Description: Steve Ivanovich O'Shaunessy was stuck in a dead-end job working as a pirate mascot in a cheap themed seafood restaurant in Toronto. One day Steve was cruising around Lake Ontario on his friend's small boat, drowning his feelings of inadequacy in cheap Canadian beer, when the boat suddenly collided with a larger, faster boat smuggling cheap prescription drugs from Canada into the US. The crash killed both the smugglers and Steve's friend; Steve was lucky, escaping only with minor head trauma. He now talks like a pirate and cruises the streets of Ontario, seeking criminals to bring to justice by.... raiding and pillaging. Arr!
 
"Arr!"

Two more punches to the face. The criminal continued to whimper.

"I swear, I don't know anything about no drug smuggling!"

"Arr!"

Another punch across the face. The criminal coughed up blood.

"I swear!"

"Arr!"

The dark figure in the pirate costume threw the criminal against the wall of the alleyway and kicked him in the shins.

"Really, I swear! I don't know anything! All I did was steal a package of fish sticks!"

"Arr!"

The criminal is thrown to the ground, and a black pirate boot connects firmly with his face, which is now covered in blood. The criminal lays on the ground, weeping, curling into a fetal position.

"Well, maybe ye be telling the truth, then, lad. Now. About those fish sticks ye looted..."

"I wouldn't say I looted the fish sticks, sir. I just took a package of them. Hardly looting."

"ARR!"

Another boot in the face. The criminal cried out in pain.

"Fine, fine, I looted the fish sticks! I looted a package of bloody fish sticks! Just please stop kicking me!"

"Aye, matey, you be returning those fish sticks to where they came from, and ye won't be walking the plank and sleeping in Davey Jones' locker. Nor any of the other Monkeys' lockers, for that matter. Saavy?"

"Y...y...yes. I'll return the fish sticks. I'm sorry Mr. Pirate."

"No, matey, me name be Steve the Pirate, Captain of the 1987 Ford Econoline, Terror of Lake Ontario, the Saltiest Sea-Dog on the Great Lakes. And don't ye ever forget that. Whenever a scoundrel like ye be about, looting and pillaging, Steve the Pirate is never far behind ye, raiding and plundering in the name of justice! Arr!"

The hapless criminal ran away as quickly as he could, to return the package of fish sticks to the corner grocer. Steve the Pirate had saved the day once again.
 
No idea where EST is (there are three of them), but by my time, deadline was up 25 hours ago.

So why hasn't there been an update, or even news of one??
 
Update 2: 1951- The Year of the Assassin

The Yearly Globe
The world's only once a year newspaper

Arms Race between the USA and USSR
The United States of America has detonated a hydrogen bomb at Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean, Professor Thrus, a man with extraordinary genius in the field of Physics, announced today. This announcement comes on the heels of an announcement by the USSR 4 days ago that they have the Atomic Bomb.

The Clash in Korea
On the morning of February 23 UN forces, led by Captain America prepared to launch Operation Ripper, to take back Seoul from the Communist armies. As Douglas MacArthur briefed his officials, he was interrupted by Captain America, warning Douglas of an imminent Communist assault. Somehow the Communists had discovered the American plans and launched their own counterattack to counter the American counterattack of the communist counterattack (did I confuse you there?). The 2 sides clashed 20 miles south of Seoul, in the city of Suwon. The battle led to the destruction of most of the city, as communist forces retreated north and Wanton Doom was driven back by Captain America. But on the retreat, Wanton Doom set fire to large stretches of land, shrouding Seoul under a cloud of smoke. By the time the UN forces reached the former capital, communist forces were heavily entrenched and ready to fight. A costly offensive by the Americans left tens of thousands dead and brought the battle lines to the Han River, leaving the city divided. Captain America was injured in this offense, as he was shot out of the sky by a soviet made missile, allowing Wanton Doom time to stabilize the front.

Stalin Assassinated
We bring you breaking news from this year’s May Day parade in Moscow. Joseph Stalin, leader of the USSR has been shot and killed. Officials close to the Kremlin have reported that the bullet that slain Stalin was made out of pure gold with an enclave inside holding some sort of toxin. A manhunt is on in Russia for the assassin. With Stalin dead, there is a resulting power vacuum, as different factions vive for power.

Family Abducted by Aliens
Not that anyone cares, but the ancestors of a certain NESer, *cough*alex*cough. Were abducted by aliens and are currently drifting past Star System 51945 as slaves to the Coneheadian Empire and are forced to sew Japanese flags and make sushi for the Imperial Conehead. In other news, Walnut, California was destroyed by an earthquake today, geologists are saying that this earthquake may be a sign that the big one is coming soon.

McCarthy Murdered, San Francisco in Chaos
An attempted kidnapping of Senator McCarthy ended in a bloody fight that resulted in the deaths of Senator McCarthy, 2 secret service officers, 1 policeman, and 1 civilian, along with 2 suspected Emperor Norton followers, one was captured. The incident happened in a restaurant in Wisconsin where henchmen of Norton attempted to grab McCarthy at breakfast, but that is where it went bad, as the secret service jumped into action. A fight broke out, and a bullet struck McCarthy in the chest, he was pronounced dead at the scene. His last words are reported as, “This is the work of the Communists! We must ….. fight… them! Those.. darn.. com… mun.. ists in San … Francisco. They..mu..st….be des…tr..oyed!” Already President Truman has placed the blame on Emperor Norton, and ordered him arrested. As the police and FBI moved into San Francisco to arrest Norton, they were met by angry crowds of hobos who have sided with Norton, as those people do not believe that is was Norton’s fault McCarthy was killed, they say it was suicide by McCarthy. The police took action, opening fire, killing several people including a few children and set fire to the cardboard villages of the hobos, this was the last straw as the followers of Norton, many hobos and even a few from the middle class rose up against the Government, angered by the accusations that San Francisco was full of communists and for the massacre. The mayor of San Francisco was throw into exile and the city is in anarchy.

More Assassinations
China was rocked my assassinations this week, as 6 hardcore Stalinist Communist hardliners in Beijing were murdered and their homes looted. In addition, the Burmese embassy was raided today by armed thugs, leading to the deaths of 9 Burmese officials and 3 thugs due to the upgraded security. This was the second of this such attack in year, and many nations have begun to step up security around their embassies. At the site of each of these attacks above was left a poem reading:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
We are the Black Dragon
And we just killed you.

Istanbul in Flames
Over the past several months, there have been random attacks throughout the city. All of them involving gun wielding horsemen. The attacks started out small, but as time went on they became more coordinated and reached a peak when the mayor, his wife, and the police chief were killed in the same night. One night, the police station was attacked, looted, and burned. And another night, explosions rocked the city, destroying 3 buses and killing at least 25. But not everything was defeat, as the police had killed 3 of the horsemen, strangely one that was shot twice at point blank range with a shotgun somehow survived, and proceeded to wreak havoc with an axe.

Captain Obvious Shot
On the streets of Philadelphia, Captain Obvious was shot by a serial bank robber after walking into a bank that was being robbed and asking the robber is that a gun he was holding. Then Captain Obvious said “You are a criminal because you are robbing this bank.” And the criminal said “Thank you Captain Obvious” and proceeded to unload on Captain Obvious. He is currently hospitalized and still is pointing out to the doctors that he was shot.

You shouldn't have revealed the ending of the Harry Potter book to me. Don't worry, they will return.
 
With anal probes :lol:

Anyway no level up and no cash gain for Nuclear Winter??!!It would have been nice to see that Nashville was obliterated and thrown in chaos in the update :(
 
In Pyongyang an outraged citizen listened to the loudspeakers for information on the war in the South.
He was enraged... enraged that Captain America was once again trying to beat down on his kindred.

But oh no, he was no normal citizen.
His eyes had powers, powers to burn things with a red shaft of light. He stared intensely at the loudspeaker until a spot of plastic that was melting suddenly burst into flames and the speaker crackled, hissed with pops then went silent.

He left the square with a new sense of purpose as a guard rushed to the scene shouting orders at the people to leave the area.

He was Laser-Yan and he would be the death of the white warriors.

Yan volounteered the next day to join the North Korean army and insisted agressively on being transferred to a frontline unit that would see much combat.
It did not take him much pleading and cajoling before his wish was fulfilled, but he was almost thrown into jail for his rudeness. That was until he proved his capabilities by torturing a western prisoner for information on his infantry unit using his special ability to burn off the skin of his subject alive.
