 		Interesting. Sol is Latin for 'sun', and it is still used in some other European languages (Scandinavian, at least). Might mean tomorrow?

Or it could just be some name or another code. What do I know.

Talk Like a Pirate Day site wrote:
Arrr! - This one is often confused with arrrgh, which is of course the sound you make when you sit on a belaying pin. "Arrr!" can mean, variously, "yes," "I agree," "I'm happy," "I'm enjoying this beer," "My team is going to win it all," "I saw that television show, it sucked!" and "That was a clever remark you or I just made." And those are just a few of the myriad possibilities of Arrr!


So, what be causin' @Piratebeard's pain, I be wonderin'... Smile

Might've been a way to toss in a reference to 'ARG' while hiding it in the pirate speech. Or he's having some slight pain. Who knows.

"@CrossedBone I set up me Port at the free oda."

I searched at freeoda.com but couldn't find a site.

 		Workin' off of randyfuj's idea, this seems to be in-game (I think):

http://blackbeardsport.freeoda.com/

Spoiler initial content so you can go explore it yerself.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Gives us a blinkin' P.-( and an input field; "Wave yer flag!" Answer: jollyroger
That gives a page with three links
" -> The Lodge <-
-> The Shipyard <-
-> The Treasury <- "

The first http://blackbeardsport.freeoda.com/index.php/home/jollyroger/the-lodge gives this list:
1/Blackbeard(@Piratebeard)[M]
2/Pirate Pete(@CrossedBone)[M]
3/Long John Silver[M]
4/Patchy[M]
5/Pegleg[M]
6/Kid[M][JR]
7/Mermaid[F]
8/Fox[F]
9/Wench[F]
10/Hook[M]
11/Crow[M]
12/Whip[M]
13/Unlucky Jo[M]
14/Salty[M]
15/Newbie[M]
16/Seadog(c/o:Kid)[M][PET]

There's our two mates at the top of the list.

The other two pages
http://blackbeardsport.freeoda.com/index.php/home/jollyroger/the-shipyard
http://blackbeardsport.freeoda.com/index.php/home/jollyroger/the-treasury


I'm still poking around.
