Favorite Pirate ship name?
Title says it all, my favorite is 'Four Lights.'

I trust a number of you get the reference.

You must have misread. I got that ship in my game but the name is definitely 'Five Lights'.

I would be willing to bet you'll fine both names in the game given both refer to the same TNG ep involving Cardasians torturing Captain Picard. He gets tortured, showed 4 lights, told by the torturer that there are 5 lights, asked if he sees 5 lights, Picard says 'I see Four Lights,' gets tortured and the cycle repeats.

Not really into reading ship names, TBH.

Which is in turn a reference to Orwell's 1984 where a similar scene occurs. So it's a reference to a reference.
