Shiver me timbers! There’s a new Mission for International Talk Like a Pirate Day
Ahoy, maties! An ol’ sea dog told me it’s International Talk Like a Pirate Day on September 19th! This be a festive day where every soul (an’ especially developers) be encouraged t’ talk like a pirate, jus’ fer th’ fun o’ it! T’ mark th’ occasion, the captains at SAP Community be launchin’ a new voyage– th’ Treasure Hunter mission!
These festivities also be the perfect time t’ commit t’ me quest o’ earn’n the SAP Community Fireball 2020 badge. This here lassie ’ll be engagin’ on SAP Community daily fer 30 days in a row (or face walkin’ the plank). Certainly somethin’ to grab a jug o’ grog about.
But alas, back to mission! My shipmates at SAP Digital Commerce have hidden treasure across the pages of 10 products that help boost developer productivity – five on SAP App Center and five on SAP Store. To win the Treasure Hunter badge, you will have to find all 10 pieces o’ booty hidden on the pages. Luckily, you will have some help – @SAPDigital will be giving out hints on Twitter on the 19th and you will have a week to find all the treasure.
Why are we observing #TalkLikeaPirateDay you ask? Well, why NOT? It is just plain fun! We also have done a lot of work on our digital channels – SAP Store for SAP solutions and SAP App Center for partner solutions – that has made it much easier to find, try, and buy the solutions that many in the SAP Community need. We would love to celebrate what we have accomplished, while also showcasing what developer tools we have available.

Ay, ay captain! All ten treaures were found. As a "code pirate" no hints were needed, but I guess it was clear that pirates play with their own rules 😉

At last, I found all th’ treasures ?☠️ ☠️. I wants t’ share me treasures wit’ all fellow community mates but I don’t wants t’ get banned from future loots, so I shall only share me treasures wit’ ye my profile , follow me
PS: I had trouble findin’ me last booty ’cause some o’ th’ apps are locked wit’ country, th’ ship where I stay(U.A.E) don’t open some apps
, loot some time t’ figure that out. So fellow community scallywags, change th’ country t’ “Germany”, ’twill be easy t’ find all th’ treasures.

Hi Amanda,
Using my pegleg, my hook and my eye patch, I was able to find all treasures.
Would you follow me back, so I can send you the URLs from where the treasures are?
Thanks and kind regards,
Cris
PS: let me share a joke about pirates...
A guy was walking in a harbor and saw an authentic pirate: pegleg, hook and eye patch!
He asked the pirate:
- How did you get the pegleg?
- Well, I walked the plank and a shark was around... Thus, the pegleg!
- How did you get the hook?
- Well, a sword fight, I lost the hand. Thus, the hook!
- How did you get the eye patch?
- A seagull was flying over the ship, did some crap that fall in my eye.
- So you had an infection and lose the eye? Thus, the eye patch?
- No, was the first day I had the hook!
Thanks for the chuckle! Followed you back an' lookin fer the loot list 🙂
