The last pirates I saw in UO were part of the Vanguard attacks on Serp's Hold.

They were invulnerable.

Therefore, they win.

Unless this poll is leading up to something, why bother with it? Not being a negative Nelly, but considering pirates have been asked for since infinity in UO, it's pretty misleading to see someone official posting this. And if there IS significance behind it, why not put it in U.Hall?

Otherwise, pirates with cake ftw.

This was just a silly post purposely put in the off topic section. Who doesn't want to have a battle of pirates, ninjas, or cake?

I live in the Ultima Online universe, where the pirates ARE ninja.

Ninja pirates beat them all!

edit: All the same, I voted with my stomach.

CAKE!

That sounds more rude than I mean it to. Just get tired of the same things being asked and ignored and I'm not the only one.

And I still say pirates WITH cake. :)

After the pirates win, the ninja's get sent barefoot to the kitchen, to bake cakes for the pirates.

Isn't a pirate just basically a Eurothug on a boat?

People think they would beat a professional assassin?

Amazing.

Let's not forget Scurvy. It's not easy to fight while you're partially immobilized and have open suppurating wounds and your teeth are falling out left and right.

When was the last time you saw a toothless ninja?
Never! Because if you've ever seen a ninja that close up, you were dead 2 seconds later.

LOL! Yep hands down ninjas. Much more mobile than pirates and since they wouldn't be seen anyways, shuriken w/poison for the win. :p

you can be a pirate in UO,

the problem is not weather or not you CAN be a pirate, it is that its pointless!

You can get some skill with a blade, and wear a hat, and even tame a bird, but where are you going to sail your ship too in a world of recall and gate?
where are you going to pillage in a world of insta teleport insta kill guards?

wait...

whats the contest?

which is cooler?

which would win in a fight?

Which would win at soccer?

I dont get it, ninjas win in a fight, coolness is subjective, and ninjas probly win at football too.

If you look at this logically a ninja would win if in stealth. If it is an open fight the pirate would then have a chance. I picked ninja.

Ninjas across the board..

They sneak aboard, wait for the pirates to be 'rummed' out.. use the pirates own scimitar to cut their throat, steal the cake, and back off into the night.

Pirates? hmm.. somthing fishy about wanting to be on a boat in middle of the ocean with a bunch of dudes and no women.. No? Throw the birthday cake back in there, puffy clothes, and Jack Sparrow and oh man..

Should be a rainbow instead of a skull n crossbones.

How the hell is cake not winning this?

But really, in Asia, I think they had NINJA PIRATES! Who says they're mutually exclusive??

Non-lie cake > all

Realistically, ninjas are highly trained martial artists/assassins/infiltration experts. They use razor sharp ninjatos, short straight swords that are engineered to allow a quicker draw to defeat a samurai's katana.

Pirates rarely have any formal martial training. Their use cutlasses, a curved blade very suitable for use in the confines they normally have to fight in. However, the blades cannot support a razor edge.



In a straight one on one fight, the ninjas would win hands down. Though it's more likely that they infiltrate the pirate ship and poison/assassinate the pirates in their sleep :D
