You look at the treasure map...

[Host Jeremiah]

You’ve chosen the treasure map, a very wise move indeed. Below are eight clues which describe famous pirates, both fictional and nonfictional. Find out who the clues are referring to, and you will take the next step to finding a great treasure.

You may only guess once a day. I will tell you how many you got right. If you get them all right, you will receive further instructions.








This Irish born pirate was one of the few female pirates.

This pirate looted a ship filled with gold and diamonds at Reunion Island. It was worth over one million sterlings.

This limbless pirate has a bit of an obsession with crocodiles.

This pirate was the first to fly the Jolly Roger, although he modified it from the commonly known version of today.

This pirate was a popular supplier in Madagascar. He lived a very lavish life, with plenty of harem girls and luxuries.

This pirate took control of his ship after mutinying against its captain. Later on, he famously became afflicted by the “Aztec Curse.”

This 21st century pirate was a defendant in the united state's first piracy trial in over two centuries.

This pirate was described as "the last of the buccaneers."

Regarding the clue:

If you'd like, you may show others this clue. You also may allow others to start attempting the clues. However, they will obviously receive the idol if they solve the puzzles faster than you.

If you'd like to allow someone else to attempt these puzzles to receive an idol, tell them to PM Aras, Jeremiah, and I the phrase below exactly.

"Hello, I'd like a treasure map."

However, you do not have to show anyone else this clue.

Another clue!

Congratulations on navigating through the first part of this trial. Your second trial will begin now.

This challenge comes in two parts.

Part 1

You will complete this jig saw puzzle: www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&pid=26d77a782181

Submit your finished puzzle with your AIM buddy list. Make sure the amount of puzzle pieces is visible in the screenshot.

This will take us to..

Part 2

Part 2 is endurance. You will be standing on the plank. Every minute you must post

"[Name] balances on plank."

You must do this for your puzzle time, rounded down. So, if your time on the puzzle is 50:36, you must post the above phrase for fifty minutes.

You may only attempt this challenge once a day (resetting at 12:00 AM EST). If you post more than once a minute, or miss a minute, you are out and must wait until 12AM to attempt the challenge again.

[edgardo]

ok so I just finished the puzzle.. it was so DAMN HARDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
137min
what did you expect!?!?!?! No one is going to finish this puzzle within an hour
out of 228 pieces there were only 40-50 that represented the white design, the rest was the freakin BACKGROUND!! rows and rows of same colour and identical pieces..

seriously.. why go from an easy trivia to something hard..
I can't post 137 times that's 2+ hours!

any way I can halve my time or make me endure something else because it's crazy

[Host Jeremiah]

Yeah Ed the way you're posting in that example is fine. And yes you can start today.

Also nope ed, you've gotta endure it or get nothing.

[Host Brian]

Jeremy is an evil asshole. Nobody deserves a punishment this cruel.
