Hang on...
I sat next to the Duchess of FoE;
It was just as I feared it would be:
Her rumblings abdominal
Were truly phenomenal,
And everyone thought it was me!

A jester who wandered the nation
considered himself a sensation
but his jokes were so lame
that a clown he became
and a target for rude defamation.

There was a fair princess called Alice
playing Empire's Forge in her palace.

She said: "Be not afraid,

​

it's for points that I raid,​

no plunder and, truly, no malice."

In Houndsmoor, plundering he did go
Showing no mercy, I’ll have you know
“It’s just part of the game!”
He was heard to exclaim
“I need goods to erect my Chateau.”

Then neighborhood change dealt him a blow
His rank went from high to extremely low
Now he too knows defeat
(Schadenfreuda is sweet)
It’s his Karma, and most apropos.

There is a player down under
who thought he'd build a wonder
it took him 12 weeks
because of the geeks
who think it's funny to plunder.

A rogue and three musketeers
Went out for a crate of beers
The rogue, when he drank
Turned into a tank
And blew up a couple of spears!

Last, but not least, congratulations to the following entry for being chosen by the FoE Team to be read in the InnoGames TV August Episode:

I was loving the Summer Event,
Losing track of where all the time went,
Winning tickets from Greva,
Spinning wheel in a fever,
Sadly now all my tickets are spent.

And Tracey's choice has to be the entry from Starzaan titled Ode to Mega T...

Ode to Tzizzledawg

There once was a turnip called Tracey,
Who secretly was a bit racy.
So I offered to strip off,
She sad 'no I'll rip off
Your shorts with my teeth, cause you're tasty!'

The end.
