« Romeo
If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
 
Juliet
Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss. »

3 questions~

 

1) is the costume permanent?

2) is it just the costume or the entire set? (I doubt it's the set, that'd be crazy)

3) Is there a limited number of entries allowed?

 

:p_hi:

Harkoa to answer you : It's just a permanent costume not a full set, and you can put entry as much as you want  :p_smile:

With a big shotgun and Barney on the floor
No more purple dinosaur

I'm doing this for real, fight me.

IGN: Kaliyan

 

Adapted from Hamlet

 

To fuse, or not to fuse? That is the question—
Whether ’tis luckier for the costume to improve
The runeslots and appearance of outrageous fortune,
Or to take zenny against a sea of mobs,
And, by opposing, farm them? To fuse, to buy—
No more—and by a fuse to say we receive
The Kirkena and the thousand useless costumes
That fuse is wont to—’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished! To desist, to persevere.
To persevere, perchance to gift—ay, there’s the rub,
For in that gift of Costume what dreams may come
When we have gambled off this financial sink,
Must give us pause. There’s the conundrum
That makes Valentine's Day gifts of so low fuse chance.
 
sorry sweetheart I'd try to fuse to get it for you if I had monies

I didn't knew it could be in spanish, well, i believe i'll give a shot, in english make rhymes is much harder.

...

normally, i would need a crush as inspiration, anyone got any suggestion to replace it to get inspiration?

 

At the moment im not in love with anyone or anything, so i can't write a love poem :c

a thought, your song (a villanelle)

Amidst the crowds, the revelry,
here two hearts bide in Prontera's square.
I pledge mine to you, and yours to me.

If merchants can’t our witness be,
these towering walls our bliss shall share
amidst the crowds. The revelry

peals louder yet - recall our glee
when met in Abaddon of Despair?
I pledged mine to you, and yours to me,

though we knew it not. Here, the key
to this Pandora heart - lay it bare
amidst the crowds, the revelry!

It's yours to bind close or set free
To trample on or shyly wear;
I pledge mine to you and yours. To me,

no greater prize could I foresee.
Kiss me sweetly now, without a care;
amidst the crowds, the revelry,
I've pledged mine to you, and yours to me.

Our Adventure
 
Welcome to West Mount Mjolnir,
Where it all begins,
The start of our journey,
and the meeting of friends.
 
We've travelled from Prontera's light grey stones,
to Verta Delta's clear blue water,
We've been through the bizarre and the normal,
But being with you has made me stronger.
 
Midgarts would be incomplete without you,
Mandragoras and Rockers would lose the will to sing,
Thinking of you makes my heart flutter,
As light as a Gold Creamy's wing.
 
I know things are bound to happen,
I know things always have the chance to change,
As time goes on people will disappear,
But I hope you will never go out of range.
 
With your blessing I hope to rank beyond,
All the others who are after your heart,
If I have to, I'll fend them off,
Like a master of Martial Arts.

If your really behaving as such due to not winning another event (i watch the forums)... thats pretty childish behaviour.

 

btw > I do agree that the scribble drawing on the drawing event itself was not neccessary but theres no need for u to stoop to that level in order to make ur point xD

I will leave u with my favourite, hilarious and totally irrelevant quote : its better to remain silent and have people think ur an idiot then to open ur mouth and confirm the doubt (might not be exact wording but close enough > <) 

 

If you watch the forums, as you claim, then you'd know for yourself?  Make up your own mind if I'm acting rationally (and offering only the minimum effort needed for participation) or out of spite (entering this with a deliberately poor entry only because I didn't win a popularity vote and random raffle)?  I agree with the second statement, and the pink bit too.  I wonder how strongly you agree with the pink bit.

 

Well, I guess my first attempt has been summarily dismissed by the only judge that matters.  I am extremely curious to see if the other poems, (at "that level"), are accepted.  Regardless, I've penned another poem about love and inconsistency.

 

IGN: Darlah

 
Juliet
Oh Romeo, I doth expired nine and one hours
of my fair youth in MS Prontera.
A fair youth that will never return
but could once instead be on your lips!
To pen muh masperpis
and twas not rewarded a fair prize!
Worth not half the the time I, Juliet, did slather upon it.
Though the bite of the poring stings less
Whost can judge the finesse
of its effort as less?
Than that of Baphomet the greatest!
 
Rest in peace  :^(
 
Romeo NeoMontague
You won my heart <3, but only to you, 
my sweetest ewe! 
This effort of thine
is not short of divine.
Born of your own palms 
like coconuts from palms.
To all others, who darest
offer but similar morsel
of work and sweat of brow
onto threads whereon I, Romeo, hold sway
Begone! Begone, I say!

Guys I'd like you to submit your own creation and by that I mean not to take an existing Poem like:

Roses are red

Violet are blue

And just change few words...

 

For those who are already submitting originals keep up the good work  :p_laugh:

You should maybe put that in the rules, rather than expecting people to know that the 'Roses are Red' type of poem is not acceptable.

Just did thanks.

We don't have that type of basic Poem in my country, never though I'd have to face that.

Ok yeze you know me, and I am actually offended that you say it's not an original. Yes it may follow the same format, but I changed the lines and at the time those four seemingly insignificant lines actually held quite a bit of sentimental value for the two of us (me and yue) and still continue to do so. If to you that does not count as poetry or is not good enough to be an original for your contest then I don't understand what this contest is supposed to be about. Poetry and originality are defined uniquely by each person and i understand that, and perhaps what I wrote just doesn't meet your criteria for determining either. I will remove my post from here. I know it probably doesn't mean anything that one person would remove their poem, but if what I wrote with my heart as childish as it may seem does not count as original or my creation to you and I would assume the other judge/judges I would rather just keep it to myself.

This poem talks about an old warrior who found love and pride for the city of Morroc, I hope you like it.

Language: Spanish


"Algunos dicen que el amor hacia la Tierra es insolente
Otras lenguas hablan de este amor como insensato
En mi caso, siento su pureza latiendo en mi corazón infiltrado
La pureza de una ciudad insaciable, calmada y combatiente

Morroc, en tu gente encuentro lealtad
Morroc, en tus calles encuentro la nostalgia
Morroc, en tus campos encuentro un sitio libre de maldad
Morroc, lo único que me pido, es que siempre me dejes entrar

Sinceramente tuyo, por siempre, este humilde trovador
Que con los años ha visto su carne desgarrada
Un admirador que con sangre ardiente derramada
Logró encontrar en tu interior, la paz en su corazón."



EDIT: Forgot to add my IGN and gender.

Gender: Male.

There was once a Priest named Maggie

Her healing was very daggy

Night after night

With no improvement in sight

It turns out she was just laggy.

O, my love is like a Flower of Hinalle,
That is newly sprung in Payon Forest.
O, my love is like the melody,
That is sweetly played Rocker's Violinist.

As beautiful as you, my lovely Rosina,
So deep in love am I,
And I will love you still, my Dear,
Till all Alberta Sea go dry.

Till all Alberta Sea go dry, my Dear,
And the Gold Ore melt in Dimensional Crack!
O I will love you still, my Dear,
While the Source of Life shall have no crack.

And fare you well, my only Love,
And fare you well a little while!
And I will come again, Rosina my Love,
Although it were ten thousand mile!

RO2 officially started in May,

Game is advertised as free 2 play,

Enter ImHornyDad a failed priest to be,

Here comes Mom, sis and bro joining the Horny Family,

 

Random people comes up to me,

Complimenting my IGN is a sight to see,

One young lady spotted the Monk,

Running over to recruit this drunk,

 

Whatever happened that day was a blur,

That monk was not captured that's for sure,

The same young lady tried once again,

This time bringing all her lady friends,

 

Horny Monk blessed with so much love,

Joined a guild that quickly became hand in glove,

Naked, Naked everywhere,

A great time to start a love affair,

 

The story is now on hold,
Recent events made of mold,
Dyir desert appeared too soon,
Unleashing bugs right at noon.

 

Hope this event isn't rigged,

People now-a-days becoming twigs,

No love lost no love found,

Always fun screwing around.

 

 

-ImHornyDad
