DanQ had asked me to do the newZupdates for the PTWDG, so here is the copy for the first edition...
WAR!
730 BC: Just a few years after announcing their intentions to return to the continent of Bob to reclaim the city that had once been theirs, despite the threats of the three-civ native Bob coalition, the people of Vox Controli shocked the world by suddenly reversing course with Operation: Immortal Beloved and attacking their southern neighbors, Gathering Storm.
None, of course, were more suprised than Gathering Storm's front-line warrior, Grog. His mountain-top perch was no shield from the many whirling swords of the Voxian Immortals. The fighting quickly moved from the battlefield to the world forum, where the rhetoric was thick, and the invective sharp.
"Vox seems intent on proving themselves to the entire world to be untrustworthy and unstable. Soon they can expect to be unliving as well" said nbarclay, a citizen of Gathering Storm. Meanwhile, a popular new war ditty was circulated amongst the Voxian soliders by BetaHound
"Yes, Grog was there, tending his sheep,
Having fun with them, and getting his sleep.
He was fat and lazy, not much to do,
Then war arrived, and Eli too.
So storms may rage, and winds may swirl,
But the real truth is - Grog fought like a girl."
The war is now in its early stages, but with both civilizations now in their Golden Ages, the combat can be expected to be brutal and bloody. The rest of the citizens of Apolyton watch intently, waiting to see what the future holds...
Legoland Constructs First Great Wonder of the World
710 BC: It was a proud day today for the people of Legoland as they completed a project that had been worked on by generations of dedicated laborers from across their lands. With a great sounding of trumpets, Legos the Wise unveiled the Great Pyramids for all the world to see.
"I don't really know where the idea first came from," stated Master Builder Kloreep, "we just tossed some old stones in a field one day, and then a few more, and then we all started to wonder just how many we could possibly stack up, and then... viola! 1000 years later we've got ourselves something pretty dang spiffy!"

The newZupdate is very informative, readable and most important, humorous. 
In addition, I would like to note that in my opinion, which is as objective as it can possibly be, GS's poems were as good as Vox's, if not better. In any case, they deserve to be published as much as the Voxian poem, IMHO. ZargonX, if you would not mind, please include one of GS's poems along with Vox's poem.

-what about providing a link to the international forum so the people can read the trash talking between Vox and GS?
