    Vox had a plan ever so grand
    But the forces of Storm made their stand
    Vox's troops did their best
    But in peace they do rest
    And today peace is now close at hand

      General Jon clearly had his dislikes
      And that includes those damn pikes
      So he said 'Let's march on'
      Over the mountains at dawn
      And the last word ever heard was a "Yikes!".
      Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please.

        OK - from the above posts it would appear that the only people in the world capable, or willing, to write limericks are native to Estonia (or Stormia).

        Or maybe so many members of GS are contributing because they don't want that private forum peace discussion to fall into the wrong hands.

          I see reponses from Lego, RP and GoW members in this thread too.
          If I'm posting here then Counterglow must be down.

            FP - agreed. However, to date we have 13 from GS, 3 from Vox, and 1 each from GoW, Lego, and RP.

            NeuD - well, we understand. Anyone care to try a limerick in German?

              Make it 2 for Legoland

              A humble nation once, I was told,
              Raised a grand army; more than eye can behold.
              They dared to challenge the storm
              Their tactics clever: misinform.
              The world was shocked: that was bold!

              It was a defiant, heroic, final stand
              Now they're ready to sail to Legoland
              "We fought bravely, we never cheated,
              We lost a fight, we're not defeated!
              (painful silence) ... farewell Motherland."
              "The only way to avoid being miserable is not to have enough leisure to wonder whether you are happy or not. "
              --George Bernard Shaw

                  What do you expect? Gee, the two teams who actually PARTICIPATED in the peace deal are the ones posting. I wonder why...

                  Well, since MY submission didn't even qualify as apparantly "willing or capable" Ill just leave this thread alone.

                  I'll just focus my efforts on Trappings instead

                    I was working on a second one yesterday, but just couldn't get it to work nicely.

                    I'll try to post another today sometime.

                      OK - I agree my words were not particularly well chosen , but I did include it in the GoW count, and your non-limerick pieces were excellent, btw.

                      And you do not have to have inside info to come up with a limerick.

                      So quit your complaining and get back in this thread.

                            Vox Controli wanted to tuss
                            But it turned out to be just a fuss
                            The Medieval Infantries were stout
                            And the storm spoken out:
                            "All your base are belong to us."
                            The war of immortals ended fast
                            Vox will go by the way of the mast
                            Vox lies in peace today
                            Soon they'll be rowing away
                            For the sake of a peace that will last
                            Beta, here are my admission fees.

                              It's over! I can't take this anymore! I'm sorry Beta, I can't keep up with these lies anymore. I have to confess.
                              This is the truth. Me and Beta have been using the limerick contest's admission fee to "launder" money. But now it is all over.
                              I surrender. Arrest me! Lock me up in the deepest of dungeons! I deserve it.

                                Hey in limerick form ok
                                Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
