tell me about it! <grumbles>

 

[Old Nicodemus]

Vermillon is a Jupitus man
a tin clad rhyming fan
do not fear
give Jupi a cheer
Then report him to get him a ban!


Jupi is a tad good, so don't worry about voting for him. It's not the winning that counts.. it's the taking part and having fun.

Now Aoln, you wanted some help
so here you shouted your yelp
Do you vote for Nico
Or Jupi, that sicko
or Shaeffer that annoying young whelp?


Go with the flow.. or do a tactical vote.. or just plain vote Albion!! Whatever you decide have fun watching the mayhem

 

[old.Tyraette]

Ok here it comes, the shocking confession of Shaeff. I want Nico to win.

The poll is to find out who is your Limerick Champion. I personally believe that this is less about who writes the best limericks, and more about who best fills that role as the Peoples Limericker.

Personally I think Nico has garnered more smiles and laughs than me or Jup ever will. His rhymes may be somewhat...lacking...but he more than makes up for it with his laidback approach, sense of humour, and ability to put up with our merciless ribbing.

I dont think this would have been half as entertaining without him here, and to be honest its always been Nico's comments I've enjoyed more than anyone elses. For hanging in there, enjoying himself despite falling down the ShittyRhyming tree and hitting every branch on the way down, and being an all round good egg, I hereby secede my challenge to claim the title of Peoples Limericker, with all my votes going to Nicodemus.

Thanks for the smiles mate, now give that man a custom sig!

/salute Nico :great:

 

[Graknak]

Ok giving it a shot:

This limerick stuff is just lame
It's a bad excuse to flame
With a whine here and there
But heck, i don't care
As long as Jup gets all the fame

 

[Damini]

Handing over your votes when there's only four votes from last to first? I say we're in the final stretch, and we'll see no concessions here!

Nico's laid back attitude has been noted, as has Jup's rhyming sniping and Tyraettes tourettes

Now fly my winged warriors! FLY!

Welcome to our little bit of fun. Pull up a stool and join in.. Jupi's buying

Thanks there for your kind words,
I've come to join the poetry herds,
I've voted for the waif,
yes that guy they call Shaeff,
Coz quite frankly the rest smell like terds.

 

[Erekrose]

Come on Shaeff needs another vote,
Don't put jup in a position to gloat.
he not that good,
& he gets hard wood,
Thinking of bestiality with a goat.

 

[Jupitus]

Some talking of nurses is fine,
And I am not one known to whine,
But please keep it clean,
We don't want a scene,
The limericks really should shine

 

[Jupitus]

I echo Shaeff's thoughts regards Nic,
He's taken up plenty of stick,
His rhymes aren't that poor,
I wish he'd do more,
And be Mr King Limerick!

 

[Erekrose]

Come on jup now please dont be shy,
Im sure you can come up with a better reply,
This is a test
Give it your best,
Im sure in the end ill force you to cry.

 

[Jupitus]

I have begun talking like this,
My wife thinks I'm taking the piss,
But what's even worse,
Is talking in verse,
In the office of corporate bliss

 

[Erekrose]

I really wish id none of this fun sooner,
Im simply more than your average crooner,
So i demand a new poll,
one for this excaliber mole,
Otherwise known as the fins group mooner.

 

[Jupitus]

I think it is fair that our mod,
Should pick out the limerick god,
Go ask on your boards,
Amongst Excal hoards,
Go on now, off there you plod!!

Aha, he's the Excaliber Sinatra
Crooning out his old school sonata
late to our thread
there's only beans and bread
So you'll be known as the Excaliber farter!

 

[Erekrose]

On excal the challenge is not there,
And to be honest your competion is fair,
So ill stay near
dont you fear,
I can see ur about to lose your hair.

 

[old.Tyraette]

By the way, is anyone else surprised at just how even this is turning out to be ?

 

[Jupitus]

Not really

 

[Old Nicodemus]

Aye it is very close indeed!

Which is surprising me... as I know my limericks suck so badly you can taste lemon

And I have yet to vote.. and I refuse to vote for myself.. so it could get closer still!!

 

[Erekrose]

I wonder why that you ask me leave,
There is only one reason i concieve,
Your clearly afraid,
of the rhymes ive made,
and worried about the words i'm about to weave

 

[Old Nicodemus]

Good Erekrose, we've not asked you to leave
in fact you've good ryhmes up your sleeve
You're just a little late
for our battle great
and that's not hard at all to perceive!

 

[Jupitus]

To do so would not be our style,
Sit down! put your feet up a while!
We're happy to see,
Some company, see?
And add to the limerick pile

 

[Erekrose]

With every rhyme u seem to improve,
im really digging your lyrical groove,
given a chance,
i'm sure i will enhance,
And to the side you three will move.

 

[Erekrose]

I guess i'm the self appointed excaliber champion,
Your thread i am clearly putting my stamp on.
ill take up your offer,
to add to the limerick coffer,
Now if ull excuse my friend needs her tampon.

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Loyalty says vote for Nico,
Devilment says for Tyraette,
There can be only one,
Lord of truely bad puns,
Looks like I'll vote for Teh Jup.

Devilment.. to be a devil.. to throw a bone to 7 starving dogs and see which one wins.. to intentionally get peoples hopes up before dashing them.. to generally be a pain in the arse and enjoy every minute of it.

 

[Old Nicodemus]

And btw Roo....

That was a really bad, bad limerick... I should know.

 

[old.Tyraette]

cool. can i spec in it or is it a base ability?

does being above cap help in it?

... seems Shaeffer may be a bit over-qualified
