‘Tis less than a month to that fine International-type holiday reserved for all things piratical. Aye, ye scurvy bilge rats, time to drag your brain out o’ the grog and put your pen to paper to create the best in puzzlin’ madness anywheres.

The deadline for havin’ yer work considered for this glory will be 2 bells on the dogs watch on September 12 – and that be 2 bells Pacific time. So step to it smartly.

Official translation for the pirate impaired:
