Phenotype posted:Or, you know, say gently caress history and have the pirates of Nassau wage war against England and Spain, kill everyone in their way, blow up half the British fleet, and end the show with a democratic pirate council ruling over a free island. Spartacus managed to stick the landing regardless with like the best ending I think I've ever seen a TV-series have so I'm not that worried.

Party Plane Jones posted:It's more important for the flag to either be black or red than the actual design. Black meaning you were a pirate and willing to give quarter, red meaning you were going to slaughter the whole ship. Why would you ever raise a red flag then?

Rad Gravity posted:You'd raise the black flag when closing on your intended victim to let them know you were a pirate and they should really, really surrender now. If they decided to fight anyway, you might raise the red flag instead, and no quarter would be given even to crew who tried to surrender after that point. Obviously, many ships would rather surrender while the black was flying than risk a fight to the death with hardened criminals. Still not really seeing the point of telling your prospective opponent in battle that you will unconditionally murder the poo poo out of them instead of just doing it.

But didn't the information effectively get intercepted by Blackbeard this episode? I mean the guy with the papers offed himself the moment he risked being captured which means that the information must have still been confidential. Doesn't this mean that Roger's is essentially about to gently caress himself over for nothing?

Holy hell, that blew even the finale of season 1 out of the water. Especially that stinger, Long John Silver. So excited for the next season.  I guess Vane had to go to make room for Stevenson being a regular. MiddleOne fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Mar 26, 2016 |

Teek posted:Welp, another four and done Starz series: Considering that Spartacus did the same and went out on what I feel is arguably the best series finale of any show I have ever seen I'm not exactly bummed by these news. Shows should not run past their expiration dates just because they're doing good. It always sours me on a show when you have a fantastic couple of early seasons and then the later seasons just re-threads plotlines and character development like a broken record to the point of self-parody (Looking at you Oz  ) because the writers ran out of ideas.
