Season's greetings, CO fans!

With 2011 flying by, the clock is ticking towards another bright new year, 2012. Of course, the TQ team will bring out an extra fun series of events down the road, to celebrate the coming of the new "Invasion of Pirates" expansion! But before that, the Pirate Cosplay contest is going wild! In this contest, your participation will earn you not just fame, but also some fabulous prizes!

In the meantime, we took the opportunity to interview one of the participants. Before we get started, let's take a look at his submission!

Mark & his cosplay of Captain Jack Sparrow

Doesn't he look like he jumped out of a movie? And he's a joy to have a conversation with!

His name is Mark, a Brazilian who works as a waiter and he's really glad that we interviewed him for a little while. His cosplay image is currently ranked at third in the event, and could keep moving up! Inspired by his hobby and being a lifetime fan of anime, he decided to start cosplaying two years ago. It must be such a thrill to be able to feel like a hero in a movie!

He told us he likes this event a lot, since he's very big on cosplay and RPGs. He also wants the CO fans out there to show up and give him some more competition in this awesome event! After all, there are some great prizes for the winners!

The event is happening now, and won't end until Jan. 13th, so why are you still hiding? Come on out and show your pirate self!
