny, isn't exactly the most terrifying of mortals, while Hook just didn't strike me as anything special. I haven't seen Talespin, so no opinion there.

Totally Jack Sparrow. He rocks and reminds me of Tuomas Holopainen.

Hmm, here is my synopsis:

Being all piratey and aggressive, Locke would jump right in and attack whoever he wishes. During Locke's aggressive attacking, Sparrow (being part coward and unwilling to put himself in risk in favor of riches) will sneak around and go directly for the chest. The remaining pirate will most likely do the same or attack Sparrow directly.

If Locke were to first attack Hook, chances are he would win. Now remember this: Hook lost to an army of small children! (That is... from my memory) Hook and his trained and efficient crew couldn't even win against measly little children. With this in mind, Hook lacks any real strategic strength or abilities. Meaning Locke would most likely wipe the floor with him. That is... if he is good with a sword. Other than that Locke seems to be more... versatile with multiple weapons ranging from water balloons, asparagus, and teeth .

I haven't seen tailspin in years so I don't know what would happen.

Lets say that Sparrow does go to the chest, he would most likely meet up with the remaining pirate. If it was Hook, Sparrow would probably try to talk out of it. If anything he is very good with a sword so he could win. Not to mention he is very creative unlike Hook.

My opinion, Hook would most certainly loose given his inability to defeat children. Sparrow has a high chance of winning through his skill and creativity and sheer luck. Locke is crazy, I wouldn't say he'd come on top. I have no idea about the last one.

I reject your realities and substitute my own!

No-one should win any treasure. The chest should be empty.

Karnage should win because he's got the coolest accent.

I vote for the dread pirate Roberts.

Among the four, though, I wouldn't really care as long as it wasn't Hook. I have a particular lack of faith in Hook's piracy skills.

They'll always remember this as the day they ALMOST beat Jack Sparrow.

I think Jack Sparrow would win, mostly due to his seemingly infinite amounts of sheer luck. That, and he's a very talented swordfighter. The end.

Locke.

I'm not basing it on who's best with a sword, who can fight well, who's the most pirate-like - I just chose my favourite out of those four.

sparrow, he seems to be the only one with any actual pirating ability. maybe 10 years ago locke could have beat him, but now he cant even buy his own rum!

Captain Don Karnage, because he's got a freaking biplane.

I know who will win! The most unlikely, the most cunning, the most ruthless, skilled, destructive, powerful, and most of all:


She's so cute she melts her enemies!



lol, just another one of my crazy concepts.

Depends what's at stake. If its a treasure chest full of cordial cherries, for example, I could take her guilt-free.

I'm pretty much a cold bitch though.
