Hello, I'm Titania McGee with Channel 5 Action News, your BEST source for up to date information.
In a followup to my recent reporting, I have obtained an interview with User not found: kahaleitzli, holy man and leader of the Omen Islands.
Quote by Kahaleitzli:
How terrible. We would never commit such an unspeakable act!
I must admit, I am deeply offended that you would take the word of a drunken pirate over that of a holy man. And if that weren't bad enough, a drunken pirate who has kidnapped guests of our party. When have we held you here against your will? What have we done to you to make you distrust us so easily?
These same pirates have terrorized us for years, and take delight in attacking our citizens. Why, even humble User not found: temictzin , a common fisherman and no threat to their ways, was blindly attacked and scarred. And great User not found: songaa has earned his honor by defending our home from these buccaneers.
Perhaps my brother was right when he said it was wrong to invite outsiders to our celebration - In his madness, there is a perfect moment of clarity, it seems - You will never understand us.
Next year, I think I will not be so eager to invite you back.

I am still on the islander side as they haven't given me any reason to distrust them. Pirates on the whole are untrustworthy.

I'm defiantly a pirate *changes her avie*. I'll take the side with swords and cannons over the people with the sharpened sticks and rocks any day! Fire away!

And what about ladies the pirates took? Are they allright? How can a bunch of drunken pirates protect them? There are others who are far more qualified to protect them.
I am wondering what the final offering is. I still haven't heard anything about it. Only speculations. Could the holy man reveal that to us. My pets are getting jumpy and my avatar is already sharpening his weapons. Better save than sorry was his explenation.

Hmm, an inebriated pirate who speaks freely, or a ‘holy man’ who had time to come up with an alibi and yet gave us a bunch of bullocks and slandered us. :/
Somehow I see myself siding with the pirates at this time.

I have no reason to distrust someone purely because they live on an island. I do, however, have every reason to distrust a group of people dedicated to stealing, raping, kidnapping, etc. and lol at all the "well pirates get wenches", it's not like that island doesn't have ladies on it.

Hmmm... I don't know if people will read the comments now, but...
If there is sacrifice/death involved, (IF! Don't get offended.) I will gladly be it. Why? Because I will come back as a ghost, and continue my usual lurking. And haunt Matlal, because I can. So, yeah. (I am the weakest link, goodbye!) <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
The other characters should get involved...Maleria shall spread chaos, Dr. Asmodeus will take notes, Pete will eat all the pinneapples, and the Old Wizard shall get new tribal panties. You know he wants them. It'll be the Ultimate Showdown of Subetean Destiny.
Now, if only Chcuk Norris was to get involved...

Way to be a complete jerk and blame us for the pirate attacks. 8( I was all gonna join the Islander's side if there was an islander vs. pirate event.
Whatever, I agree with Super. Pete always knows the answer.

The truth is always somewhere in the middle...methinks the pirates' grey cells have been pickled by too many rum toddies and the islanders' Big Kahuna may be a leaf or two short of a grass skirt. Solution: Ship Capt. Jacques and Kahaleitzli off to Anger Management Class while Channel 5 flies in Survivor Host Jeff Probst to sponsor a new reality TV show with the pirates and islanders entitled, "Do You Believe In Omens?"

I'm concerned about them... and a drunk pirate might exactly not be the best people for them to be in the hands of, but until you show all the undecided folks here the offering I won't be satisfied... and show us what is actually going on.

Side with the pirates, if you must (and may you reap what you have sown), but why is no one concerned about these kidnappings?

As I said before, my sacrificial offer stays. I prefer to sacrifice myself to stabilish peace than to live in a place that's nearing a war.
Also, pirates should stop stealing the gold trinkets we throw at the sea.

Not only did the Islanders give us colorful face paintings and nice little trinkets from the ocean, but also a plethora of achievements. Sorry Pirates, but I'm with the Islanders on this one.

I like the pirates a lot. They are pretty awesome and I'll side with them... For some reason the idea of sacrificing pretty young women isn't a new one... The islanders are becoming the bad guys of this whole thing... and when they ban us from the festivities I'll be happy.

I be thinkin' they're be no Omen Islander festival next year? I dare to say it was fun. But I be beliveing the Cap'n, I don' think Merena gets her good looks from th' sea wat'r.

I kinda think that a drunker person's word is more reliable than a holy man's. When someone is totally wasted, they lose their inhibition and say thigns that ordinarily they would not. Normally you may not tell your friend her dress is horrid, but if you get drunk enough, it just may slip out. On the other hand, the only way you can really know if a holy man is lying bout something ceremonial is if you know the ceremony inside and out; otherwide you're just guessing. That's my opinion, at least.

The fact that they are "good people" makes them perfect candidates for sacrifice or "spiritual offering."

Did they really now? The way I see it, we all tossed gold into the sea and got back homemade jewelry. Hm...gold....woven jewelry...

At this point I can't really be taking sides, so I think I'll wait things out just a bit. More information on this issue will hopefully bring more reason for me to side with the islanders. As it stands, the idea of this final "voodoo approved" sacrifice gives me little reason to trustful.

So, when exactly did he tell us what the Final Offering was? He was so quick to jump to being defensive and accuse us of doing wrong without even telling us the truth.
