Welcome to the 1st (of) 2011 Annual strength competition!

[Cannonfury]

I'm going to have to pass on this one...

[Captain Sharktooth]

Darn James, you beat me to the post! I might as well join it.... It could be fun...

[Captain Del]

Oh God, I better hit the gym if I want to get 1st again.

Plan on seeing ye there, mates. Bring your running boots

[Stephen O'Malley]

I might have been tempted to sign-up if the reward wasn't gold... I have more than 500k throughout my pirates, I don't need more!

[titanic95594]

Seems interesting. Stephen you can only have 200k.

[stpehen]

He said through out his pirates, not on one pirate.

You can have 4 pirates that can each hold up to 200k. Then you can sign up plenty of freebie accounts to act as "banks", which is another 200k per account. I have two pirates with 200k, then my other three (2 paid and one freebie) have around 80k altogether, last time I checked..

[Tiberius Fireskull]

Going for riddles both Sundays. My pirate is fat and nonathletic, but he has a lot of grey matter up there! Anyone who dares to challenge me is going DOWN.

[Crestshot]

Make way, Lads and Lasses. Kat Crestshot is not settling for 3rd this year! Haha, hope to see some of you mates there!

[ruisen2000]

[The Evil Will Mcbain]
