Summer Limerick Competition

The event runs from Wednesday, June 17th to Wednesday, July 8th.

Definition of a limerick:


Limericks are short poems of five lines having rhyme structure AABBA. It is officially described as a form of 'anapestic trimeter'. The 'anapest' is a foot of poetic verse consisting of three syllables, the third longer (or accentuated to a greater degree) than the first two: da-da-DA.

Rules

1. One entry per account
2. Nothing Rude/No Profanity
3. Must be based on Forge of Empires
4. Must follow the rules about a limerick

Prizes

1st ~ 500 Diamonds
2nd ~ 300 Diamonds
3rd ~ 200 Diamonds
4th - 10th ~ 100 Diamonds each

There will also be one special prize of 250 Diamonds to the best Limerick as chosen by the Admin Team.

Any entries submitted either before the start date or after the end date shown above will be disqualified.

Once the competition is over we will set up polls in groups of 10 for you to vote on each poll running for 3 days. The top 30 from all the entries will go forward to the next round of voting and then we'll have another vote to obtain the top 10 and pick the grand prize.

A hidden forum has been set up here for you to submit your enteries

A sultan called Ali
Invited a rogue at Abu Dhabi
The harem he had seen
turned him into a roqueen
A witchdoctor supported her "new me"

There once was a man from Dublin
Who got tired from all the wheel shuffling
So he contacted his neighbors
That did him no favors
So now you could say he won nothing .

There once was a man from Nantucket
Who kept all his cash in a bucket.
But his daughter, named Nan,
Ran away with a man
And as for the bucket, Nantucket.:)

Awoke to a new neighbourhood,
greeted them all as you should,
8 catapults they saw,
as their goods left the door,
now they know why my name's not 'good'!

A mouse in her room woke Miss Dowd
She was frightened--it must be allowed.
Soon a happy thought hit her --
To scare off the critter,
She sat up in bed and meowed.

Entitled: Thanks Boys!

My sons recommended a game,
To my knowledge it had no acclaim,
But with battles and trades,
Craft and Cunning in Spades,
All Hail Forge of Empires by name!


Thanks for a great game...and letting me enter! :)

Be Blessed!

There was an old player of Houndsmoor
Who never did anything wrong.
He climbed up a tree of love,
To examine the field of scarecrow,
That innocuous old player of Houndsmoor.

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

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!

With winter quests and Christmas treats with Grivus and her crew
Build up your empire, research the tree, a world map to take a view

The cheeky jester may take your coins, don't fear its not in vain
He may surprise you with a diamond or two, its all part of the game

There's forge point packs, a global chat, there's lots for you to do
Great buildings rise throughout the ages, be sure this games for you

Start in the iron age, progress right through, until you reach the next
Build up your army with rogues and troops, and try and fight the best

Build amusement parks to lumber mills and fights in GvG
A pleasant time you'll have on here, why not sign up and see !

There was a young king of a village
and this the neighbours did Pillage
It grew slowly at first
But then with a Burst
Because now the neighbours are pillaged

Every day i wake up with desire,
to play again Forge of Empire.
Every day i polish my motivation,
every quest leads me to a different situation.
I always remember my father's words: I've told you never to play with fire!

A woman whose name was Greva
who cooked for her daughter Eva
In summer she ran
Casinos by plan
And banked all her loot in Geneva

There was a young man who played forge,
it’s Forge Points he’d covert and gorge...
To his mates he would say; today is the day..
My GB’s will be stronger than yours.:D

There was a young man from Geneva
Thought he was better than Greva
They went for a bath
Then had a good laugh
And both caught FOE fever!
