In honor of St. Patrick's Day, I am sponsoring an EVE Limerick contest.

Basic Contest Rules:

1. Create a new original EVE related Limerick.

2. Post it in this thread by 27 Mar 2014. Forum thread timestamp will be used to determine the cutoff.

3. Prizes: The 2 limericks with the most "likes" will win 100 million ISK. In addition, I will choose my 2 favorites and award them a Phantasm BPC. Finally, winners of my previous poetry contest can vote for their favorite. The winner chosen by this group will win a Cynabal BPC

There once was a carebear from Hek
Who mined while watching Star Trek
The New Order came
Oh what a shame
Nothing left but a pitiful wreck

There once was a game called Eve
Got carebears all riled and peeved.
They shot the rats,
Those silly t*ats
Why not fck off and play wow for Gods sake

Hardly an example of my literary talents but all I could be arsed to come up with tbh.

Aaaaaaand relax.

In a frig, on a gate, in a system,
I'd wished my AB was a Gistum,
Decloaked into a blob,
Overheated my prop mod,
But still got caught by that Tristan.

That man is the noblest creature may be inferred from the fact that no other creature has contested his claim.

An Amarrian princess named Mya,
Had succumbed to her lover's desire,
She said, "This is a terrible sin,
but now that you're in,
could you shove it a few inches higher!"




Ed, I can't claim this is original, but it's my favourite limerick and I couldn't resist.

1)

A pilot who once flew a Drake,
Left hundreds of dead in his wake,
He collected their corpses,
Using multiple sources,
The sick b*stard then baked them into a cake...


2)

A capsuleer who flew a big Raven,
Thought Jita 4-4 was a safe haven.
He undocked his ship,
His warning signals did tick,
It was obvious that he was no Maven...

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

Dear RLML Caracal,
Don't panic, I'm not even fleet tackle,
you don't need your friends,
to come, smash me both ends,
it's an 5 second gank, not a battle

There once was a fella from Jita
Who desired his wallet be fitter
So he found a good deal
Which it seems wasn't real
And now he is feeling quite bitter.

In space they can't hear you scream,
But tears they mine like coal seam,
Don't give them the joy,
when they try to annoy,
it's only a game,
Be serene.

A contest of poems was the calling
So I penned a swift ditty whilst hauling
But there's always a risk
Of corrupt "likes for ISK"
And a winner whose rhyme is appalling...

There once was a pilot from Nantucket,
Whose ship was big red rust bucket.
He was told you'll go far,
If you fly Minmatar.
But after the latest balance pass he said **** it.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

There once was a forum for EvE
Whose posters were really quite mean
They said give me your stuff
or harden the F*** up
So now i play WoW with ease

'No scram' Comet was his preferred M.O.

There once was a pod from Nantucket.
He recycled his passwords thinking "f*** it."
His accounts all got hacked.
His characters got sacked.
And the GM's just told him: "go suck it."

Change your passwords.Big smile

I once had a thread locked for lack of content.
But its message was very important.
It was buried by ISDs,
And I was banned for 2 weeks,
Now the search function shows it to be non-existent.

Now Im sure the above violates some rules,
And Ill share with you just a few,
Im sure that I broke Ten and Eleven,
The filter kept me from breaking Seven,
But I sure as **** didn't break Twenty Two.

Now, This all may just be fantasy,
Or maybe it actually did happen to me,
For im forbidden to tell,
Except in private convo or Eve-mail,
I guess youll have to mail me and see.

Oh little miner, your barge in debris so soon,
When you got acquainted with a friendly Goon,
Such a cruel universe, with nothing but fears,
An angry letter was sent, expressing all of his tears,
He was blown up again, that same afternoon.

There once was a corp called Stay Frosty,
who's HAC doctrine was proving quite costly,
so they shipped down to frigs,
and tanked with their sig,
then AB'd their way to a victory.
