So.... you'll work on it and get back to me?

Fraid not. I haven't got access to the inner workings of the forum either, nor do I want it, the fear of causing some sort of catastrophe is too much

This is an Adrian only request...

No wai! That black garb ninjas wear is EXTREMELY flammable! And Pirates sweat like no other. If the chimps just had a bunch of stick, that's one thing... but these sticks are on fire!

The average ninja wouldn't even get touched by the average pirate or average group of chimps with flaming sticks. Ninjas are far too ninja-like to get out-manoeuvred by chimps or pirates. Unless it's less than a ninja we're talking about or super-pirates or super-chimps we're talking about.

Okay.... a ninja is like Batman. A chimp with a flaming stick is like the Joker. There are several Jokers. Batman... is fucked.

Sure, a single chimp might be 'outmaneuvered' by a single ninja. I don't know how many FPS you've played... but do you know how hard it is to outmaneuver a larger force? The ninja would have to be a super ninja just to take two chimps with flaming sticks.

Pirates don't have to dress up in animal clothing and scale "unscalable" walls to take their enemies by surprise... all they need is a little bit of fog. Put in an even fight, a ninja wouldn't even know what to do... but pirates are accustomed to fighting without the advantage of surprise. They'd swab the deck with ninjas.

Awww... you were supposed to say something along the lines of "It shall be done, my queen"

Well hopefully Adrian will like the idea and do it... I could really use that feature

The ninja already is super enough. Besides, the ninja would only have to absolutely kick the ass of enough chimps to make all the other chimps run like fuck because none of them individually want to get their asses kicked so badly.

Ninjas win. Here is my evidence.

[Dotard]

Give the chimps some poo on a stick and they would win everytime.

'Cause everybody will run from you if you have poo on a stick!

[thesummerqueen]

Ninja success is largely based on elements of surprise and invisibility (as in blending into surroundings or the people near them) - clothing and multi-use weapons reflected such values. Pirates didn't need to be so utilitarian; they built ferocious and fantastic reputations around themselves to cause surrender (with as little effort and bloodshed as possible) at or as near as first sight. Psychological warfare at its finest.

So who wins? The guy who makes you shit your pants the second you see his colors fly, or the guy who manages to sneak up close to you dressed as a laborer? I personally think that as soon as poo is involved, the battle is over. Chimps win out of sheer disgusting factor - I think they'd drop the flaming sticks before fire got involved. Crap is much easier to fling and more effective.

Well chimps already had the poo... and if ninjas or pirates wore diving gear, they would be immune to the smell. They needed the flaming sticks in case they ran out of shit to fling, or their enemies were immune

But if the ninja kicked a chimp's ass: it would shit on his foot! There's no way a ninja could be ninja smelling like that!

Only a ninja can beat a ninja! Chimps, pirates.. They are no match for a ninja!

[downbeatplumb]

Pirates have cannons, grenades, pistols, muskets and large weapon platforms (ships). They win because of the amount of long range death dealing they bring to the table.

They are all useless against Ninjas.. How can you fight with something you cannot see? Plus Ninjas have smoke bombs and ninja stars and they don't need a ship becouse they can walk on water...
