I'm nearly done, been working it backwards, stuck on one last verse.

quote: Originally posted by Trip That's beautiful grumpy ol' 'dOx. Couple things with your last segment though. Outside should be one word. Also, Spain's "plees" should be "pleas."

Are you sure it isn't "fleas"?

Then Old UnO thought of his tattered rapport, "Maybe this forum," he thought, "I don’t need to ignore. "Maybe...perhaps...I just got a bit too grumpy before!" From whence would this poem come...? Well...in GoW they say That UnO’s bottled anger, just seemed to melt right away! And when he saw all the others delight, He locked himself in the private forum to write. Inspired by the likes of WhereItsAt and of Ennet! that he... ...HE HIMSELF...! UnOrthOdOx sat down to pen it!

As one post:

quote: HOW THE Glory of War STOLE the Peace deal by The Glory of War Every Stormian Down in Estonia Liked their peace deal a lot... But the Warmongers, Who lived just West of Estonia, Did NOT! The Warmongers hated Peace Deals! The whole peaceful posting! No, they all liked their wars, and War Chickens for Roasting. It could be that their heads weren't screwed on quite right. It could be, perhaps, that their armor was too tight. But I think that the most likely reason to date May have been that their stomachs lacked food on their plate. But, Whatever the reason, Whether armor or tummy, They went riding for chicken, it looking quite yummy, Staring out from their hills with rumbling belly At the plump clucking War Chickens and Stormian jelly. For they knew that the enemy shared similar vices: Honor, Pride, original herbs and spices. And they've called for a meeting!" Aggie proclaimed with a grin. "Claiming a wish to ally, to help us to win!" Then he growled with a curse mocking this greeting, "I MUST find a poor soul, perhaps two, to attend to this meeting!" For, the meeting, he knew... ...All those attending, Stormians or not Would be stuck in the chatroom. Patiently awaiting to talk. And then! Oh, the Talk! Oh, the Talk! Talk! Talk! Talk! That's one thing he hated! The TALK! TALK! TALK! TALK! Then the Stormians, and Warmongers alike, would sit down to hash. And they'd hash! And they'd hash! And they'd HASH! HASH! HASH! HASH! They would start on the border, and who got the west or the east! A concept that he knew some warmongers would not stand for, at least! And THEN They'd do something most appalling of all! All Stormians present, or active at all Would stand firm in their stance, no sign of bowing. They'd stand so steadfast. "Roleplay must live" they'ld be vowing! They'd vow! And they'd vow! AND they'd VOW! VOW! VOW! VOW! And the more King Aggie thought of the Stormian-Roleplay-Vow. The more that he thought, "Why is this happening now? "Why twas not long ago we gave them a chance or two! I MUST send someone to keep their cool ...But WHO?" Then he got an idea! An awful idea! KING AGGIE GOT A WONDERFUL, AWFUL IDEA! "I know just who to send!" King Aggie grinned making for his PM box. And he made a quick message to Master Zen and to 'dOx. And he chuckled, and clucked, "What a great Warmonger team! "With UnOrthOdOx and Zen, what info we could ream!" "I'll make up the outline..." UnO exclaimed with some pride. Believing in his heart, on organization all would ride. And they sat there for hours.... when UnOrthOdOx finally said, "Can we get to a point, I need to get to bed!" For several hours he sat, digesting all that he read Where GS took hours, UnO took five minutes instead. THEN With the chat all finished The proposals wrote up The Warmongers went home And they slapped a vote up. Then Ghengis cried out "I can't live with this junk! Just look over at Roleplay, All Spain smells like skunk!" It was out sideof Pamplona, down in some trees GS forces had gathered, responding to Spain's pleas But soon ND forces ran down and slaughtered with ease. "Look down on all those chickens" Old King Aggie spat "They're ripe for the plucking, we can't miss on that." The warmongers flew from the Alamo with glee. And joined in with ND in the mass killing spree. They fought possessed, spurred on with hunger pain, and soon the WarChickens were falling like rain. Donegeal looked over the carnage, he knew what to do. "These Chickens," he grinned, "Will be just great in a stew!" They felt not but respect, as the War Chickens they plucked. GS had fought hard, their choice of allies just sucked! Nuggets! And Stews! Ratatouille! Buffalo Wings! They ate Curry! Marsalla! Dijon! a la King! And they stuffed all their faces. It all tasting quite yummy. And they went to bed that night, each one with a full tummy! And Darekill went out to the forum, with a poem he wrote. He posted it up, not of ND meaning to gloat. But OPD was watching and as quick as a flash. "Why" he replied "do you guys keep posting this trash!" This angered UnOrthOdOx, enough to make his lips quiver. "Oh GS!" He went and shouted, "Go cry me a River!" And GS gathered 'round OPD, perhaps some thought it a sport And soon sides were exchanging each in fiery retort. As the forum errupted for all out there to see! It gained the attention of all, even the one known as NYE.

I've spoken to Mr Theseus, and am giving him 24 hours to prepare his team before posting it publicly.
