About This Contest:

First thing that any pirate should know when entering this contest is the winner will be decided by ye mateys ... the pirate with the most votes wins. Simple as stealing buried treasure!

Arrrr, so ye think that you're the greatest pirate on these high seas, do ya? Well, it's time to waive yer jolly roger and show the other seadogs that ye are the master and commander of all that ye see.

Here's yer challenge ... unless yer the chicken of the sea and would rather swab the poop deck.

Make a video of ye living the life of a pirate. This could occur at work, home, school, church, the dentist office, the grocery store - wherever ye want to show landlubbers that being a buccaneer is the best and only way to live. And be sure to do all of this while using yer best Pirate voice.

By the way, being a pirate in a dentist office was a trick. No respectable pirate would set foot within a canon's shot of such a maniacal place. They may plunder your gold teeth faster than ye can say "avast ye mateys!"

The way to win our buried treasure is to run a shot across the bow of yer fellow seadogs to get their support. Based on voting, the winning buccaneer will be determined by yer mateys.

Alas, don't forget to celebrate International Talk Like a Pirate Day on September 19th by visiting the privateers at http://www.talklikeapirate.com!

So what are you waiting for? Heave ho and batten down the hatches! Ye have treasure to pillage in just a fortnight!

And just remember, dead men tell no tales!

Prizes:

Lots and lots of me pirate's booty!
