[up][up] That second one is good.

[up][up] Another concern with McAllister is that he literally admitted in one episode that he's not a real captain. "Subverted" isn't a disqualifier, but it should be considered a flaw.

[up] Eh, I think it's alright for illustrative purposes.

23 > 25.1 > 4

I think the Tin Tin image could work, but people were saying the image needs a background.

That said, I have another Barbosa image (that would need to be cropped 'cause it's huge): [1]

Throwing in an artwork of Long John Silver: [1].

Might need the artist's permission, though.

The less overlap with "pirate" the better.

I think we have enough for a crowner

Alternatively, there's also Gibbs from Pirates Of The Caribbean:

Would Jack Sparrow himself count or is he too young?

Of the three leading options, I'd most support the Gibbs one. Practically looks like a textbook example of an old sailor.

32 seems just as not-an-example as 6, though. He's not as pleasant-looking as 6, but he's still pleasant-looking.

Eh, I'd say he looks grizzled and unkempt enough to qualify. Plus, he is a supporting character from a (Disney) live-action film. They are supposed to be somewhat pleasant-looking.

Spiral out, keep going.

Votes bump; four in the green.

Gibbs is 8 points in the green, and 5 points ahead of the next option. He's running away with this... or rather, sailing away with it.

Shall we call this, or give it another few days?

Nope, this is ready to call. The new pic's up and tagged; caption?

Anyone know what if anything Gibbs was saying in the original context of that screenshot?

No consensus on a caption; locking up.
